2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

Will Barton is a good 3 inches shorter?

he was 6'5" without shoes at the combine.

Chomche's shot looked bad but he looked comfortable shooting it (because at some point he realized he couldn't do anything else on offense). I doubt he ever becomes a legit shooter.

For a second pick, if he can develop a shot (it looks pretty to me) and refine his defense more, I think he becomes a well balanced center who defends in space, the perimeter and shores up the defense. That would be a great role player and maybe even a starter.

He's super young so the range of growth and possibilities is wider.than most. If his midpoint is a role player then his ceiling could be something special (a less explosive taller Giannis with a shot).

Yes Mogbo is more electric and flashier and is better but he does have one glaring weakness.

Ah, so 1.5 inches, so yeah, fairly close weight/height comp.

His shot looked awful. His footwork was really bad and he traveled on a wide open 3 (not called). If anyone closed out in him at all it would be ugly. He's not going to be Giannis.

I think it's pretty hard to look bad defensively as a guy his size in a scrimmage setting, so I'm not really impressed. I think he is a fine development pick after 40 or so.

With Mogbo he's just a unique player. IDK what his role would be. I guess it would be like what we had going on with Jared Vanderbilt

I think this guy should make it in the league.

He'll have opportunities.

I want Edey (if we can risk it trade back with OKC to remove the convey, but it is Presti so who knows), AJ (do a trade with the Suns to get their pick and might have give up 29 to move to 22), and Chomche with our picks.

Damn, Cody Williams is 178. He doesn't not have the muscle genetics his brother was gifted

I question whether that was accurate. He was 190 at Colorado. Even Brandon Ingram was 186 and Cody is a bit bigger.

I mean, we can't trust what colleges tell us about their players measurements.

Also what you smoking? Ingram was 6'8 wo shoes and a 7'3 wingspan, significantly bigger than Cody

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

His brother was like 180 at the same age

How in earth would you know that?

Dub was also 2 inches shorter, so the ratio isn't close even if what you are saying is true .

So we really think Danny is enamored with someone (bj armstrong video)? Any conspiracy theories? I’m gonna say reed sheppard or kyle filipowski
