2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

I dont think him and Salaun are even that comparable. I see Salaun as someone who is more in the mold of Lauri Markkanen as an off-ball player and Dadiet I see his upside being more Gordon Hayward

Dadiet to me is more comparable to Buzelis. They are basically the same height/wingspan. I think Buzelis has an inch in both departments, but Dadiet measured with a higher standing reach. Athletically they tested similarly, but Buzelis definitely looks more athletic in highlights. Dadiet has 20 lbs of mass on Buzelis and is 9 months younger. Dadiet is a much better shooter. Both project as big on-ball scorers if they reach their ceiling.

I wasn't referring to their style of play, I was just comparing them since I believe they play in the same league? FWIW I kind of get Salaun, but have never been super impressed with his film. Dadiet looks much more skilled.

Archie Goodwin = Michael Jordan
Cody Williams = bigger SGA
Keyshawn George = rich man’s Joe Ingles (the third best player on the Jazz during the Mitchell era, wherein they were dark horse contenders for multiple years).

Cool.

I happened to view Ignored content on this page. Now you're reminding me why you're on that list.

And you think Ingles is better than Mike Conley and Bojan Bogdanvoic, huh?

You’re not understanding what I’m saying. I’m talking about dudes you’ll look back five years later and say damn I passed on him because I had player A already.

But this works the same way when you miss out on a “good fit” player too. A good example is Jaquez on Miami and Podziemski on Golden State. Those guys would have been fantastic on the Jazz and they fell to the 2nd half of the draft. Those are both good fit guys for the Jazz at 10 and 15 and in hindsight would be top 10 picks in a redraft. The Jazz thought BPA was Udoka and it turned out Desmond Bane and Jaden McDaniels (who would have been perfect good fit guys) were passed up.

Absolutely.

Look, if your own words being repeated back to you is such a dagger to the heart, maybe it’s not me you should be upset with.

Saying that Archie Goodwin showed a competitive fire and intense look on his face like Michael Jordan isn't the same as saying Archie Goodwin is Michael Jordan, jackass. It's impressive that you would try to bring that from 11 years ago though.

Saying that Cody Williams has a small chance to develop like SGA, isn't the same as saying he's the next SGA, though he actually has that kind of ceiling. But I understand that would require nuance and discernment on your part, so nevermind. Oh, and Tony Jones chimed in and said Cody "might have the highest ceiling in the draft." So maybe go pick a bone with him.

Also, comparing Kyshawn George to Joe Ingles, when they have the same height/length/weight and have the same strengths and weaknesses entering the draft isn't a reach by any means.

So yeah, this is more time than I have allocated to exchange with you, and that's why you're on the Ignore list.
