2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Last year was supposed to be a relatively strong class and most of the rookies were complete *** in their rookie year. The NBA is just too strong right now for these guys to come in and have an impact by and large.

I think Rob needs to reach Trae Young levels of offense to be Trae Young....but there is a lot of room between Trae Young and outside of the NBA. The idea that it's one or the other is just silly.

He's the best player in the draft and it's not particularly close and it's going to be hilarious when the NBA finds out.

Bub/Edey 2024.

Let’s get another pick higher in the draft.

Lakers are targeting Sexton. Remove the '27 protections (I equate that to the value of a FRP), this years Laker pick no.17, and give a good contract/player back then I would do it. Maybe give them the 32nd pick.

There's not when you are 6'1 165

There isn’t a lot of room between Trae Young and strictly being a bench player on a serious team.

Lakers dont really have anyone I would be interested in outside of Jalen Hood Schifino (laugh away). I doubt they would give up Reaves. I also think they are a 2nd apron team so they cant even aggregate players meaning you would have to take back D'Lo or Rui and not be able to get JHS.

Castle falls to 5, the Jazz trade up with the Pistons, offering John Collins, 10, and a future first?

That is a vastly different statement than what I said.

Let’s make it sweeter/weirder

Renegotiate ‘27 so it’s a *drum roll* SUPER SWAP (where the Lakers get the worst of the Jazz/Wolves/Cavs/Lakers pick [no protections]) and their ‘28 pick (+ #17 this year and hopefully any 2nds years down the road).

As of right now if the board fell the way I think it does I think we’d probably take Carter.

I don’t think it’s vastly different but okay.
