What's new

Following Potential 2020 draftees

That 7'3" kid is ridiculously skilled/fluid for his size and age. Pretty unbelievable.

Poor guy - must be bored out of his mind playing against middle schoolers.
 
Bruh I don't need ****. I'm good. Keep those limited/polluted thoughts to yourself. It's really not that serious, at-worst, I enjoy basketball like greedy people enjoy material possessions, or how religious nuts enjoy primitive superstitious drivel. Y'all try to hassle me for it too, like I'd be better off spending my time getting drunk and trying to avoid DUI's like millions of other Americans.. The ****s absurd... Send 100 more trolls to this thread, you'll see I remain unfazed.


George Carlin once said, “When you're born into this world, you're given a ticket to the freak show. When you're born in America your given a front row seat. And some of us get to sit there with a notebooks, and I'm a notebook guy” - No matter how much you want to hope I'm something else, that's all I am. (An outside observer, who's well aware there's nothing emotionally at stake)

I'm really not cheerleading for any specific outcome, I'm just tracking news from a subject that I've always enjoyed. Sure I have some seemingly trivial preferences, I might say I hope something happens, truthfully whatever happens, It's not going to affect me much either way.. I usually have to reduce myself to those to those cheerleading for outcome type of topics to entertain sports chatter these days, because that's what sports people like to do..



Nothing creepy about looking for tomorrows stars today. Look at whats really going in with sports recently, whens the last time you've seen a Fan-Duel or Draftkings ad?!?,gambling guised as "Premium Fantasy Sports games"... Everyones looking for the next big thing, that agenda's being pushed 100x more than it ever was, I'm not pushing that agenda, I'm just adjusting to it. All I'm doing is trying to stay ahead of the curve..Plus I genuinely enjoy watching basketball.


I've posted before that Basketball is one of the USA's great exports, been saying that to people since I was in highschool and I still stand-by it.









Plus you have no idea how I schedule my time either, I'm a hell of a multi-tasker, I joke with people who've seen me in action that in a past life I was one of these one man band dudes.

I literally queue up videos and articles in advance and glance at them when something else is busy, or on a short break between projects. I can peruse thru all of my sources on this subject and spot/queue updates, in under 1 minute.

I probably take less time watching these video's/reading the 1 page articles than your average smoker does taking cigarette breaks... .. . .. . . If i needed to make time to stay in the loop, I would, luckily I don't need to.

Always said I'm a basketball fan 365 days of the year.

I have definitely witnessed some terrible parenting(child beauty pageant type ****) in the years I've followed this, There's players who make it bigtime, there's also many more on the other end of the spectrum, I followed those stories too. a younger me would cited a bunch of examples. I don't want to pile on speaking bad about players that didn't make it though, I'm not about that.

The best way I've found to keep up with this topic(and many others) is to try and stay ahead of the normal pace set.So I keep my ear to the ground when bigtime prospects show up in younger classes, I like to compare and contrast traits and finer nuances, **** like that, or this stuff wouldn't hold my attention if there wasn't great uncertainty involved.
Seems like you would be a great resource to a pro team, or maybe a college recruiting service. I love your passion on this subject and you apparently have the ability to hold and organize a ton of this sort of info in your brain.
 
I just need help with the math. How old are these kids now? Maybe 13? Born in 2002 or so?

serious question, no momo!
 
This is the land after the 2000's :P, there will be players born in the year 2000 in the draft before this one..

The current rules state that international players are eligible to declare for the draft in the year they turn 19. So foreign born players from 2001 would be eligible. Players born in 1998 would be automatically eligible for this draft, as ones born in 1993 were auto-eligible in the 2015 draft.

I'd venture to say these rules will be changed by the time this thread really gains some traction though.
Thought you might be interested in an event coming to Lexington.

Wenyen Gabriel will play in Lexington in December.

Ben Roberts has the details on the event that will feature Thon Maker, Rawle Alkins, DeAndre Ayton, Jarred Vanderbilt and 2018 star Marvin Bagley.

Should be a great two days.

Bryan Antoine will be a 1st rd pick. You can take it to the bank. There's shades of Markelle Fultz, they've got identical builds....

There's some sort of big man renaissance going on in NYC that's about to hit CBB in waves. Here's this classes representative.

He's definitely old for the class. Born in Jamaica (The country) 6'10-6'11 and athletic.
