Following Potential 2025 Draftees

It was definitely taken as a shot against anyone who has an opinion instead of listing out those with real intel. Idk what her actual intentions were, but they did not take this well lol. She’s probably most well known for her anti Zack Edey campaign.

Thankfully Cy showed me the light on Edey and I found myself on the right side of this one :D

Yeah, I don't get in to all of that. I also don't mind people with Intel being wrong. Nobody gets the full picture and there are a lot of opinions mixed in. I think it's fun to do mock drafts on Jazzfanz, and don't mind that other people do them on just opinions.
If I had my preference though, big boards would be meant for opinions whereas mock drafts would be based on Intel.

Draft "intel" coming from the clubs has a good percentage chance of being purposely misleading. Agents as well because they ae trying to create a market for their teams. The best intel is who has worked out for what teams or has NOT worked out for which teams.

How on earth is that the best intel?

The only thing you can take from that is agent/players desires more than team desires. And isnt necessarily true either because it might be a product of schedule conflicts.
 
Team workouts can be deceiving
A player can come in and have an incredible workout for Jazz
Then stink for every other team
Not sure what that means though :confused: :confused:

I will say the draft never turns out the way we think it will. Usually the top 2-3 picks is usually what we think they will be then the draft for the fans tend to go in every which direction for the fans.

I’d say it’s a little pretentious and gatekeepy…but it also declared war on draft twitter. The funny part is all the chaos this caused in a very niche community. Comments had to be turned off because this pissed off a lot of people.

She’s had some bad takes in the past I believe and so she wasn’t a fav already. All I can remember was some specific Edey hate. I’ve listened to her a couple times in places and never felt like she was great. Access does not equal expertise. Either way it’s just an unnecessary shot at draft twitter for no reason at all.
 
Alright so someone threw out bigger Hornacek for Kon and I can’t lie… I love it and I’m in. Just can’t decide if I want to go with Big Horny or Thicc Horny… leaning towards Thicc Horny.

Her thing is she really rates the HS McDonalds players very highly because she follows/interviews them throughout their HS career.
