I knew it was a sneaky deep draft but it didn’t really hit me until we were in the late 20s and still seeing some of the names left on the board… crazy
Depends on what they offer. If Memphis gives us future draft picks instead of Smart, I think the Spurs will consider it. I think they want to stay off longer term money like Smart's so they can swing in FA this year and especially '25
Hornets should draft Donovan Clingan with the 6th. He rebounds as well as mark williams. He has a post game witch mark williams still doesn't have. He has a potential 3 point range jump shot, witch Also mark doesn't have. And most Underrated of all.. He Has the passing gift. Witch Mark will never have. I think he is the right pick for there future. Big man that can pass dont grow on trees... Pack up mark with Bridges and get some draft capital for the next few years. Hornets need a defensive identity....
Marcus Smart is 30 years old and oft-injurred. Why would the Spurs think that getting him and the #9 pick would be worth a trade to Memphis to allow them to take Clingan? It would be better for the Spurs to take Clingan themselves, because Smart plus the #9 pick are not worth a lot. It is not likely that Stephon Castle is available at 8 for the Spurs. Dalton Knecht will not put Devin Vassell on the bench. Vassell moved out??? 😂 These trades and picks are not very “smart” for the Spurs!
In this scenario the Spurs do not pass on Saluun. If Spurs are not able to get off a trade they may take Saluun at 4 thinking Castle would be available at 8. Portland could take Salaun at 7
It's funny that people who don't like Reed Sheppard, say he's 6'1", and to the people who like him, he's 6'3". It's interesting looking back on players combine measurements. For instance, Donovan Mitchell was 6'1.25" at the combine (without shoes)....he's a half inch shorter than Reed Sheppard.
Really? Sheppard has a 42" max vert. compared to Mitchell's 40.5" when comparing their combine measurements. In fact, he tied for the highest max vert. among players in this year's draft. And despite having a much shorter wingspan (7 inches), Sheppard averaged twice as many blocks a game (when comparing their college stats) than Mitchell, and averaged 2.5 steals a game to Mitchell's 1.5. He jumps pretty high, and gets his hand on the ball a lot for being "unathletic".
@@ericmausbach1808 That 42 inch vertical means nothing because he wasn’t dunking on defender’s heads…and he also struggled getting shots and making it to the rim. Those struggles will more than likely increase in the pros.
DBG the connection you mention about Buzelis is Arn Tellem’s son Michael who is his agent. Arn is a VP for Pistons. Buzelis also has links to Bulls GM who is Lithuanian. Might Bulls trade up for Buzelis? 😮
finally found someone else that thinks that edey to the bulls would be a good move. vucevic got to go and this is the perfect player to replace him with
You guys are looking at the Kings the wrong way. First, Fox is not signing now because if he makes all NBA next season, then he can have a massive deal. He's betting on himself, not that he's wondering where the Kings will be. It would be absolutely stupid for him to sign now. Second, the Kings desperately need size, length, and a brute who can bring some attitude, so players like Tristan Da Silva, Kel'el Ware, Tyler Smith, and even Ryan Dunn, who is a phenomenal defender, can't shoot, but his defense is for real. He might be the brute the Kings need. Even Edey might work because the KIngs lack size and length. There's no way they are taking a 6 foot PG in Dillingham with Fox, Monk, D Mitchell, and Ellis. Last, I would be surprised if the Kings don't trade the pick for a player that I specified above like Kuzma, BI, or Jeremi Grant. Again, all the Kings talk about is improving their length and size.
Please stop mocking Bronny at #17 why does everyone get a thought out pick and both of you guys just go oh yea Bronny to the Lakers at 17 just skip the Lakers since you guys clearly dont care about them
You saying it over and over does not make it so. If not for the injury to Topic, he would be the pick for the Spurs. Unfortunately, they are left with the second-best pick who is Castle. HIs shooting will improve. The rest of his game is already there.
I knew it was a sneaky deep draft but it didn’t really hit me until we were in the late 20s and still seeing some of the names left on the board… crazy
Once again everyone else gets a well thought out draft except us who get the meme bronny pick again thx man
If Zach Edey is on the board at 17 when it’s rhe Lakers selection. They better take him instead of Bronny.
No way Spurs will trade with Memphis

Zach edey going to be the best player coming out of this draft class.

Have a really strong feeling they going to take Edey with the 6th. Definitely could be wrong but we’ll see tomorrow

Get 2 pieces or Clingan who likely can't be on the floor with Wemby

If Salaun is their guy at 4, they can take Castle/Dillingham/Carter at 8 whichever is their bpa and get a dynamic guard there easily.
Castle worked out for the Hornets tho I'm pretty sure. But yeah... I kinda want Cody
Denver just invited Tyler Smith to a workout a day ago. There’s no way they draft Bona ahead of him
Hey if our blazers do edey at 7, the pnw will have mass suicide
As a spurs fan there’s no one I want less than smart
Looks like y’all missed the part where castle did visit with charlotte
Castle already worked out for the hornets we take him at 6
The Lakers are not looking for that. They want a center or a wing

Mitchell is way more athletic than Reed. It’s not even close.

bro im ngl u kinda look like Donovan Clingan.

So you have the spurs old man smart and old ass rookie Dalton just like that the average age went up 4 years
Please stop mocking Bronny at #17 why does everyone get a thought out pick and both of you guys just go oh yea Bronny to the Lakers at 17 just skip the Lakers since you guys clearly dont care about them
I mean if Atlanta wants to play 2k and rack up assets I won’t complain.
MARCUS SMART IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN CLINGAN WILL EVER BE DONT EVER SAY THAT AGAIN
You lost me with the Edey and bronny picks...cartoonish
Well the Edey one wasn't tbf
Hawks need to.....burn it down, move back, set future assets.......
Sheppard is the most overrated player in the draft
Just like Jabari Smith a couple of years ago. It’s the fans and media hyping him up.
Always some ignorant dude that doesn’t know shit about the Lakers mocking bronny to lakers at #17.
Castle is not good at the one for us. Quit mocking him he’s KJ all over again we don’t need that
Speak for yourself. Castle is exactly what we need for defense. KJ suck at defense and is a very inconsistent shooter.
You saying it over and over does not make it so.
If not for the injury to Topic, he would be the pick for the Spurs.
Unfortunately, they are left with the second-best pick who is Castle. HIs shooting will improve. The rest of his game is already there.
