2024 NBA Draft Thread

[thunderc]

So who is Presti going to make a star at 12?

 

[The Q]

Bronny is younger and shoots better

Not saying I’d pick him, but that’s a good path to bronny getting drafted…staying in school

Everyone is really forgetting what drafting Bronny is for. He could be a poor man's Thanasis Antetokoumpo and he'd still be worth drafting, for similar reasons as Thanasis

That said ^^^^, in the other thread bks posted Shams saying LeBron won't leave LA just to play with Bronny so who knows

Oh yeah.

I get it

Js Mitchell wasn’t draftable after his freshman year so it’s a tough comparison

 

[The Q]

So who is Presti going to make a star at 12?

Glad you asked

My list of most thunder like picks

Filipowski (stretch 5 so they can keep playing 5 out, can switch around, and play next to Chet)

Salaun (long, athletic, high upside)

Cody Williams (see above, even better that it’s jalens brother)

Devin Carter (while a little shorter than they like, he’s super long and athletic, and can play next to shai)

Ron Holland (if he falls)

Hey All,

This is a great post about the upcoming NBA Draft.

I wanted to give you some insight into Bronny.

Some of you could be down on me last year for predicting that Bronny would be going to the Michigan Wolverines. He was very close to going there but wanted to develop at home at USC.

Sources close to me, including coaches who worked with Bronny’s former USC Coach Andy Enfield, are telling me that Bronny will not be playing NCAA basketball anymore.

The latest intel has Bronny on the edge of the NBA. I have heard discussions on Bronny going to the G League and some teams high on him are Iowa (Minnesotas team), the Cleveland Charge and the Fort Wayne Mad Ants (Indiana).

Honestly my best bet is Bronny going to Fort Wayne. Minnesota would love to have him to develop into Anthony Edwards type player and Cleveland is packed in the G League with Emoni Bates and Sharife Cooper at the helm.

The same sources think Bronny would do great in the Fort Wayne. Indiana loves their basketball and Bronny would be a star in his native Midwest. Throw in Lebron coming back to Midwest to mentor and tutor the G League star and you have a movie in the making.

Everybody wants to believe an old statement without actual context that Lebron wants to play with his kid over the current statement that he's not jumping to whomever's team that drafts Bronny. Feeding into this narrative would really hurt Bronny's career path, basically being drafted as bait. Of course Lebron doesn't want that for his kid.

Did other teams acquiring Freak's brothers draw him out of Milwaukee? No, Thanasis was a wasted roster spot until the Bucks were able to acquire him 5 years later. Kostas and Alex never stuck anywhere and are both playing overseas.

It’s funny you say that because from your posts I can tell you have a raggedy Afro, and three cents to your name. Get up with the times my brother.

Make that two cents to your name because you lost your first cents.

I think he’s legit. The Braves fan immediately went racist when challenged. That’s on brand.

You mean the Braves, Angels, and Hawks 'fan'? I'm still skeptical.

 

[The Q]

If I were the San Antonio Spurs, I would simply use all 4 of my picks (and maybe some future capital to move up from 8) to ensure that I drafted four members of the current national champions and have a better version of the Nova Knicks....
