2024 NBA Draft Thread

They did that with Caruso before the Topic pick. That was my only "concern", that one of those guys will have to come off the bench. Then again, it's not like the Thunder have open starting positions. No big in day 1 for them though, must be confident in getting their guy in FA.

They likely getting Hartenstein after the Knicks traded for Bridges and paid OG.

The Knicks are now limited on what they can spend now on their FA's and others......unless they plan on going over the 2nd apron.

Because the Thunder can afford to do so. Presti is looking long term, like the next decade.

I would say the next 3-5 years, when the extensions/contracts will start to stack up.

They were limited on Hartenstein regardless, but even more so now.

I believe before the 2 transactions happened the Knicks could offer him like 16 mill per....

Yup and when that happens the trio is going to be a unstoppable machine.

That’s not going to be enough unless he wants to piss off the players union

I think you get him now after the Knicks traded for Bridges and paid OG.

The Knicks are going to have to roll with Mitch Rob at C and Sims as the backup, unless they find a bargain basement FA to be their primary backup C.

We shall see.....

Flying to Vegas Sunday for a few days, right about when FA kicks off.....be on my cell non stop.

Yup and with Presti we just don’t know. He may not have any plans to get a rebounder.

round 2 today at 4,right?

I think he will. Hartenstein showed what he can do on the Knicks.

On the Thunder? Y'all would be scary good next season. Hartenstein does not have to score to make an impact. Rebound, pass, defend, set screens, shit.....he was solid with the Clippers and really showed what he can do with the Knicks.

I wish we had the kind of money to get him.

Yes.

The Wolves really nailed the draft.

Added 2 players in Dillingham and Shannon who can really contribute, needed since they are limited in what they can do in FA.

Yep.

Seems like the Wizards are doing what others are doing, trading off the best players for picks and looking to rebuild that way.

Better late than never I guess.

Just hope they can have the patience to see it through this time.

The closest they got to rebuilding the right way in my lifetime was Wall/Beal team.

And that ended terribly because they held on way too long to both.

True. Maybe they are learning from what others are doing?

What do you think about Brian Keefe.....any opinion yet?
