Denver is down 4 players now, I never want to see players injured but this might help us. On the other hand Denver is only 5 game ahead of 14th place in the West. The West is stacked right now, everyday the standings change.

Why do people here like Reddish? He shooting under 40% from the field and despite being near 40% from 3, his ft% which is statistically a better indicator of actual shooting ability is below average for a wing. Besides chucking he doesn't even do that much. Dude looking like a bustier version of Wiggins.

lol I mean I kind of do, they drafted right and put the right players in place , and I like coach Malone, he's a NYC guy. The thing is the west is so stacked that Denver can't fall out of playoffs too far or we won't get the pick and they're only 5 games ahead of the 14th place Rockets who I expect to make playoffs. They need to be 10th in the west, that might be the lowest they can go so we can get the pick.

They’ve barely had a rebuild. It was literally thanks to Melo helping fleece the Knicks. They’ve been gifted a Jokic in the 2nd round, landed Murray at 7th and now somehow landed Melo 2.0 in Micheal Porter Jr.

Nuggets are set as a team of the future. They don’t need no more picks.

Kris Wilkes, Jaylen Hands & Moses Brown.

Charles Bassey.

Lugentz Dort.

Simi ****.

Games like last night further lower my Bol hype no matter how tantalizing his offensive potential maybe. He's just not going to be able to stay on the floor when teams go small. With him and Allen, were looking at two of our "core" young guys basically sitting out if teams go small.

Not sure we can afford that

if the Nets keep winning we'll be looking moreso at Rui Hachimura or Brandon Clarke imo

Nets have allegedly been caught scouting this kid multiple times.

Sean Marks has sent his soldiers to scout Ja Morant.

It wouldn't shock me if Morant ends up on the Knicks tbh. He seems like he'd be a perfect pick for them since they need a PG.

I think it's likely that we still land a lotto pick. Our last *fourteen* games this season are against playoff teams, so we might get squeezed out of the playoff picture in the final weeks. With how stacked the West is, we could miss the postseason by half a game, turn around and get the 11th pick. Not the worst scenario. In that range I'd be praying that Hachimura falls to us.

Hachimura is actually falling down in the drafts to like mid to late teens

I've noticed that Tankathon has him going 16th right now, I'd love for us to get him. Seems like he has some decent upside compared to other late lotto prospects, like Deandre Hunter for example.

The way I see Rui. He'll have the same placement as Mikal Bridges of last draft.

This is why a player with Bol's height, touch, and skill is invaluable - not even Lebron could stop this
