2023 NBA Draft Thread 2

And as for Jamahl Mosley, I’m seeking a repeat of this:

Stick around for the Pat Williams interview.
9% is way better than 1.52%

Wont hold my breathe but wont be mad either.

It feels like more of the top talent is participating

Think they’re required to now, new change to the CBA or something.

The good news is that there is a better chance the Magic win the lottery (9%) than stay at #6 (8.62%).

Orlando has a 27.61% chance to go Top-3, where the draft "ends", and 37.23% overall to upgrade from #6 (i.e. top-4).

Otherwise we have a 45.85 of staying at the current slot or moving up.

I am ok with these odds.

Sign me for #4.

I definitely don't think it ends at three. Wemby, Scoot, Thompsons, Miller, and Whitmore all get that high upside tag pretty consistently. That's six deep.

Nobody here is going to agree on who-at-4. It will be ...

... for example, I think Hendricks will hear his name called at #4, and his name is not even on your list.

@drsd

Common problem for a lot of drafts. I'll be firmly in the Amen camp for no4 because I am looking for a way to peacefully divorce from this idea Fultz will be a 3pt shooter next year.

Edit: With how chill you have been otherwise. I guess this shouldn't surprise me that you would hope for some entertainment.

I think out of sheer boredom though our board would argue over trading the 2nd or 3rd pick, and yes, even find a way to bitterly argue who is the better player.

Hendricks getting clout as a future star is amazing! I'd root for him. I haven't seen that yet though.

I'm still struggling with Brandon Miller. Culture issues really scare me. Statistically he's one of the better wing prospects we've seen in the last 13 years.

I still don't think we take a forward or a big with our pick, especially given all the guard rich options this draft.

Let's move on from this thread. We have a new one now

[ChosenSavior]

There's a new thread up. Closing this one. Good conversation here from everybody. Draft lottery is gonna be tense but exciting tonight!
