Brother Harper is being traded to Milwaukee for the obvious Giannis trade.

Connect the dots bro this league is rigged. They setting up playoff teams lol

Even Philly got a piece of the action.

RIP Hornets/Jazz/Wizards irrelevant franchises with no following.

VJ being closer to 6'6 than expected makes him my guy atm.

Bailey would get me fired lol. Someone said he can learn to dribble from PG...and yeah sadly that almost worked on me lol.

ideally tho you see if the Spurs want to trade down perhaps for the Clippers pick?

3rd is of course the most tricky spot of this draft lol. Still can’t complain…we got a serious gift.

Watch on YouTube

Only makes 44% shots at the rim on halfcourt
20% on pull-up 3s

I trust Morey's team to draft well. The only thing I trust them with, other than not losing trades.

Yeah. Whoever he drafts, even if it’s Bailey, you have to roll with it. He’s atleast earned that.

They have to trade it: Ace is like **** to flies for bad teams.

I see Edgecombe and Bailey (both favorites at the 3rd spot) as classic “sucker’s picks”, the kind teams drafting 5th and below will be glad to see taken early, knowing they did their homework on their red flags.

I'm conflicted. If someone wants to pay great value maybe you do.

as long as we don't trade for another washed vet or some meh role player

i don't care...give me a young top 10 level prospect to overhype and I am happy

I think Kon Kneuppel might be my preferred pick but I’d want to test his ability to defend in private workouts. I think him and McCain would be an extremely dynamic pair of high IQ movement shooters that would have elite chemistry.

I like Edgecombe too and I think he’d pair really well with Maxey. The combo of shooting, athleticism, and point of attack defense between those two & Grimes is very intriguing. I worry about his health with the way he elevates in traffic without a plan sometimes tho.

This is a very interesting pick imo because the selection could hint at who Morey sees as the long-term lead guard - Maxey or McCain. I hate to pit those two against each other but it will be the inevitable convo for the next year.

I don’t know much about him. Is it a talented guy who puts up hollow stats but doesn’t contribute to winning type of thing?

Iverson Armband · Post #915 » by **Iverson Armband** » Tue May 13, 2025 12:08 am

These workouts are going to be extremely interesting.

5 and 21 from Utah. Reverse Ainge on Ainge.

I could very easily see San Antonio trading down and taking Kon - he’d be a really nice connector paired with Fox/Castle/Wemby. His defensive concerns don’t really matter next to Wemby and Castle anyway.

guy who if you look at highlights looks like the second coming of T-Mac

then you dig into the stats and it turns out he's not a great shooter, can't get to the rim or by anyone, doesn't finish at the rim, weak handle and is smaller than advertised too...and didn't win on top of all that.

Just a lot of red flags

but the highlights doe

again he's a guy I'd get fired over and have fell in love with the "idea" of in years past. Doesn't feel like a Morey guy tho so who knows

Massively talented in HS. Just settled for difficult shots, couldn’t blow by guys, weak at getting to the rim, didn’t draw fouls, didn’t generate assists, sub 70% FT. Of all the teams, were the best for him to go to but is he the best for us? Not in my opinion.

That's the only one I can't get behind

Who do you want us to take at #3?
