2024 Draft Prospects

UNCNYC · Post #361 » by **UNCNYC** » Mon Mar 4, 2024 6:21 pm

You are BEYOND LAME sir. and I try MY BEST to avoid them

2nd I go out of my way to pick undrafted players.

I never hear you say nice things to people, I am the FIRST one to bring up what GOOD decisions you/someone makes.

I even gave YOU credit for your Jaquez pick *a player I referenced YEARS PRIOR*

The reason Miller is not on my list is because like I said HE BECAME POPULAR so I didn't want him anymore.

Thats why I stay away from lames, we have nothing in common. From this day forth YOU can go your own way on this board and I will gladly go mine. I wont comment on ANYTHING YOU POST THAT IS A PROMISE. AND PLEASE DON'T COMMENT on mine.

Have a Blessed Day

Seems like a bit of an overreaction. I am poking fun at you for trying to claim all these "wins" because when you throw 50 things at the wall, 1 is bound to hit. Credit to loving Craig Porter Jr, he looks like a solid backup pg in the NBA for the next few years.

If you can't see the hilariousness that you said Djursic was your #1 player and then he was so bad he withdrew and not even on most draft boards this year then idk what to tell you. You can't say such outlandish things and get mad when people call you out for it... aka Jalen McDaniels>Zion... but then beat your chest for 2 guys out 22 guys you list being average NBA players.

And I am not even disvaluing what you do, I think you do present some interesting guys. I just think overall it would be more useful to the majority of the board if you had more realistic expectations for the undrafted guys you like... like saying a guy currently going undrafted on most boards would be your #1 target at pick #40 is cool, trying to sell him as a guy we should pick #4 is where I think you lose me and most the crowd.

Angelo Allegri is another guy you were on, I think you had him as a top 5 guy at some point last draft. He went undrafted, was on our summer league team and I think he scored like 2 points the entire summer. Am I bad person for pointing out you clearly oversold him?

Hopefully San Antonio can catch us they only 2 games behind us and we can get that top 3 pick or at least the odds would be in our favor to get it.

Risacher/Buzelis/Cody and Castle are my toss up for that 3rd spot.

He literally told you not to comment on his post again.

If the dude said he is done then just leave it alone. Don't become a bully and still comment and try to debate him after the fact.

I like both of you guys just don't like the back n forth it makes the sub toxic. We all are Hornets fans at the end of the day. We can disagree in a respectful manner.

I don't think it is at that level and it is also not your job to try to moderate.
No need for you to jump in and make the conversation 0% about basketball.

No problem back to basketball.

I like him. He's on my top 5 board. Seems like he is already pro ready. He's a bigger guy who can also handle the ball and do the role player type things. Seems like the perfect player to put next to Melo and Miller.

If he can improve his jumpshot consistency I think he could be a Jimmy Butler lite kind of player at the next level.

JMAC3 · Post #373 » by **JMAC3** » Mon Mar 4, 2024 10:26 pm

I think it will come down to measurements for Castle. If he is 6-6 with a 6-10+ wingspan then I think teams will value him as a potential defensive stopper with playmaking upside similar to Okoro (went 5th).

If he comes in on the smaller side of like 6-4 with a 6-7 wingspan I could see him falling outside the top 10 just because it really limits the number of guys he will be able to disrupt and then you start looking at his shooting and get more Davion Mitchell vibes.

I like him a lot, I don't have an official big board but he is in my tier 2, top 10 and I want to put him closer to 5, just not sure who I am moving below him for now.

I agree with this. If he is a legit 6'6 I think that would help his case of going top 5. It seems like he plays a lesser role on a great team. I love that he has shown he can play the role player role. He was a big prospect coming out of high school. Love that he has a team first mentality.

I have him in that 4/5 range right now.

Hey Jmac I just want to say that I take back calling you lame.

I hope that you were not offended by that remark.

I think you are a cool guy.

I do however think it's best we go our own way as we do not have similar methods at approaching people.

Noones better than the other but I do not like engaging in fights/arguments or even intense disagreements.

I find them unproductive, ratchet and uncouth.

Not saying you are any of those, just I am just saying I do not believe I am.

You are FAR more knoweledgeable than I am in basketball and I am fine with that.

I just wanna be me...

dude just said "rachet and uncouth"

Thanks to the board for allowing that MOMENT to pass... Thanks for the new guy-ish guy JustBuzzin to attempt to keep the peace.
You are truly valued here my friend.

We have all matured so much over the years. Many years ago we would take sides... now we just sit back and EXPECT the maturity that is this board to allow the parties to FIGURE IT OUT and by the Grace of God we always seem to do that...

Go Hornets.

Looking at prospects for the second round now, older prospect but a lot of people calling 6'9" wing Ryan Dunn the best defender in this draft. Trouble's the other end of the court...

Castle has overtaken Cody Williams for me from where I think we realistically pick. So for me from a 3,4, or maybe 5 spot my top 3 are

Buzelis
Castle
Williams

Yeah those guys are in my top 5. Surprised you didn't have Risacher in your top 3 though. He seems be the best shooter of the bunch.
