This doesn't make any sense. A few pages ago someone posted a tweet saying we already made offers to SAS of the 3rd and multiple first but SAS declined. Now it's saying all we did was call and didn't make an offer. Which is it???

That sets up a potential 3 team scenario where both the Hornets and Jazz pay us to move down two spots, allowing them to secure VJ and Kneuppel, while we land Tre and additional assets from both teams.
But then the Wizards come into play. They’re aggressive in pursuing Tre, and it turns out Kasparas is actually Morey’s real target all along, his scoring efficiency, free throw rate, PnR maestro and stepback 3PT% fit Morey’s lead guard archetype perfectly. So now the Wizards are also willing to pay us just to move up a single spot.
Suddenly, we’re in a spot where multiple teams are bidding to move ahead, and we can trade down, get our guy, and collect assets from all these teams.
So draft night we have all that prepared soon as we are on the clock. The Spurs shock the world and pass on Dylan Harper. We place our phones on DND and select Dylan Harper.
The Mavs shock the world once again by drafting Ace Bailey, explaining why he refused workouts with any other team. The next day, Nico Harrison is nowhere to be found, reportedly managing the team remotely via Zoom for the next 10 years from an undisclosed location.
Ehh I don’t like the Nico hate he receives because he’s just the face of that deal. He was not the man behind it. The league wanted a star in LA so their sell of the team would be higher. Now they can use that to get two new owners for their expansion teams because the value of teams are amazing. Meanwhile they threw Dallas Cooper Flagg for their trouble. Owner gets to pretend like it was all Nico and Nico has to look foolish trying to answer question justifying the move.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if we were interested in Tre Johnson. Morey dreams heavily in a bed of floating roses with fantasies of Step-Back threes, foul grifting, and hypnotic methodical offensive attacks...In this dream...He sees Tre Johnson.

Best part of the country and/or close to his home. Also East is much weaker than the West.

A Vin Fosh ‘insider info’ post is proof the silly season is upon us.
I’m not incredibly high on Harper though on the right team he has a high floor, just that shooting or the lack of it.
Bailey I was out on a long time ago. He will be chosen in an expansion draft some day and put up huge numbers on inefficient volume there.
VJ is a stat stuffer and fits the culture, a Robin ready to play with a Batman. Feels a bit like an Iguodala player which is a strong compliment.
Kon sharing the same initials as Kyle Korver fits and Korver would easily be a lottery pick in the current NBA, plus Kon has more creation skills than Korver.
Fears I don’t see a fit with the Sixers at all.
Tre is the guy who could be a superstar if his game develops to match his physical skills, strongest bet is as a future Sixth Man of the Year.

I think Harper and Ace will be the bust of the draft. Kon , Kasparas and maybe CMB will be talked about 2 years later.

Iguodala was not a Robin. But that is actually a decent comp for VJ, hadn’t thought about that although he’s not the ball handler Iggy was.
always a jump shot away.

Re: 2024-2025 College Basketball / NBA Draft - Volume III
I feel like a trade down one or two spots gets us a very useful player and additional asset, I’m all in on that approach if Charlotte or Utah are willing to move up, maybe willing to go to six but not as interested in dropping below there without an established player coming to us in the package (Herb Jones?) too.

Unbelievable insight from Siegel's Scoop at ClutchPoints! Airous still very much in the mix at #3 overall!!!

He has not attended an individual workout with any team throughout the pre-draft cycle, and he turned down multiple offers to do so. Bailey opted not to accept visit offers from the Charlotte Hornets and Washington Wizards, sources said. It has also been speculated that the Brooklyn Nets attempted to have Bailey come in for a workout, but the prospect's representation continues to view him as a top player in this draft class next to Cooper Flagg and Dylan Harper.
Bailey has been on Philadelphia's radar since this past college basketball season started. The Sixers attended many of his and Harper's games in Piscataway, New Jersey, roughly an hour-long trip from the team's practice facility in Camden.
Although it seems like the 18-year-old and his agent slighted the 76ers at the last minute, Bailey is still very much in play to be the third pick in this year's draft, sources said. Philadelphia has yet to make a decision, and executive Daryl Morey has seen it all when it comes to the NBA Draft.
He is not afraid to play these sorts of games with agents and their players, which is why if he ultimately decides Bailey is the team's missing piece, he will have no problem selecting him, regardless of whether Bailey's camp wants him next to Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey.
Despite all the noise surrounding Bailey, some air needs to be cleared about the kid. This is not his doing whatsoever. Coaches and players who have been on the same team as Bailey leading up to the start of his NBA journey have nothing but great things to say about him, and there is no denying his athletic skills on the court.

Okay, but what about next year.
Next draft is great! Until on or about June 19, 2026, then it will suck again!
Right.... They all suck because folks can't pick a easy star...... Then multiple all stars come from most of them.
If there's a draft where you see clearly that multiple players are definite contributors or high level role players as Ole School put it. I think it's clear that this draft is in the top 5 or close since 2003 as Daryl said in that category..... Then Bet on some of them guys to have the work ethic to develop into stars and for some of these highly skilled guys that don't have the measurements maybe like KJ, Fears with his size, Queen or Kon to become stars. That's why these NBA teams which again have federal level background access to these kids to make better choices than the analytic experts on realgm.
We're talking about floors for Tre being someone like DLo or Cam.... Both guys with different mindsets or development by their team could've been much better.
VJ floor being Deanthony Melton who was so good for us and the Warriors before his body betrayed him and again more development could've elevated him (instead of being on a team with Ja and Bane where he was never going to get focus to be more than a 3 and D guy.
Dylan floor being Andre Miller who was just a jump shot away from being a great player
Etc. etc.
Notice I didn't mention Ace.........oops

Igoudala wasn't a Robin, he was a Batgirl at best. Actually not even that, he was the 5th? best player on those Warriors title teams.
VJ would be lucky to be that good considering how physically and skillwise superior Iggy was. It's absurd to think he's a Robin.
