Kings traded their protected 2027 SA first round pick (protected 1-16).

immediately rolls into two seconds in 2027 if it doesn't not convey.

If the Bucks and Pels end up 15-20, it’s inconsequential tbh. But if Giannis is moved or Zion misses 3/4 of the season…. :(


You think a team of Zion, Fears, Queen, Missi, Poole, Trey Murphy and Herb Jones will be competitive in the tough West?

Maybe they're a surprise, but I doubt it when you consider Zion's health and counting on two rookies. I'm also not big on Poole.


New Orleans is going to finish 13-15 in the West. Book it.

Saraf is terrific.

But Nets and 3 PGs.

Shades of Minny from way back when.

Wouldn't be shocked if Saraf is going to be stashed for a season.

Sucks when green room invitees don't get selected.

Hard to watch.

Expectations affect perception of whether or not it's a successful night.

I think we’ve competed in the west with less talent, and we’ve made and fought for playin spots with stars missing most of the year.

I don’t think it’s possible for us to have as many guys missing as last year. Even for the Pels.

Always feel badly for the last guy in the green room. It's even worse when they don't get taken in the first round.

Happy for Wolf. Hometown crown cheer has to feel like the extra support this moment needs.

Good place for Wolf and what he likes to do. Brooklyn actually doesn't have any bigs like him, so he can find a place here.

Weird that the Nets are drafting so many guards....maybe we're getting Ben Saraf and Danny Wolf for Beringer?
