looked like a college line, but that would still put him a foot or two behind the NBA line

High school line.

A lot of workouts I like it! If someone they work out and like goes undrafted they can pick him up.
I got the burner-Kevin Durant

Blossomgame, Dotson, Iwuandu are all real interesting prospects. Very pleased to see us going for a major scouting scope.

We're definitely going to have another levert type out of nowhere reach with one of our picks.

Gimme Blossomgame. I would be shocked if he goes at the end of the 2nd round like DX had him a few weeks ago.

It's rare that rookies drafted outside of the lottery show the type of potential Levert has shown. I'm not aware of another talented player who was injured and has been predicted to drop so low. While I'd hope for another Levert, I think it's wishful thinking to expect it to happen.

I didn't say a prospect with levert like potential. I said a levert like reach. A player who isn't projected to go anywhere near where he gets drafted, but marks and co make the reach because all they care about is securing the draft rights.

But this isn't like last year. It seems like everyone has increased their drafting research especially considering that there's no chance of competing with GSW in the coming years lol.

We need to hit paydirt with one of these picks, landing another late 1st rd potential future starter is the difference between this ship trudging along at a snail's pace or cranking up the speed to 10.

Lots of pressure here IMO on the Nets to get this right.

Elie Okobo is a Marks-Atkinson like prospect. He's flying under the radar.

I like him senior 6'3 point guard from Brooklyn. Him and Whitehead Brooklyn's back court for the future.

I've been on the devin robinson hype train for a while now. would love him in the second round and even be happy with him at 22 or 27. to me he is a lock longterm 6th/7th man and glue guy

It always happens occasionally. Thon Maker, Terry Rozier, even Jaylen Brown. All I'm saying is that I think the nets will do that again. And it doesn't matter if the draft is like last year or not, and it doesn't matter what other teams are doing. The literal only thing I'm saying Is I think the nets are going to reach on a player. That has nothing to do with other teams lol

Ok, I didn't get that your main point is that the Nets were going to reach on a player no matter who it is. My bad.

Yeah, he was my sleeper PG from several months ago. It seems like no one has talked about him due to his injury but he has all of the measurements and talent to be a good player in the league.

Jonathan Jeanne is out of the equation, sad story:

"French center Jonathan Jeanne, who was expected to be a first-round selection in the 2017 NBA draft, has been diagnosed with Marfan syndrome, a potentially career-ending disorder, agent Bouna Ndiaye told The Vertical."
