TANK SQUAD!

Beyond the big names, I like Clarke, Springer and Christopher as guards who will rise up the draft boards.

Also FYI, after the Frank draft, someone posted a tank thread for the next draft (for Luka), but mods locked it because it was too 'early', and we needed to celebrate successful lotto pick, and next Giannis - Frank Ntilikina. End result, no Luka. Don't F this up again.

Maybe one day there will be something else to look forward to with this team other than a never ending draft thread but at least we have our picks :lol:

Since I don’t know who will be CAA clients I should only invest time in Kentucky players. So BJ Boston, Terrence Clark and Jacob Toppin.

Looking forward to some games, especially with this class.


Lets see what all the prospects including Cade look like first. Not ready to get on any bandwagon yet.

Random question. But why are second rounders so valueless in the nba? In the nhl where there are only 5 more players per roster, picks down to the third and fourth round are considered valuable. Maybe more rhetorical than anything, but I’ve wondered this for a while.
I dunno.
