I'm reading into it that someone doesn't know how to make fonts look good and easily readable on twitter.

It’s definitely early 2000’s meme photocopied and scanned level of clarity. I prefer comic sans in the notes app myself.

Would OKC take 7, 14, and a non - core piece for SGA?

This could help OKC get up to number 1 possibly.

Whats the best pick Obi Toppin can get by himself could get in the 2021 draft (with appropriate salary filler coming back ofc)?

Not a trade up, just another pick.

Dang, that’s a tough question. He went 8th last year, but he’s also 23 already, and would be one of the oldest prospects in this draft, too, and this past year in the NBA only kind of pointed out he’s kind of in between positions at the NBA level. I don’t think he nets a lotto pick. The hard part is, he could net anywhere between 15 and 30 straight up and I wouldn’t be terribly shocked where he fell in that range. I don’t think that NY should consider moving him, though, as he just won’t likely return value this year. But, maybe a year in the future, and let his production or position clear up, and he might be a more solid value piece to return a useful draft pick. :dontknow:

More likely with Shamet for a different contributor imo. Brooklyn needs players that help them win, not lux tax space

We keep going in here, or have a new running thread starting clean for the draft?

We should have a new thought thread ? Simpler to read all for someone who come in at whatever timing they might be available before draft.

Maybe have a separate one for draft night stuff? Keep this for non-draft stuff? Or lock this one for 24 hours?

Hopefully people verify the Twitter accounts that they are following before the action starts. Fake trades from fake Twitter accounts clutters the Forum.

would be the worst pick in the draft at 8. You like Williams you move back and get something vs reaching big time for him
A scoring guard.. never heard of one. :roll:

He was so disappointing, I understand the appeal if he gets it together but that's too big of a gamble that high
