Holy crap is Jalen Johnson huge. I swear he is even bigger since Duke. He looks like a monster on this dunk.

Read on Twitter


Atlanta killed it in this draft.


They did kill it. these guys stay in denial.

Getting Johnson in the 20s and Cooper in the 2nd round is a big win. Value wise, grandslam.

guys like wu tang and Ali are trolls idk why the mods don't see it. I'd accept if Cooper played horrible but these guys after 2 mins into the game

saying "What does NotmyKawhi think of Cooper now" just trolling. then he has a great game, shoots a great % and they stay in their narrative he can't shoot he sucks. They're trolls. They're bias. You bring up subjective arguements to avoid the facts.

Great athleticism. Looks smooth out there.

Johnson better than that Wagner scrub that went 8th. Always was, but the narrative that he's uncoachable dropped his value.

I'm only crapping on Cooper cuz he can't play. Cant defend or shoot. He's not doing anything on a real nba floor. Suggs I did go read.

You've been clueless posting since before the draft. Lol .. dont get upset since you're lost.


Cooper can't play? That's crazy talk. You are right that he is going to have a tough time getting on the floor in the NBA considering all their guards (Trae, Delon Wright, Lou Will and Skylar Mays).


He's not getting on the floor because he can't play D, turnover prone, and cant shoot. That's what I mean when I say he can't play.


Mr. Can't Shoot is now 18 and 9 and 4-7 from three. I don't think this is a hill you should die on, but if you don't like Coop that's your thing. He has 9 assists to 5 turnovers which is still good for Vegas SL. I will say in his limited college games he scored and assisted on over 50% of his teams baskets. His coach sure believed in him.

On defense it will be interesting. He does compete when he wants to and is a strong kid. /Edit He just hit a three to win the game. Ya Cooper is going to be okay.

I’m pretty sure you’re the only person here who considers me a troll but go off

I’ve never said anything that makes me a troll

Lol. It's summer league. He has clear weaknesses and even lover boy notmykawhi admits this guy is a back up point guard at best. What are we even talking about here ... His weaknesses are gonna keep him off the floor in REAL NBA GAMES.

His shot looks better to be fair but I still don’t see star in him. He’s gonna be limited by his size and defense. Backup pg is his most realistic projection and that’s not bad

They're just so confident in what they believe they're not open to any other possibilities even tho history keeps proving them wrong

That's why they started hating on me in the first place, bc I said, Suggs might not be a lock for #4. Then we passed on him, history doesn't lie.


Same thing w trae, I thought the hawks woud be better than us last year, nah, you're clueless. you know nothing. Trae can't play D. They make the conference finals and now it's not that they can't play D, it's they have elite skills lol

His numbers in college suggest he can't shoot. And in the 12 games he played in college, his team was 5-7. His team was 8-6 in the games Cooper was out.

There is a reason Cooper slid to one of the last few picks in the 2nd round.
