Already got Grayson Allen so the lacrosse-ass name quotient is currently filled. Pass.

Everybody thinks lacrosse folks are so regressive but I was in the scandalized Duke Lacrosse coach's former home and there were EXTERIOR sconces on the INTERIOR of the home. It was a goddam circus

I need to know what his leg tattoo says before considering further

Some other takeaways from KOC's new mock (not all of which is important to the Bucks):

- Detroit is reportedly interested in Collin Sexton
- Atlanta wants to trade up into the lottery
- Philly wants to attach the #23 pick to Danny Green to get rid of him

Feels like 10m in cash and cap space is too much for the #23 pick.

So based on the game I posted, Procida is a worthy pick at 24. Some really impressive stuff in there for a teenager against a quality opponent.

Some team gave him a 1st round promise.

But how does he look against a chair?

Destroys the folding chair, gets bullied by the chaise lounge...

Who would you rather have between Jake Laravia and Christian Braun?

I'd be down for them to somehow trade Hill or maybe Sandro for a 2nd round pick and somehow land Procida if possible.

Pretty good list. I might be tempted to move Hardy up to the fine list because he's so young and there still could be something there, but that Ignite stint did him no favors, that's for sure. He's either going to turn into a player or be the next Rashad Vaughn lol.

BigO · Post #636 » by **BigO** » Tue Jun 14, 2022 1:58 pm

I'd do whatever I could to move up and get Johnny Davis. He is a work in progress on offense, but I think he can become an elite defender and very switchable on defense.

1. Jabari Smith

Look, I'm setting myself up to be flamed as both a UW alum and as someone who's going to resort to cliches that invite mocking, but Johnny has it. For as many times as he said it, I regrettably have to agree with Steve Bardo that Johnny is a killer. The talk by the draftniks has been that he isn't a great athlete, but when he was on the floor he moved at a different speed than anyone else and ruled the glass as a guard. His shot and handle need to get better, but each seem doable. He has great touch around the basket and that just never happens with a lot of guys.

It's not far-fetched that Johnny could be a main option, but I don't see him busting at all. If he goes outside the top 10, he'll at minimum meet his draft status in terms of production. Alright, hit me with the propane, you animals.

Absolutely reckless thinking, have to assume mods are currently asleep to allow such blasphemy.
