And with the #1 pick the San Antonio Spurs select Scoot Henderson! CHAOS!!!!!

Sounds like it.

I mean, Miller is nice but Scoot just has that "it" factor to me. Then again maybe he's the new Dennis Smith Jr.

That's the concern

I knew Redick would be a good player.

Was not right about Franz Wagner though.

CRAP. I wanted Wembanyana.

Of course SanAntone took the entire five minutes for drama.

Hey wait, Wemby has a younger brother?!?!?

I'm still shaking mine with fury over how obvious it was that Isaac wanted to be drafted by the Knicks after all the love he gave them. :lol:

I like how Wemby and Silver look like MIB aliens lmao

I'm not high on Scoot.

Also, the three top picks never turn out to be the best 3 players when all is said and done.

His height may not be exaggerated.
Him next to the tall commish Silver. Wow.

Didn't realize they were airing it on ABC... but I'd rather listen to JJ than SAS

Let's do a running game as prospects come off the board:

Wemby best case: Modern day Kareem
Wemby worst case: Modern day Ralph Sampson

ESPN easily better broadcast

Meh people say this every year. We have to trade up to get _______, then that player gets picked 5-10 picks after us

Remember when we thought we would have to take bouknight at 5 if we wanted him cause he won't be there at 8

Bilal got hyped up lately but doubt he's picked before 11

Dick looked like a more flashy Hammer Time with that jacket

Okay, I was remembering huge shoulders more than the huge hips.

Victor Wembanyama just got,drafted and he’s already a bust

Last Guardian · Post #518 » by **Last Guardian** » Fri Jun 23, 2023 12:16 am

I wonder why spurs haven’t announced a trade victor for Luka. Oh wait, they have brains enough not to do that

Wemby seems like a nice kid, crying tears of joy even though the announcement was really just a formality. Really hope his body holds up (or at least free of catastrophic injury).
