2023 nba draft thread: starring victor, scoot... and more!

probably medicals yeah

allegedly hes not great in interviews (shy boi), and also he never passed in college (averaged 0.7 apg last year lol)

Cason Wallace can take criticism

yeah whitmore apparently has a weird game too

By shedding Davis Bertans, the Mavericks now project to be able to use the non-taxpayer mid-level exception and bi-annual exception.

okc probably gotta hit the salary floore

i like lively he’s obv going to be a complete menace on the defensive end. but my god the mavs are absolutely obsessed with centers what is their deal

hollinger was a big fan of lively's defense both as a rim protector and switch guy

cubes is an alpha and respects the height-based status hierarchy

sometimes i think about how the mavs made the west finals by essentially playing small forwards at center & then think about everything they’ve done after and wonder if i was part of some sort of mass public hallucination

i mean when you can get a center that can't score or rebound you gotta do it

do the celtics have a late 1st now i forget

they have #25

howard can shoot but that’s it, really an atrocious rebounder for his side, incredibly slow and non-focused on defense

duke is one of the only teams i saw like 5+ times this year, i came away really impressed by lively. he seems like a much better athlete than a lot of the bigs that have come out of there lately

Jett thanks all the people who doubted him!

did cuban write presti a $2 million personal check under the table

Mavs will now have the full midlevel exception, as well as a $17M trade exception. Full MLE should be particularly useful in adding a rotation player.

xp ty i will watch through that pick then

sigh, the best shooter in the draft falls right into masai’s lap

they’re saying this guy has a great basketball IQ

we know what that means!

pronounced ick

Don't forget the "want-it factor"

lonzo and lamelo get traded to toronto asap

lol

we are entering the bufkin zone

spurs need to get that kobe

Jesus Christ Stephen A is annoying tonight

can you watch on espn?

love to see a casual ray allen comp thrown out there

aside, i went on a work trip this week and was chatting with an older coworker of mine who likes to chat nba, we were talking trades and he said his first move is to go home, put on first take, and see what stephen a thinks of anything that happens. obv i let that pass without comment.

some ppl act like ray allen was just the miami version, some c&s role player, that man's bag was deep in his prime

xp

xp i think ppl love to hear confident men talk

he looks like he is hosting the 76th annual hunger games pic.twitter.com/gBRAR8Dzgs

saw a pic of him checking out a wemby mural from his car

This interview with Wemby has made me a fan - seems really smart and self-aware.

getting drafted by the lakers is like winning the lottery of the lottery
