High upside pick. He was projected to be the #1 pick a year ago.

I hope Bender or Jaylen Brown fall to 9.

no he wasnt. simmons was always number one followed by jaylen

 

[ISO]

Y'all see that camera man fall over in front of Simmons

Ben gave him the and kept it pushing

[Brozay]

If I'm a GM I'm taking his name plate off my draft board and throwing it out the window

He's GOT to be getting paid for that

 

[jwinfield]

He's GOT to be getting paid for that

Before I got to the caption I had the because I thought it was gonna say that was his girl

This is much worse

 

[god shamgod]

I figured the lakers aren't That dumb

 

[Deflatedhoopdreams]

 

[Miggs]

I think Giannis is more fluid in his movements, Ben looks so stiff, but there are so few point forwards in the league (Giannis, LeBron, Dray) that it works to compare them.


@Miggs Skal, yay or nay?

Skal over Sabonis YAY

 

[Poitier]

Cheikh Diallo got next

nah

 

[Miggs]

Pretty sure @Miggs hates the idea of skal (understandably ).

Id rather go Skal over Sabonis at 9...I want no parts of T-Rex arms in the lottery...

Skal in a few years could turn out to be a wrecking ball with size and range at least...Sabonis is just going to be a middling NBA player at best who struggles to score against bigger stronger players and the idea of him next to JV disgusts me...

That shyt never made sense.

GarPax floating bullshyt rumors out there trying to save face with the fans after trading Rose.
