Will keep an eye on those names. I vaguely remember Ekiyor because he was supposed to play D1 somewhere and he was falsely accused of assault right?

I looked into this guy's story and it looks like he was a Giants of Africa camper. I looked at his high school highlight and noticed he was wearing a Basketball Without Borders jersey. Bet you Masai has a hand in this kid going to Ryerson somehow :wow:
I think someone died in a car accident he was at fault for or something along those lines. Set him back a couple years but he's probably the best player at Carleton now. Munis Tutu transfered and plays with him there too im pretty sure.


Lol i can never hate on Masai for his love of basketball without borders players. If i ever got a gm job I'd buy the 60th pick and draft a Canadian ever year

Why do you hate Bamba so much? :dwillhuh:
You think he's bad here? Go look in the Cowboys draft threads. :mjlol:

That would be foolish. They’re already betting on Giles. Porter is the pick that can cost Divac his job if he ain’t careful.
THANK YOU! If the Kings draft MPJ, I might root for a new squad.

JJJ/DSJ is a better pairing than Mo Bust/DSJ. :yeshrug:

Mo Bust is one of those project players that his second team will benefit more from what his drafted team spent time to develop his game.

The team that draft Mo Bust is going to basically be a farm system for another team in the future.
Bamba is WAY BETTER than JJJ. Wendell Carter Jr is better too. How often did you even see Bamba play?

I'm glad people are starting to wake up. I think JJJ is a great prospect but he's a guy that's gonna be a product of the quality of his organization - which at the same time could be said for a lot of guys.... mainly Bamba. You ain't gonna get a better empty big man canvas than that to work with.

If you're going all in on potential then its an easy decision between JJJ and Bamba. Whether one reaches it over the other is up to personalities and training.

How is he way better when he is a liability on offense? :what:

Don't give this potential bullshyt. I saw games where he looked lost on offense.

He would take his time getting up and down the court. While JJJ would chase a nikka down and block their shyt on the backboard on some LeBron shyt.

JJJ is just as good on defense.

He can shoot better than Mo Bust.

He pass better than Mo Bust.

He can dribble and create his on shot. Something Mo Bust can't do.

I come to realize that most y'all nikkas have zero clue on what y'all talking.

Because if you know anything about Rick Carlisle. Rick Carlisle hate dealing with underdeveloped rookies.

Does Landry Shamet have the athleticism to become a starter in the league? He has the poise for sure.

Why would the Bulls want Conley? And I don’t get the sense that Memphis is actively looking to trade him.

Now if you said the Bulls eat the Parsons deal then maybe...
First off the Bulls are dumb as shyt

Second, we know Parsons is damaged goods. We also know the Bulls aren't sold on Dunn - and if Mike Conley is damaged goods, on the decline after the injuries, or simply tired of the rebuild, management, etc then its not a stretch to say he's available for a dumb organization like Chicago

But they're likely too cheap to pay Conley anyways. Just saying its not a stretch at all :yeshrug:
