The Official 2020 NBA Draft Talk Thread (11/18)

@Brozay u good with melo at 4?

yeah I am - especially at 4 and especially in this draft

he fills a huge hole on the roster (playmaking) and Billy has shown he can utilize 3 guard lineups (Melo, Coby, Lavine)

his size & playmaking is super intriguing

I was listening to Chad Ford do his big board and he really did almost sway me into taking Ball at 3 to Charlotte. He was like, if they ever feel like getting out of this rut they're in, they need to just aim high and go for the potential star and even if he sucks early on, "tank" and then get a bigger star alongside him next year.

I just think Jordan is super petty and I think if it was up to him, he'd have Mitch pick Toppin because he saw him a lot on TV.

Jon Wasserman from B/R saying Isaiah Joe has a promise from Philly



Fran shytting on Poku before the TV broadcast

got 0 minutes for his Euroleague team and he played at 2nd tier level of Greek Basketball (similar to someone playing G league or minor league basketball).

NBA draft profile: Skilled 7-footer Pokuševski will require patience
but he's 7 feet .

to be fair, Giannis didn't even come out of tier 2.

jesus christ, you weren't lying

"To be honest," he says, "I can't watch basketball."

He retells the story about the first time he dunked and how it signaled to him that he was talented and could accomplish something he might not have been able to in football, which was his first love. So that's the direction he went, simple as that, hanging up his cleats. "That's all I needed to see," he says.

So when after that did he get into basketball?

"I'm still not really into it," he says. "I love basketball, yeah. It's what I do."

He's not entirely convincing. He says if he were drafted by the NFL tomorrow, he'd let basketball go. "Because you can do anything on the field," he explains. "You can spike the ball. You can dance. You can do all type of disrespectful stuff." In the NBA, he says, "you can't do any of that. You'll get fined."

He goes on to say that he's an aspiring rapper. He's already recorded a few tracks with his older brother Bubba. So, like Damian Lillard? "But I really can rap," he says. "Dame, talking about -- I don't know what he's talking about. I'm rapping like Lil Baby." He says he won't release any songs until he's established in the NBA.

Why did his team think this would help him

 

[NatiboyB]

I was thinking Edwards was a dog who wanted to compete and be the best player on the court for him to say that stuff it low key would scare me off of investing a top 5 pick.

l wanted him on the Cavs to begin with because I thought he was like Sexton with that dog.

 

[Left.A1]

Gersan Rosas in The Jump right now talking like he'd draft Wiseman #1 tomorrow.

nikka been in the media tryna sell that pick any way possible for a month and a half now

Man tanking his draft stock the literal night before the draft so he can fall all the way to #13 last minute and play with Zo, Zion, and Ingram on the Pels, smart kid
