Event 2024 NBA DRAFT - JUNE 26 & June 27 2024 - WEDNESDAY 5:30 PM PST & THURSDAY - 1 PM PST - ABC & ESPN

I absolutely noticed that, too!

Hold on to your shorts?

 

What would you rather see

A. Bronny James throwing an alley oop to his dad

B. LBJ swatting his sons shot to China

 

Murray 0.3 blk
Jabari 0.3 blk
Rupert 0.1 blk

while they may be taller then 6'7", our best shot blocker is a 6'5" guard named Matisse Thybulle. Portland needs a legit defensive Center, and the ping pong gods made the choice for us.

 

Kris Murray was a waste of a pick. I’d rather give his roster spot to someone we draft tomorrow. Throw him in the Grant trade.

 

A. I'm not a hater and I remember when I was a kid and Ken Griffey Sr and Jr got to play together on the Ms for a couple seasons. It seemed really special and I think it would be cool to see that sort of thing again.

That being said I'm a fan of LeBron's, I think he's inarguably one of the two greatest players to ever play this game and I think MJ played such a different role that it's hard to say definitively that he was better even though I have MJ at 1 and LeBron at 2.

Anyway, I think it would be really special to see LeBron and Bronny get to do what Ken and Junior did. Junior was probably the greatest positional prospect in the history of baseball at the time and Bronny doesn't have that kind of hype but I still think it would be something I'd like to see.

 

That is not my twitter but obviously that's the biggest thing that stood out to me as well. Joe talked about being on the phones all day and planting a lot of seeds. I really do think he probably has two or three teams lined up who have interest in Jerami and Ant and free agency (like the first day or two) will dictate where those two end up.

 

Chauncey need to let Deni do the playmaking to free up Simons just like Draymond and Steph.

 

Simons is going the way of Brogdon....it's just a matter of when.

Someone texted in and asked if I was up in a stool yet. We weren't sure what that meant, so decided to let them 'speak it into existence.'

 

Request of Simons?
Or Joe came to the realization that he is a net negative player?

 

Who do we like at 34?

There's some really interesting guys still on the board. Furphy would be interesting. I like the idea of Tyler Smith. I don't think another center makes a lot of sense, but Filipowski is certainly interesting.

 

Kevin McCullar or Isaiah Crawford please.

 

I would take Kolek if he is there for more shooting and he is a solid defender and let's be honest Scoot has not been the most durable so far so this would be a nice insurance piece too.

I know some are going to say WTF another guard but he is prolly the best player available that might not have a high ceiling but at worst he will be a TJ McConnell type and that could be a nice trade piece in the future. The problem he will be drafted in the first 3 picks or someone will trade up for him ahead of the Blazers I would almost book it cause he is NBA for the most part ready.

 

OKC is out here playing Go Fish

 

I understand not liking a pick, but tearing down a guy on draft night when your job is to be a draft correspondent feels really bad. Isn't part of her job talking to players as they come up the ranks? She knows a lot of these players personally. Clearly she doesn't have a relationship with Edey but makes you wonder if this will affect how well you can do your job in the future.

 

I’m just glad it wasn’t us. But I think Holland at 5 was a worse pick.

 

I’ll go with C. Pippen Jr swatting Bronny James shot to Larsa’s face.

 

Was thinking the exact same thing.
