2019 NBA Draft Thread

[Fun coupon VOL]

Sadly, no. He's shipping off to Detroit

Which absolutely sucks.

What's a two-way deal?

NM, I looked it up

You can be shipped between the G-League and the NBA. A player can spend 45 days on the team before he’s either signed for the rest of the year or he’s back in the G League for the rest of the year. It also means that it doesn’t count against your cap

$200k if you play all 45 NBA eligible games - another $70k for the G league games.

I’d say he made the right choice.

Thoughts on the draft:

Hawks and Pels cleaned up
Spurs, Blazers, Bulls, Grizz, and Lakers made the most of their draft selections
I like the variety and chances the Celtics are taking
Cavs took my least favorite projected early round pick and my favorite projected late round pick
Suns didn't need the 11 pick to get CJ, but if TJ works out, he's the perfect type guard next to Booker
Wizards are going to stay their ass the Wizards
I hated the Warriors picks (no idea on the Euro)

The Jazz had three late 2nd round picks, all upperclassmen from small schools who had big stats. Hopefully one or two of them can immediately give us decent bench minutes.

Simmons was razzing House (Wizards fan) that their 2nd pick (Schofield) was better than their 1st

Seems like a Morey guy

 

[YankeeVol]

It is curious that he only played 18 mpg, but he was a monster per minute and he was just a freshman in the ACC. Shooting is a concern, but he showed enough potential to be picked in the lottery

I know. It's not that he sucked, but if you're that "talented" you would probably be as good or better than those seniors. IMO, JMO, TIFWIW

 

[YankeeVol]

I gotta get some Celtics gear.

Gross

 

[MAD]

Also heard Hyams on the radio say he has been told Detroit promised Jordan Bone at 45

You had some good inside info, nice job.

[n_huffhines]

Wizards never even talked to Hachimura

Yeah Jimmy nailed it.

 

[n_huffhines]

Lakers never met Horton-Tucker and they still drafted the Clutch client. I really like the pick though. He has a lot of weird potential

Huff, we got to talk about this draft.

The best two players by win shares is Daniel Gafford & Nic ****ing Claxton.

Holy hell what a miss

Before I even saw your comment, I reread the top 10 picks from OP, and was laughing. I think I count 5 all-star appearances out of that top 10, when we probably thought we'd be getting 20+

 

[n_huffhines]

There are actually quite a few solid players in this draft, but not a single guy who is even the 3rd best player on a title team. Is there a 4th best player on a title team there?
