2025 NBA Draft Thread

[pmatic]

To think, if Wembanyama was born a week earlier, he'd be eligible for next year's draft.

Looks like he’ll be able to score on Terance Mann

Kenny Lofton is nice, feels the game.

no role for him in the modern NBA tho.

Chet is a pretty good passer. Lots of tools. Just gotta put on whatever weight he can.

I kinda wish VW was a little shorter him being that tall worries me but his shooting stroke is amazing b

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Victor getting superstar calls already.

yah given the length of his arms he'd prob be better off being like 6'11 lol

Fatter Grant Williams

i mean he's a couple burgers away from being out the league himself.

Hope #3 on France gets a legit look to get drafted. He can play.

They're about to bring up AAU if U19 loses the day after the senior team lost to Nigeria.

Lofton looks like Bartolo Colon playing basketball. I love it.

 

[ballinsam23]

The half court set plays that international coaching staffs draw up compared to the constant isos by this USA team is night and day.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

I think France has a little too much "athleticism" to pull off the

"dumb entitled AAu kids get beat by smart scrappy europeans." narrative

 

[ballinsam23]

Idk if its the game plan, but Chet is not assertive at all.

There basically is no athletic disparity. IMO, the dumb "AAU card" would be pulled to infer that they can't play "team basketball" and just iso.

 

[pmatic]

You cannot let Lofton Jr beat you baseline.

Was just gonna say this. He read my post

Good to see him finally being aggressive.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

bring victor back, you saving him for the 5th quarter?

 

[ballinsam23]

Once again these kids dont know how to do a basic pump fake.

I love Ivey man. Got that Russell Westbrook athleticism gene.

thats funny because french youth and pro basketball has long been considered more athletic than other european leagues
and thus more similar to america.

 

[B Sox]

Victor on the bench makes absolutely zero sense

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

He really is French Giannis

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Kid is a competitor.
love to see it.
