2025 NBA Draft Thread

[Vincent Van Goat]

Listened to a pod that had some fair and real concerns with specifically amen Thompson

I didn’t realize they were going to be 20 years old in January. A lot of the other kids barely turned 18 this summer

Besides that, it appears that amen was mostly a one level scorer with no appetite for midrange or 3

Hopefully the OTE can help with this part of his development. I don’t know what to think of the program but if he doesn’t show any improvement in those areas that’s a red flag

KJ McDaniels already out the league? Have anything to do with his mama?

For all the wingspan heads

Is it too early addict4sneakers ?

Sounding like Boris diaw.

But for real when ant man said he was a football player, people came for him. Should be the same treatment for victor

I’m taking scoot over wembenyama

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Currently listening to addict4sneakers boy with an episode talking about victors injuries

Heard on a previous pod that he took time off for his kid, good times and congrats to him

Or maybe we learn from our mistakes?

Probably not. Jaylen brown was deemed too smart.

Probably not. Jaylen brown was deemed too smart.

Jaylen too smart, Ant didn't love the game enough, and Vic too artsy?

Does that mean he's a sure thing?

Real life IQ and basketball IQ dont even correlate .

So saying dumb stuff off the court is somewhat passsable

Just learned that victors new team ain’t playing in euroleague and will play only once a week

Seems like this move might have been intentional… to avoid wear and tear against bigger better competition.. hmm

Was Cade a sure fire No.1 pick going into his draft?

Was Cade a sure fire No.1 pick going into his draft?

Pretty heavy consensus. Some had an issue with his ability to create shots, me included but that was it from what I remember.

 

[pmatic]

Was Cade a sure fire No.1 pick going into his draft?

Consensus #1 pick since the summer before.

 

[datznasty]

Dereck Lively from DUke, 7'1 with a 7'8 wingspan. Might be a better prospect. I hate his mom for spelling his name this way

 

[pmatic]

Got the prime D-Rose pull up without the hitch.

[frshstunna]

Hope it works out for Bates…it’s a no middle ground type of move for him

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Some serious talent coming out of Atlanta lately between Ant, Scoot and now Collier.
