College b ball is soo boring. I'd rather watch paint dry.

I’d rather pay Child Support

Nothing like maximizing your readiness and defensive prowess for the pros than defending in the good ole 2-3 Zone

All of a sudden the Suns look really well set up for
the future especially if they hit in the lotto.

Gotta get a real coach though

 

[Clyde Frog]

Out of the three major sports, the only two that doesn't allow preps to pros are dominated by young black men. That's not a coincidence.

Is football the other? I'm confused, are you saying skipping college? Because you can absolutely not go straight to the NFL lol.

Elf gotta be thinking he may have secured himself a bag

If you're PHX GM, do you pull the trigger on him?

2-3 is ok but 1-3-1 zone is obviously the best to prepare you for the pros

 

[Moheezy]

Him, Payton and Booker been taking turns putting up crazy numbers but the Suns are so bad they don’t even show their highlights on ESPN unless Booker drops 40+ or some other star drops 40+ on them

I've noticed.

If they retain Payton and draft someone like Bamba, they will be a very solid defensive team.

 

[Clyde Frog]

Also for the record I think the NCAA will pay its players before it ever let's an alternative **** them up.

Jaren Jackson is the most obvious bust waiting to happen. I do not understand why this dude is still regarded as a top 5 pick.

If PHX ends up with Ayton, Bamba, Trae or Luka they will have definitely did good for themselves

I have NO idea tbh. Contract year shenanigans

 

[freeze]

This feels like it was two years ago

Dead *** folk

All about his potential, that is: athleticism, potential to shoot with range and his shot blocking ability

On paper, he shouldn't be a bust but his scoring and rebound numbers won't wow you

“Won’t wow you” is being nice

His numbers have been straight trash

You think those coaches are going to let a few hundred thousand slip out of their greasy hands to keep millions from going elsewhere? Yeah probably.

“Won’t wow you” is being nice

His shooting numbers and shot blocking numbers have been excellent, also displays solid FT shooting

I'm just telling you why he's shot up the draft boards lol

Again, the hype is based off his potential which I guess is almost as scary as the "he's the most NBA ready" label

 

[freddy fig]

Bballkid gon get a 10 day contract wit da pels if he keep hoopin

 

[negrotastic]

Refs just handed that one to the Thunder.

Russ gotta win the MVP again right?

9.7 = 10 to me.

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

Raptors loss to OKC
Lebron and the canton charge in 5

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I have a clear cut top 5 with porter falling out at least until he looks right in workouts

Ayton, Luka, bamba, trae, bagley

I wouldn't be mad at all if I got stuck with jaren Jackson outside the top 5, starting at 6

Jackson, sexton, miles x2 and sga are toss ups

What!?

No way. He didn’t even deserve it last year
