The Official NBA Thread: PLAYOFFS

[king j]

And I should have been a tad more specific because Z-Bo was drafted in 2002

my bad

 

[toneboi76]

Edey is definitely better than a dude like Alex Len but that’s not saying much. He will go lottery tho because he ha s a strong base and soft hands

Idk what this means

No he's not

My guy Len has had a 10 year career. Don’t think it’s guaranteed Edey does that at all.

 

[king j]

All jokes aside I think Edey goes 2nd - undrafted


He’s a sideshow/ marketable big like Boban & Tacko,he’s unplayable in todays NBA,but a marketable fan favorite type.

Eddy would get destroyed in pick and roll by NBA athletes.

Name me some successful bigs that play more than 10 minutes a game he reminds you of the last 15 years


There's your answer

He reminds me of a mix of Zubac and Vucevic

To be fair, almost all bigs in the league get killed on that switch

I think the same can be said for a lot of slow footed bigs in the league. They still bring value to their teams. Steven Adams, Valancuinas, Brook Lopez, Nurkic. He would be a great asset to OKC for 18 minutes a game IMO.

Edey going in the 20s.

Zubac was a 2nd rounder so that matches where Edey will most likely go

Vucci mane probably is a late 1st rounder/2nd rounder in today's draft.

Edey has skills. Great college player. That prototype of player just isn't getting drafted high

Givony has him going 13th

Givony has him going 13th

Shout out to Givony standing on business even in a weak draft I still don't see lottery. We'll see

And Zach Collins, Kaminsky, Mo Bamba and Meyers Leonard. He’s worth taking off size alone in a weak draft

Tatum is leaps and bounds better than him defensively this year

Bron still being Bron is awesome though

No doubt. I think he has a role in the league and will likely go in the mid/late first round. it was just interesting to hear a handful of nba insiders and scouts on the radio saying he’d go undrafted and “he’ll be lucky to go late second round.”

His skills are more cut for the 90s, early 2000s but as we’ve seen, you can never have too bigs in your rotation. He’ll be food on the PnR, but he can actually defend the rim and rebound better than donovan clingan, who is a projected lottery pick.

This is my favorite time of year - I love all the minutiae of who wins and seeing the tables change on a daily basis.

What is really interesting about this West race is that they are basically playing each other too - each game is important and could make a big difference.

Who deserves All-NBA 1st Team?

Jalen Brunson.

 

[Coupé It]

Edey is projected to go 13th?

What

He’s not making it in the league. This draft is really that bad huh?
