The NBA Draft Thread

[awwsome]

He reminds me alot of Marbury tbh. Clearly a more explosive athlete though.

Definitely see some Starbury in his game with the shiftiness off the dribble/in the lane.

Similar builds.

 

[ill steelo]

That dunk at 1 min :x :x :x :x

I really just want him to go somewhere where he can run high pnr all game & just attack ppl going downhill, like '09 wade.

 

[Moheezy]

It's hard to imagine Smith not having a successful NBA career. From the eye test alone, you can see that he is special.

 

[youngthundercat]

Dennis Smith Jr slowly becoming my favorite player in this draft.

Kyle Lowry lite

Bruh what

 

[Moheezy]

So... Do you guys think Dunn will really replace Rubio?

He's averaging 3.7 points, 2.5 assists, and 2.2 rebounds on nearly 17 minutes per game. His shooting splits are atrocious too .369/.271/.580 all this adding to the fact that he's turning 23. Isn't Anthony Davis 23?

How much more chance do we need to give him?

Also, Rubio is balling his brains off.

@Quell ...whats up with your mans Dunn? :x ... the way you used to hype him im suprised he aint make the all star team this year

 

[pmatic]

A rookie taking over for Rubio because he was going to be better than Rubio was always laughable to me.

 

[sohi 23]

Haven't watched too many twolves games but isn't Dunn 2 years older than Tyus Jones? I remember Tyus getting more pt than Dunn

 

[deandre hopkins]

Dunn turns 23 in march while Rubio just turned 26.

 

[keko jones]

Two questions ..

Is Covington good?

Is Frank K. a bust?

PS. I hope they give T. Jones a chance, he's a winner.

 

[dat dude chris]

Nah Covington isnt good, hes just serviceable. On a good team, he would barely be in the rotation but on my squad he just fills his role right enough lol

Covington is a good player to either come off the bench or be like the 5th option on a good team's starting lineup. Like say we have a lineup next year of Simmons-Monk-Covington-Dario-Embiid...he would be great in that role. Right now he's forced into being way higher usage than he needs to be.

 

[Moheezy]

I don't remember where I heard the stat, but Covington was the only wing with a + defensive rating.

He's a serviceable 3 and D player. I don't ever want to seem him in iso ball. He has some of the worst footwork in the league.

Also, TJ McConnell is a baller.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

The real question is Kriss Dunn better than Tyus Jones?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Since y'all getting way off topic, is Zion Williamson actually a good basketball player? His dunks are unreal

I have no idea. Hopefully he plays for Team USA so we can find out.

 

[ballinsam23]

I'm sure he'll get his opportunity, but as of right now Dunn was another guy NT severely overrated.

 

[addict4sneakers]

awwsome is my dude but Denzel valentine is looking really funny in the light

Draft overall is just lookin like basura, 2000 esque.

Pretty much. If he's not shooting a 3, hes a guaranteed offensive foul. I only want to see him playing defense and hitting open 3'(which he was having a super hard time with earlier)

He's solid off the bench

Josh Jackson already 20 years old somehow.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Josh Jackson already 20 years old somehow.

Interesting

Not a deal breaker but worth noting

 

[addict4sneakers]

Simmons and Kat were old too.

I think.

 

[awwsome]

KAT turned 21 earlier in this season.

Ben Simmons turned 20 after the draft.

It's not that bad but just surprising to see a freshman that old.

His HS career was a little sketchy if I remember so that probably resulted in an extra year.

He looks it
