we gotta see what their roster ends up being but atm i dont see a path with sga and horford and whatever else

theyre going to flip adams soon right?

good signing, sixers.

The Sixers are sending a lightly-protected 2025 first-round pick and the 34th overall pick in tonight's draft, sources tell ESPN. The Thunder are also sending Terrance Ferguson to the Sixers with Green. https://t.co/sDCfPo4T4L

lets see if they can do better than the celtics who turned a similarly big chest of picks into a good but not dominant team

this all ends with the thunder getting james harden back

and russ #WhyNot

Barring a blockbuster, I hear the Timberwolves are likely to keep the No. 1 pick.

I saw someone have Killian Hayes ranked number 1, do you guys know anything about him?

KOC loves him
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z31Mp5nq61c

i desperately want harden/russ/durant starting for OKC by 2025

big concern about hayes is lack of nba athleticism. i think koc is nuts for this ranking but hayes might be ok.

i think koc sees shades of harden, but idk. he'll be picked probably somewhere between 6-13.

idk why KOC should be trusted on scouting draft picks aside from bill simmons decreeing it

givony & schmitz have at least been enmeshed in the scouting community for years, traveling around the world etc. they're much lower on guys like hayes & avdija

yeah its like he decided that was his guy and just went for it.

that's totally it, going with a gut feeling in a draft without many exciting prospects.

f this

Klay Thompson was unable to place weight on his lower leg injury leaving the gym today, sources said. Everyone is hoping for the best. https://t.co/kcxYJczNmX

Houston is trading Trevor Ariza and the No. 16 pick tonight to Detroit for a future first-round pick, sources tell ESPN. The deal gives the Rockets - a hard-capped team -- the freedom to use their mid-level exception in free agency.

oh man poor klay

The Rockets are purchasing Detroit's 2021 second-round pick -- via the Lakers -- for $4.6M, sources tell ESPN.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) November 18, 2020

with whose money?

Klay's injury supposedly isn't the leg that he injured previously. Hoping for the best.

Wow this is an action packed draft already

givony & schmitz have at least been enmeshed in the scouting community for years, traveling around the world etc. they're much lower on guys like hayes & avdija

man i dont know if i can watch the draft now im too depressed

Exchanged texts with Mychal Thompson. He did not shed any light on Klay's status but the tone of his reply was quite sober for Mychal.

Avdija is a divisive prospect, kind of reminds me of Saric that way

god that sucks for klay

btw we are zooming here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86760255336?pwd=akZlNnhIMitBa0s2VlVIa1NyOVd5dz09

someone named "fuckin al" just tried to log on, show yourselves

i should be on close to 8 eastern, gotta eat dinner

Sacramento Kings forward Bogdan Bogdanovic plans to enter restricted free agency on Friday at 6 PM ET, sources tell ESPN.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) November 19, 2020

cracking up

i did not know you could just straight up sell a draft pick for cash.

maybe that's presti's plan. collect draft picks, sell them and make MILLIONS

i did not know you could just straight up sell a draft pick for cash.

yeah this is an age old thing -- robert sarver was famous for selling the suns picks for cash during the nash/amare years

i need 10,000 words on who fucked up this kings/bucks trade

What the fuck

there was an infamous draft where David Kahn fired Kurt Rambis and Glen Taylor was mad and said he had to make up the guaranteed money for Rambis's contact so Kahn spent the draft trading back and flipping picks for cash considerations

Nothing sadder than a poor owner of a sports franchise. #Mets

anyone have a stream for the espn draft converage?

would try nbabite.com

Timberwolves are fully committed to being the Timberwolves

lolllllll this was so obvious

felt like that was the pick

well shit

tfw you orient your entire franchise around d’angelo russell

I’m rooting for anthony Edwards
