2023 nba draft thread: starring victor, scoot... and more!

the mid-second round aka the baja blast

The three-team talks on a Porzingis-Brogdon deal with Celtics, Wizards and Clippers have fallen apart, sources tell ESPN. Sides are moving on. https://t.co/WoNkOcTYe5

feel like brogdon prob shouldn’t cancel his movers tho

*placing finger to my ear*

The Wizards are still working on ways to get Kristaps Porzingis to the Celtics in an opt-in and trade scenario, but it won't be in a three-way with the Clippers, sources tell ESPN. Porzingis still has the ability to decline his $36 million player option and become a free agent.

there you have it just in under the wire he had until midnight to opt in

The Celtics are trading Marcus Smart to the Grizzlies as part of deal, sources tell ESPN.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) June 22, 2023

marcus smart is an old school grizzlies-type player too

im mad

;_;

just realized this is the draft thread lol

sorry that was my fault….

scooting up

Sources: Scoot Henderson is gaining serious momentum at No. 2 with the Charlotte Hornets in tonight’s NBA draft. Hornets have been torn over the last week between Henderson and Brandon Miller. Team has final meetings today to settle on decision.

the hornets are really funny gotta say

whats their deal no one even knows

mb their front office was set on miller then jordan drunk on the golf course calls them and says scoot who knows

also he already sold the team lol

it's because miller's been dissing jordan all week

apparently MJ is still making the final decision on the selection so he has a chance to go out on top (one final franchise killing draft pick)

gotta find this years adam morrison

nba draft is crazy

The Los Angeles Lakers are acquiring the 40th pick from the Indiana Pacers for No. 47 and cash, sources tell ESPN.

Have not heard his name at all until right now, from several sources, that Golden State is actively engaged in trade conversations regarding Jordan Poole.

— Jake Fischer (@JakeLFischer) June 22, 2023

poole trade seems inevitable

that's one of those ones you read and are just like "yeah i bet they are"

im honestly gonna miss him if he gets traded. what a wild ride.

and what a ride it was!

ESPN Sources: The Washington Wizards are finalizing a deal to send Chris Paul to the Golden State Warriors for a package that includes Jordan Poole and future draft assets. pic.twitter.com/kpNkhqFicp

he looks like a mcpoyle

all that glitters...

Lol

it's time for this

sir this is a wemby's now lets goooooooo

2/3 will be interesting how it falls

I see shams is doing his spoiling again lol

i accidentally saw a shams' RT for #2, thinking i may mute him

mj rides agaiinnnnnnnn

any good alternate streams this year

espn's "best fit" thing is annoying "instead of the guy you should take here's some rando that fits better for reasons"

Rough week for me with uncertain near future, tell me that the Warriors at least have at least secured their future by trading CP3 for Wemby or something.

REBOOT WITH SCOOT ((TM) CLAY 2023)

Scoot's jacket at least fits him, looking at you, DICK.

sir this is a wemby's now lets goooooooo
