    Prediction. Once the draft is over and everyone comes out with their 2023 mocks, Emoni Bates will not be mocked in the first round.

    No negative test from Seb yet. So Hulk will be driving for Aston Martin this weekend.

    That was a really nice game from Banchero against a really good defense. His footwork is absolutely gorgeous and his passing is pretty elite for a big. But he cant shoot the three and is a bad defender. He might be my Jalen Green for this year. Someone I don't really want but wont mind if they end up with him.

    I don't think the tournament did much to move my needle on Chet either way.

    Which is probably why I never compared their physical tools and instead compared how they both shot poorly against good competition.

    Sounds like the Vegas race will take place Thanksgiving weekend 2023.

    I agree with BPA. Missing on this draft would be pretty damaging. We are on the clock to put a team around Cade before he gets frustrated and wants out.

    I like athleticism but feel people overvalue it a bit. Giannis is athletic but the Bucks weren't, neither was Toronto or Golden State. Ivey gives me huge Stanley Johnson vibes. SJ shot 40% from three in college, which is good. But Drafted press did that article about him breaking his stats down. He feasted on bad competition and struggled with good teams. Ivey shooting less than 30% from three against big ten teams gives me that vibe.

    I can't listen to Chad Ford. Amazes me he still has a job after what he did. But it will be a disaster if someone takes Ivey #1. I did get a laugh from KOC saying Orlando should take Ivey. Nevermind Suggs, Fultz, and Anthony I guess. I guess him and Suggs could battle it out. First one to shoot 30% from three can start.

    KOC might be the worst draft analyst on earth. He is the one who had Killian #1 on his board that draft year. While I do disagree on a few guys here, I don't see much out of line. https://nbadraft.theringer.com/mock-draft

    A year ago I thought he made a huge mistake going to Ferrari. Probably my favorite driver on the grid. Sainz 'extremely close' to signing new Ferrari deal

    Easy to see why GSW isn't interested in trading him.

    It was a pretty dumb rule to begin with. He was able to sit front row and watch the game, but not play. Picture of him sitting front row at a game he could not play in.

    Haslem is a god in Miami and Jimmy, well he has shown in the past he might not be the best guy to lead a team. https://streamable.com/mgiaol

    Chicago is 0-16 against the top 3 seeds in each conference.

    He doesn't necessarily have to be quick enough to guard someone. He has to be good enough on offense to punish teams that go small. That is the problem in Utah with Gobert. He doesn't have the offensive game to counter teams that go small.

    I would not like that at all Chet has one elite skill and that is shot blocking. Moving him to the perimeter would negate that skill. Plus I'm not quite sure his three-point shooting will hold up enough to be a perimeter player. Also not sure he can guard guys in the perimeter like Mobley can.
  20. Deleterious
    My draft strategy is no Chet no Ivey.

    There are a few guys that could potentially be stars in this draft. But there are no guys like last year where I was confident they will be stars, like Cade, Green, and Mobley. That doesn't make it a bad draft. Just look at last year outside of the big 3. Guys who are already doing more than expected like Barnes, Giddey, and Wagner. And he isn't there yet because he was always a three year project, bug Kuminga is further ahead than expected. So you will probably get a couple of guys that pop from this draft. It might just be more difficult to find them. James Edwards III wrote an article for The Athletic saying the Pistons big board in order is Chet, Jabari, Keegan Murray, Paolo, Ivey, Griffin, and Mathurin.

    Luka has been over 4 TO's the past 3 years. We need to be more forgiving when a bigger nontraditional type is playing PG.
  23. Deleterious
    It probably doesn't impact Detroit at all. But Portland announced they are shutting Dame down for the remained of the season.
  24. Deleterious
    That is pretty cool.
  25. Deleterious
    The Pistons should be concentrating on one thing in this draft and that is shooting. Do not draft anyone that can't stroke it at a decent rate. We have our star now surround him players that will punish opposing teams for doubling him. The Pistons are currently the second worst 3PT shooting team in the league at 32.9%. It gets worse. On 3PTA's where the closest defender is 6+ feet away, basically a wide open 3PTA, they are dead last in the league at 33.9%.
