Zach Eden isn’t lottery??
DP in his bag. 😤
This year's draft is terrible.. Hope the rockets trade their nets pick(s) for KD.
Let’s go Washington 🥳
As a diehard Spurs fan: If we get the 1st overall pick. We are going to draft Risacher no question about it.
If the Toronto pick does convey, Topic will possibly drop because of his injury. So why draft Topic at 1 when he is easily the one who could fall, no way Risacher falls out of the top 5. Even if Topic isn't there at 7-10 there is Stephon Castle, Isaiah Collier, Jared McCain, even though i don't like him Reed Sheppard and Rob Dillingham.
So if we do have the 1st overall pick no way we are letting Risacher walk
Not a Spurs fan, but if they get 1st and 7th, I'd be okay drafting Topic at 1, but if Holland available at 7th, I'd take it. One of the highest ceilings in the draft, and that would be a massive w for SA in a draft where there's no much star talent.
Great vid Derek
Keep up the great work 🔥
Reed Sheppard is absolutely the perfect pick for the rockets
Cant get enough of these draft vids! I’m counting the days to the lottery..
Interesting zag with the Wizards taking Castle. I feel like most people would think Dillingham but I agree with your reasoning for why the FO would take Castle.
You gotta do a full first round mock draft. There’s a lot of talent outside the lottery too
Completely agree on the Thunder. I think they swap places with Houston to make sure they get Cody.
DP! Bringin' the groceries!
I love Cody Williams. I truly believe, if given the chance, the Williams boys will be amazing. Will be.
You said it, Cody is raw. BUT, no matter who drafts him, Jalen is going to be working out with him this summer. His footwork will be better as will his shooting mechanics.
If he is on the board, Presti has to take him. Genetics are real.
That said, you know I'm big on Cody's Colorado teammate, Tristan da Silva. If we get Cody, is there a scenario you see that would get us both?
First of all, let’s get this on straight the NBA fixes the draft they say they don’t but they do and there’s no way they’re gonna drop the wizards or the Detroit that low if they did the back lash would be massive on the nba . Especially since this is not considered that great of a draft. Both those teams will be no lower then 4
Would have gone Alex sarr and dilingham for the spurs
I like how every mock draft has the Spurs picking number one even though that’s not their projected pick and the Hornets picking like 6 or even though that’s not probable at all.
While i agree that the bulls should rebuild, no way you have them drafting Rob when Coby is their future guard?! Considering all our forwards were injured left and right, i assumed u would have us drafting Cody Williams
I love the idea of Cody Williams as a okc fan he’s top 3 in players I want okc draft.We need bigger wing players plus with a limited role I think he will do good since he would mainly just be ask to be a good defender and hit open shots which he can do and he won’t be required to create much kinda similar to what Cason Wallace was for us this year.
I think at bare minimum he can become a great 3 and d player with some occasional shot creation ability
Should grizzlies get edey or Clingan
Would not hate if Cody fell to okc.
My dream of course is still sarr for us.
For me, I'd rather see the Spurs take Alex Sarr here. I don't really think Topic is an improvement over Jones because he can't shoot and doesn't play D. At a minimum, Sarr is somebody who can go against wemby every day in practice to accelerate his development.
"Randomized", San Antonio moving up to 1 and the Raptors pick falling just to 7 sounds pretty biased to me, wonder how many times you ran that simulation lmao
If the Spurs got the 1st pick, I think they’d go BPA, and not reach for a PG. They can get a serviceable point in free agency or stick with Tre Jones for another year. Also, with a twin towers setup, they can draft a better, younger wing, or even Dillingham, who I would normally pass on. They need help on defense when Wemby’s on the bench, so having Sarr makes sense to rotate
Hot take, the spurs would want to take sarr at the 1 or 2 spot. I know they like foreign fundamentals, but you draft the best player and build the team after with trades and development. sarr and wemby at the 4 and 5 would be insane. The only reason this is a hot take is because the free agency class this year 2024 is so weak for point guards, spurs likely going to have to draft a pg at the 1-5. Immanuel quickley, james harden, maybe dlo. but if i can predict the future, spurs draft sarr, and sign tyus jones in free agency.
