2020 NBA Draft Thread (Twitter spoilers friendly)

[Capt. Factorial]

This is the 2020 NBA draft thread. Talk about the 2020 NBA draft here. Spoil whatever Woj/Shams/etc. say if you like.

Remember a few years ago when the NBA told Woj to stop spoiling things so he made it into a game and tweeted stuff like...

“The _____ are LASER FOCUSED on _________ at pick ___”

That was amusing.

You know it's a great draft when the team that got the #1 pick is desperately trying to pawn it off as they're going on the clock...

Wolves taking Edwards

Edwards is pretty much the guard version of KAT in terms of mentality so this should work great

Beat me to it

This was sarcasm by the way

I guess they're keeping him, then?

I think if a trade were brewing Wiseman would have been the target at #1

My Warriors fan cousin has been begging to be cheering for the Balls for years now. He’s hoping so hard for Liangelo.

I guess. I don’t like this for them at all lol

With Klay out of the way, there's a backcourt slot open!

This might actually make sense now that Klay is possibly done done

Me neither. Poor stats in college, poor effort, doesn't have the alpha dog mentality.

Had to look it up. LiAngelo is playing for the OKC Blue apparently.

Might be more the guard version of Anthony Bennett . . .

 

[The_Jamal]

I wouldn't have minded Wiseman to the wolves tbh. Offensively, would have worked just fine and could figure it out on defense.

 

[dude12]

Wiseman is the target

 

[Gguod]

Wolves just got rid of Wiggins and they drafted Edwards #1.. I usualy never advocate for giving up additional assets for trading up. This is a situation I really would've liked for Vlade to build for the future and gain some additional first so we could've traded up for Lamelo.

To me he is a big risk but a risk worth taking considering the other prospects

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Wiseman is the target

Woj is such a snarky, erm, jerk.

 

[SacTownKid]

Haha, could be. Still, have to take the gamble there but those football comments give on pause for sure.

 

[Tetsujin]

GS: Wiseman
Hornets: Ball

 

[Tetsujin]

The top three off the board as expected. Here’s where things get fun

Time to see if those "Bulls Love Patrick Williams" rumors have any legs at all.

Was this scout related to James Wiseman?

 

[Tetsujin]

Woj and Shams going quiet seems to indicate action going on in the trade market

 

[SacTownKid]

And at pick 12, the fun likely dies, haha.

Seriously. I mean Wiseman says in the article (from a year and a half ago) that "people say" that he plays like Robinson, Garnett, and Bosh but I have a hard time seeing a gainfully employed NBA talent evaluator saying that.
