NBA Draft 2025 Open Thread

Suns are dumber than the Kings

 

[Sluggah]

It’s a shame networks can’t detect how often I mute the TV

 

[Tetsujin]

What are they trading for though?

 

[pdxKingsFan]

seizing the opportunity?

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Shouldn’t Phoenix drafted a wing if they had that Williams trade done

 

[Tetsujin]

Cedric Coward at No. 11 to Portland, per source, is being traded to Memphis for the No. 16 pick, a future first-rounder and two second-rounders.

The Grizzlies are sending No. 16, a 2028 first-round pick via Orlando and two seconds to Portland for Cedric Coward, sources said. https://t.co/vLA63Gg3G8

That’s pretty good value for the Blazers

Silver announcing that the 10th pick is PHX after the pick like it just happened is so asinine.

 

[Tetsujin]

Or a point guard for that matter.

Or a point guard for that matter.

Maybe CP3 will return

This is pretty much the dream trade of former poster Kb02. I wasted way too much of my time 2 years ago reading his posts about how the Kings messed up by not keeping picks that became Hardy and Prosper. He had them pegged as a couple future starters. Guessing Dallas doesn't agree... Lol

Thought that was sactowndog..not Kb02

 

[Sluggah]

I approve of the kid pics. Best addition to the draft.

 

[iowamcnabb]

what will the Bulls do? Queen?

 

[Caccia]

I just noticed that the Knicks do not have a first-round pick, either. They traded away 17, 19, and 26. Two of them go to Brooklyn and Jordi Fernández.

BREAKING... Live look at the Kings front office!

Saw a comp that made sense, Wendell Carter Jr. Kind of similar. A little bit more of a less athletic rumbler though.

[Tetsujin]

Getting into trade into the draft to get Jakucionis territory.

EVERY SINGLE GUY ON THEIR TEAM NEEDS THE BALL ASIDE FROM HERB HAHAH

It was me

Hardy is a 2nd round pick still in the league. (Though I like Keon better) and we gave up Prosper for a salary dump to be a play in team.

Well, at least we know Perry can't be worse than Dumars right? So that's positive.

 

[Tetsujin]

The Pels are now going to be horrible at defense. What the hell are they doing?

Moving on from Zion seems inevitable so they needed a new PF. I like Derik Queen, he's crafty and has good touch around the basket.

 

[chief bromden]

Pels are cursed so it really doesn't matter what Dumars does

Hold your tongue, the night is young. lol.
