The Official SPOILERS 2022 NBA Draft Thread

Sounds like Monte did the 49 trade to actually get Sasha and not just get money.

Have a feeling Sochan will be the best player outside the top 3 since the Spurs took him.

I've read good things about him but also that he had a bit of a disappointing final 4 in the Euros. But an outstanding regular season. So ok.

Will he be available this year because I also saw something that said his contract ran until next year?

Has NBA buyout options this year and the next.

Monte is really going to bat for Keegan. This is legitimately the most wound up I've ever seen him.

Monte certainly targeting a certain archetypes with these UDFA signings

Basically calling all the mock draft weenies who think he's low ceiling losers. I love it lol

Kyrie to the Knicks would be the biggest fanbase troll of all! I give him 3 weeks before spraining an ankle and teasing fans with "is he healthy or not?" rumors for the rest of the season or just straight up deciding to move to India and study transcendental meditation. Maybe both?

when an individual walks around with one of these, you know he is seeking a higher calling, it's simply a question of how soon will he achieve this feat.

 

[The_Jamal]

LOL.

"Was there any element of fit/readiness for Keegan that pushed you towards him?"

"NO"

I love it

This was so obviously a Monte and Brown guy like yeah if there was a 4 -> 5 deal to be had and still get him he'd have done it but there was no good trade down here. If you don't like Monte that's fine but this is totally his team I think we can cool it with all the weird conspiracy stuff, he's even signing undrafted guys, maybe he actually knows what he's doing?

I'm hoping Monte signs UCLA SF/SG Johnny Juzhang to a Undrafted FA contract. I think he can be a rotation player in the NBA.

Yeah, definitely sounding like Monte is going to try to get Sasha to come over this summer.

Jill seemed really irritated 30 mins ago she is ok now?

 

[KaiJonesBall]

I've been talking him up quite a bit at 49 so I'm happy about this but it doesn't make up for passing on EJ friggin Liddell.

Herb Jones followed up by Liddell. Pelicans doing it two years in a row. Mike Brown could have done some nice things with him.

Well, that sucks! Hopefully, Monte can sign some more undrafted players to our G-League team and see if someone pans out

I wonder if Iowa will have send off party for Keegan. If so, I’ll go since it’s an hour from my place.

She, like most of us were ready to jump off a cliff before the UDFA guys and a good report on Sasha came out.

It's still dumb to pass on the talent that was sitting there at 37, but it's more understandable if Keon Ellis and they're confident they can get Sasha over this season.

 

[ESP47]

Herb Jones followed up by Liddell. Pelicans doing it two years in a row. Mike Brown could have done some nice things with him.

Yep and even if he never developed, at least you could say that the Kings took the guy that most thought was BPA at the time.

Now they'll just wind up with the 49th and 54th pick a few years down the line that'll just be thrown in randomly with a low level trade.
