ClutchFans 2021 NBA Draft Thread (7/29/2021)

Depending on who gets picked, or if we deal the pick, the board is very apt to implode. That, or explode. Duck and cover!

 

There's nothing new under the sun.

 

That was my point! haha

 

We've been waiting since January for this - come on!!

 

ESPNs pre show has started talking Jalen.

 

anyone have a link? first year these nba idiots don’t have the feed on intl LP

 

I've heard this guy can shoot.

 

what have I missed and who did we get

 

I feel like now is the calm before the storm

 

Google "NBAbite"

 

A new #4 in H-Town

 

LOL Detroit traded Wood to make room to sign Plumlee (and Grant) IIRC, trades down to dump him 1 year later.

 

Looks like the models missed on MCW.

 

I'm pulling for Mobley, but it looks like we're taking Green. That's fine, let's do it. If he can play D then he'll be great. If he can't play D, then we'll have to play team D to help cover.

For 23 and 24 I want some of these players (and most may be long gone):
Sengun, Garuba, J Johnson, K Jones, Jackson

I like Dosunmu but he might be older than I'd like

I don't love Sharife Cooper but he's mocked to us a bit and he can draw FTs better than anyone. Probably fine for pick 23 or 24.

I don't want a PG or SG as I think we're stacked there. If we have to pick one, I'd prefer Hyland or Primo or Springer.

I prefer younger across the board. If you're a senior, then I probably skip you outright. A junior? Maybe I'd consider it.

As a UT fan, I can say that their basketball coach has sucked for years and their players do well in the NBA for the most part (especially bigs in the last few years, despite Bamba being a question mark). I think people are sleeping on Greg Brown, in that I think he's a late first round pick. I'd be fine with us taking him at 23 or 24. Some mocks have him in the 50s, I think that's way too low. Sims in the second round is a good value pick. K Jones could be worth a top 15-20 pick but it's a bit up in the air. He's definitely worth 23 or 24, IMHO, but he won't make it to us there.

 

Can't believe we're passing on the Bosh/AD hybrid
