2020 NBA Draft thread

Man.....

Now I know I'm not paid to cover basketball but today I actually had to call in to NBA radio on Serious XM and set Tim Legler and some other folks straight on Deni Avdija. Lol.

They were telling the listeners that the guy is touted as a shooter coming into the draft. I called and asked how could a guy who is shooting less that 60% from the line and less than 35% from three be considered a shooter. They were shocked at his shooting % numbers that I listed and tried to throw Fran Fracislla (who I doubt said he was a shooter) and Brad Daugherty (who doesn't really cover international prospects) under the bus. Lmao.

Makes you wonder outside of Tim (who played in the NBA) how some of these folks get paid to cover a sport or topic they don't do a lot of research on.

It was live. I called in about 40 minutes ago while I was driving. Usually I listen to mostly NBA radio while driving and it was the show that was on right before Give and Go which is the show that is on now. I just got back home from running some errands so that is why I'm posting this here.

I did hear that on Give and Go later, Fran Fraschilla would be on so I might call back in again. LMAO. I'm off work washing clothes so I have time today. Lmao

@#1hiphopjunki3 what are your thoughts on Killian Hayes? I think he’s the guy at the top of our draft board and the likely target via trading up. Guessing his floor is that 7-10 range.

I believe Hayes is going higher than the 7-10 range.

From a lot of the stuff I seen he is rated as the 2nd best point guard and a top 5 prospect in this draft
