2024 NBA Draft Thread

Denver 2nd rounders are basically UDFAs
Hopefully they have other picks too.

I agree. That would be lame.

 

[Evil Ash]

No way we pick that fast....

We're picking for the nuggets from the looks of it

 

[Mainstreet]

As I mentioned on the Suns draft thread, @Chaplin nailed it.

Lakers have 55 so 56 does not get a shot at Bronny, for those who care.

Yup, Suns are dumb. That's essentially just trading the 22nd pick for the 28th pick. So lame.

 

[Chaplin]

Good chance Ryan Dunn is there at #28. The biggest threat to take him previously were the Knicks, but since they have OG and Mikal now, Dunn likely won't get picked by them.

My guess is they use 1st rounder for a player and the 2nd rounders are traded for a vet

Eh. The future seconds are deadline trade chips

2nd rounders are more valuable then you think.

#28 and 3 second round picks. Denver 2nd rounders are going to be in the high 50's, so yeah, basically worthless.

Great job as usual by James Jones.

Yeah it might be ok. Depends on what they get at 28.

 

[Folster]

Denver gets a nice player behind Aaron Gordon.

It's a deep draft. Hopefully the Suns have done their homework. Also, it gives the Suns some draft picks they can use in a future trade.

[Vacard]

Wtf is wrong with this team??

 

[Yuma]

Rumor is we were willing to buy our way into the second round. Wondering if those future picks will be ammo to do that?

 

[Folster]

Does anybody know if the other 2nds are Denver's? Or do they own another team's future 2nd?

 

[Finito]

Wtf is wrong with this team??

James Jones is really really bad

 

[Chaplin]

So you're upset about getting 3 extra draft picks by dropping only 6 spots in a below average draft? There is barely any difference between picks 10 and 30 in this draft.

I thought 2nd apron teams were prohibited from doing that?

If we get Dunn or Kolek then it's okay, I guess.

Why would we care when it is clear lebron is not coming here.

 

[Chaplin]

You're right, but it makes for good drama in the 2nd round of the draft.

 

[BirdGangThing]

well that sucked

 

[Mainstreet]

Yeah it might be ok. Depends on what they get at 28.

This is the key to the trade. The Suns must feel they can get a player they like there.
