This feels like a weak draft. Is it talked about as being a good draft class?

There is not much to get that excited about.

It's kinda flat after the top picks...

Wow, Roddy this early!

I missed a few picks, but signed on to say the same thing.  I just don’t see it with him at all.
He's really weird as a prospect. Like a 260lbs guard.

a bit like Royce White?

I think there are some guys with really high potential (the top 5, Mathurin, Jalen Williams, Sharpe), but I think this draft will shine with the amount of role players it produces.

I said multiple times I thought Banchero was the best player in this draft. No surprise to me that he impressed enough to make the Magic take him #1.

Also nice to see my man, Jalen Williams go #12. Would have loved to seen him in Green.

Unfortunately he was just 40 spots ahead of us  :laugh:

I have interest in Kennedy Chandler as a guy with PG instincts who can break down a defense off the dribble.  Wouldn’t mind trading in to get him if possible.

This guy Shaedon Sharpe did not play at all last year. Feels like Dante Exum. Floating in on hype rather than proven ability.

Although Kanter ... was better than Exum.

There's a lot less mystery surrounding Sharpe.

Surprised Watson was a first rounder.

I can't help but feel Banchero is built for the NBA of 15 years ago more so than the NBA of today.

was hoping for a deal to get into the first round but that was a bust.  will end up reading about another draft and stash with #53 in the morning
