2021 NBA Draft Thread

Our Pitino of the 2020s strikes again!

What is your criticism of Begarin?

[smokeablount]

Whoa, Juhann Bergerin??

How did you even know about him?

I’m not the guy you responded to but Cooper, him and Boston were actually rated the best 3 players available on the ESPN graphic.

I just preferred the other 2 for various reasons and also mainly because I know nothing about this guy.

Welcome to the squad Juhann Begarin. French Josh Okogie is not bad value at 45.

Off to bed finally.

How can you sleep with all the excitement of the 45th pick. Well you did say off to bed and not off to sleep.

Whoa, Juhann Bergerin??

WHO???

Athletic French wing

Stash pick?

Most likely. Still only 18 and has a tonne of physical upside. His build, size, wingspan and athleticism remind me of Jaylen (not at all comparing their ability to play ball)

The lad better have all the upside he can get, he played for a second division team in France last season. For everyone ****ing on Yam for playing on a team that's not the best in his country, a Eurobasket team is still one of the better teams in Europe, this is like a player who's a squad player for Brentford versus a superstar for Leicester City in football terms.

He moves like Jaylen. I was thinking the same thing as I watched him.

You mean soccer?

CFAN38 called it. Only reason I even knew this guy’s name. Probably a stash.

Would like to see us move GWill/Edwards, or some other way, for an extremely late 2nd so we can secure Giannis’ kid brother. You never know…

[Goldstar88]

Checked out the scouting report. This kid is explosive.

And there it starts…lol

Guess we should be the thankful that he’s not a 6’ guard or a 6’6” PF/C. Wish Brad flipped the pick for 2 future 2nds. Cooper or BJ Boston would have been low risk/high reward picks. Oh, well...

He is more explosive than Jaylen..and demonstrates the ability to finish through contact.

[GreenlyGreeny]

BTW, who’s gonna post some YouTube clips of this Frenchman? France has really upped their ball game in recent years, so I’m quite optimistic about this guy. Fournier could be a good mentor, too.

Giannis has another brother?

Yep and he’s only 19 (20 next month):

What are the odds the brothers are 50-50 versus 75-25 in terms of all-stars? Either way, I like the fantasy if it can be done for GWill/Edwards. Besides, Giannis may eventually leave Milwaukee now that he’s got them a ring, so this move would be remembered him in 4-5 years. Seems worth it.

No because I don't recognise American hand egg

lol.  stash?

Yes. I wonder if this means they expect to buy out Yam's contract and they preferred a draft and stash at 45.

I predicted we would go draft and stash at 45. Just got the wrong guy (Rokas).
