2024 NBA Draft Thread

So Brisette is a goner now.

[Atzar]

Oh this kid can play.  Good pick, should be pretty NBA-ready.

Might be insurance in case Hauser wants to test free agency.  Not as good a pure shooter, but has some ability to create his own offense which Hauser does not have.

[mr. dee]

Will Brad keep him though?

He was always a goner.

[Who]

I like this pick. A shooter off the bench that rebounds. Having him and Sam will be huge

This is an upgrade over Brissett

A replacement for Svi, no?

A SG. A shooter. 6-6 180lbs.

Edit: Ringer has him at 202lbs. 180lbs may be an old weight.

the bold was the first thing I thought.   I hope Sam is back, but Baylor seems like a Sam replacement.

Why does Boston hate centers so much .

Is Ben Sheppard a good comp for Scheierman?

He had an okay rookie year for Indy.

6'6 208

He is more than a shooter. Can rebound and passes very well.

I know, I don't know why we pick a wing, when our most fragile position is Center / Big?
But yeah, Brad knows more.   Maybe there are other plans for the 3rd big.

they simply pick better players regardless of position. why acquire a mediocre to poor player simply because he plays center? get someone with an nba skill. scheierman shoots well, rebounds well, and passes well. he has a chance to be a rotation player next year.

[libermaniac]

Scheierman

Nailed it. TP

[GreenEnvy]

I really don?t get why they need to drag out the second round into another day.

It?s 2 minutes between picks. That?s an hour. And two were forfeited this year. I always found the second round to be fun between trades and seeing who slipped. Now it?s at 4pm? Weird.

They hate centers so much that they carried five of them this past season after the Tillman trade, lol.

You can never have enough shooting from 3 for Mazzulla Ball.

And he rebounds at a high rate.

He fits the Boston offense perfectly.

If you have him and Sam off the bench you have elite shooting from 3.

Plus he is 23 and seasoned. He can come in immediately and fill a need.

Resign Kornet and Tillman.
