2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
Is it bad that he reminds me of Mutumbo?
Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
Cool! I was impressed with what I saw last season against us. We got the whole Charlotte Hornets center rotation, lol.
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.

I have a bias for these types of guys who come from ridiculously adverse backgrounds. Even if their talent isn't elite, they'll work their ass off.

Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
Each of these moves works independently, but are super weird together. I don't think you can play Maluach and Williams at the same time. This also bumps Oso out of the rotation and I imagine we'll trade Nick Richards now.

Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
How could that possibly be bad in any way?

Which means it can’t be completed until after July 1.

Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
I don't understand what we're doing. Richards, Williams and Maluach? No power forward on the roster?

No clue what we are doing. Maluach, Richards, and Williams at center currently.

Maluach isn't ready to start or to play 30 minutes. He has a long way to go.

Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
Really hoping grayson and royce are getting moved to plug these other holes.
Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
You don't like Oso at PF?
But yeah, looks like there are more moves coming.

Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
Oso should be a PF if he can shoot at least corner 3's.

Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
Great for us, but the Nets aren't going to trade a first round pick for either of those guys.

Williams is due to make $6.277 million next year, so they could be sending Cody Martin back ($8.69 million) for Williams (and filler?) in some sort of deal.

Re: 2025 NBA DRAFT NIGHT!
I don't know anything about Malauch. All I can say is that in general I don't mind drafting a C, and I found it really endearing that he got emotional and cried at being drafted. I bet the guy is a really good dude who will be really grateful and an awesome teammate. Does that make him a great NBA center? Who knows. All I have read so far is that he is really raw and will need time to develop.
But then we trade two 1sts for another center? And now we have taken all of the Cs from Charlotte? Mark Williams seems like a talented player, but why do we keep just tossing around draft picks? We give away 27ppg scoring Kevin Durant for *one* 1st, but we attach *two* 1sts to get an okay center? We just can't help ourselves with throwing in all these picks into these trades. It's the sign of an inept front office; these teams push us to put in more picks into trades and we just say yes. It is also weird to trade #29 before seeing who is available there. What if Wolf was still around?
