3 predictions for tonight’s draft; 1. Andrew Nembhard gets drafted in the top half of round 2. 2. Kofi Cockburn doesn’t get drafted. 3. The Knicks screw up their first round pick.
Glover actually entered the draft but withdrew prior to the deadline. The confidence that he had in high school and lost under White is back.
Bachero comparisons on espn were Michael Beasley and Ben simmons. How does that make anyone feel better?

Beasley would have been good if he didn’t have all his off court issues, but Banchero is a lot bigger than him, and has huge thighs and legs which is critical for low post positioning. ESPN draft comparisons are always garbage, lol. He’s going to be a great scorer for Orlando, just not sure about his defense.
As a lifelong Knicks fan going back to the days of Willis Reed and Walt Frazier, totally perplexed about the moves they made last night. They are going all out for Jalen Brunson, but if that fails then what? The Winners and Losers of the 2022 NBA Draft

Beasley was constantly doing drugs throughout career. NBA teams need to assess how kids will handle the money and fame. Will they improve body, eat right, get rest, study playbook, cheer their teammates from bench and always be in gym, or be a distraction, not accept coaching, do drugs, be out late at South Beach, stay up late playing video games, …
I didn't watch much ACC b-ball this year, but I'm always a sucker for Tarheels v Dukies. IIRC, the Heels won away for Coach K's last regular season home game and again in the tourney. Is the Tarheels roster really great? I heard Duke had 4 players drafted in the first round. Don't think I heard that UNC had any. So with that great of a team around him I'm somewhat second guessing the Magic's #1 draft pick.
