They didn’t draft and trade immediately. That pick was part of the Julius Randle trade from yesterday. Brooklyn was technically making the pick.

However, in other instances when teams do draft someone and trade them immediately: the other team who is trading tells the team who to draft, and then the draft rights for that player get traded.

Like in the 2024 draft: Spurs and Wolves are talking about the Wolves wanting the Spurs’ #8 pick. Spurs don’t really need the #8 pick since they got the guy they wanted at #4 (Stephon Castle). Spurs like the Wolves offer and the Spurs ask who the Wolves want in the draft. Wolves wanted Dillingham. Spurs select Dillingham and then he gets immediately traded.

I personally think this class is very similar to the typical Matt class. ISU is not getting 4 and 5 star guys. We need to get the right 3 star guys. Matt won with culture. I honestly think Jimmy and staff may be better on game day. Time will tell. QB play is going to be critical. That one position saw the biggest improvement under Matt. Before Matt we rarely had an advantage at QB. Brock changed that.

Pretty quick FT whistle there, no? Multiple stoppages after 90', but nothing added to the 6.

England game was the same way. Even when they add extra extra time I feel like it's never close to enough.

Awesome, I hope we get to watch him play for a long time. If he's good enough he'll end up on a playoff team at some point.

MC was a threat to them for a decade so they tried to wish him away for a decade. And now they’re doing the same with TJ- he owns their a…s so they can only hope he goes away.

I'd be surprised if his show stays on KXNO. Iheart can say they are done with local programing altogether. Sean was the program director and without a local person in that position now they may not care for keeping that show in the lineup

Definitely going to tune in to hear what Ken has to say. He could just go out in a blaze and trash iheart as he really has nothing to lose at this point. I hope he does and drops the mic lol

Yeah I have a feeling Ken is going to go hard on it. Hell knowing IHeart though they may not even let his last show air tomorrow.

Get league pass. Should be able to watch a lot of JJeff, and Tyrese when they are not on national TV.

Selfishly I wanted the Spurs to take him so Boris Diaw could get with him in the gym. I thought an early 2010s Boris Diaw would be a perfect comp for JJ.

100% agree. Can't have our cake and eat it or whatever though. JJeff feels like a natural fit to spare Randles minutes next year.

Nate Silver and some of his NBA friends put out a franchise ranking every year.

A year ago, after a trade so shocking that it literally made me wonder whether I was hallucinating1 sent Luka Doncic to Los Angeles, I ranked all 30 NBA teams by a deceptively simple criterion: their likelihood of winning future championships over the next 10 NBA seasons.

Here is Brooklyn at #24 in the association.

24. Brooklyn Nets ⇩

(Nate: 23 ↓, Joseph: 22 ↓, Jeremias: 25 ⇩)

Nate: As a Michael Porter Jr. fantasy owner, I found it a little baffling5 that he didn’t get traded. MPJ was, however, perhaps the one and only reason to watch a team for a slick but perpetually underperforming product that’s never really sold in discriminating NYC. The draft capital, mostly from the Knicks, is good. Maybe they’ll get something out of their scratch-off ticket 2025 draft haul (Danny Wolf figures to be a fan favorite, at least ). But there’s an empirical question about where to rank a team that has plenty of draft capital but not yet any premium talent. My past work suggests that rebuilds aren’t so easy from this sort of starting point.

So when was Boyd expected back? Even if he's ready soon- is there a kid with the I-Cubs who can eat innings? And Wicks is not an answer

Brown
Imanaga
Rea
Assad
Boyd??

Boyd is going to be activated Thursday.

In terms of outlook, there is no outlook. It's bleak out there, not really a good franchise. Which I guess is good since he'll have a good chance of being a rotational player there.

Agreed, it's good for him for sure. Just sucks that he's unfortunate enough that he had to wait until the end of the first round and still get taken by a lottery team.
