JJeff is a !st rounder!!!!!

Can someone explain to me why they would draft him and then trade him immediately? Can they not just trade the pick? I don't know the NBA.
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.

Serious Question: How does ISUs football recruiting look so far?

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.

KXNO Sports Fanatics

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.

As someone who doesn't follow pro sports other than seeing what former Cyclones are up to. What's the outlook at Brooklyn like.

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.
