2025 NBA Draft Thread

[BullDawg]

Why all these swaps of players already picked? Why didn’t the team who picked first pick who they wanted when they had the choice? Is there nothing else but the swaps happening?

 

[uconngb]

Carry on talking about her eggs, it's not weird at all.

I’m w you man…..weird comment only made more weird by the fact she swings for the other team

 

[auror]

A couple of mocks had McNeeley at 25 to Orlando, so we'll see if that's the pick.

Most of the trades are agreed to before the earlier pick of the swap, they just don't announce them to the crowd right away and sometimes can't become official until later.

If that’s the case guarantee that’s not what he went into this expecting

 

[Purple Stein]

Hope McNeeley makes everybody pay for years.

If I’m Karaban, I feel very good about not being in this draft.

 

[storrsroars]

She’s hot but it’s gonna be kinda hard for her to reproduce

There's science for that.

 

[RuffRuff]

It ain’t looking good for our boy…..I believe he made a mistake

Hindsight 20/20 but def looking that way. There are still a lot of guys on the board that were slated at about his level or even above.

Personally I think the concerns with him are defensively - kid was a road cone.

Have we seen a UConn player drop this hard on draft day? Liam drops to second certainly gonna have an interesting UConn legacy.

Hey, I'm trying to help women's basketball here! They need legacies!

 

[UCLJ0211]

Liam going to either Brooklyn or Boston

Clearly you aren’t old enough to remember Uncle Cliffy

.weird comment only made more weird by the fact she swings for the other team

well that was the whole point

 

[UCann]

Liam going to either Brooklyn or Boston

Brooklyn to Boston to Phoenix?

 

[3rdbass]

Maybe the Celtics?

Was not hindsight on my part……as you say he can’t defend a mannequin and the injury clearly set him back

 

[uconngb]

well that was the whole point

Say what now?

 

[gtcam]

I'm sorry but Liam just didn't show enough during the past season. I fully appreciate the injury and it did play a big part.
I am not one to say ignore the $ and stay in school. However, NIL $ is pretty damn good for someone of his ability and another full season could have helped him. He is ending up in AK area soon
He is young and has the potential to be very good. I truly wish him the best.

Cliff Robinson

 

[storrsroars]

I'll spare you from going down the same rabbit hole I'm digging, but the point was all these great genes are going to waste. We don't get to have a Taurasi Jr or Bird Jr.

It's a national travesty!

Should have reinjured his ankle for the season after the Creighton game

 

[DemonDeac22]

This is like watching a train wreck in slow motion. I feel bad for Liam.

You should pivot and focus on Olivia Dunne.

Well, at least Liam isn't crying like Wolf.

 

[ec33]

No way those kids don't go to LSU.

 

[storrsroars]

I have no doubt Livvy and Paul are gonna make superhumans.

 

[auror]

3 to go...

 

[storrsroars]

Who is this guy again?
