Bouknight Draft Watch

So excited to watch the Big Baller and Bouknight play together for years to come. As a big fan of both this couldn't be any better.

Going into the draft I think everyone would have been happy with 11th. It's just everyone's expectations changed when we saw everyone talking about him in the 6-8 range. More motivation for him. Maybe Caron can talk to him.

Read he has his head down on the table after the 9th pick. Obv right move was to go but I think he thought he’d have gone top 10. If he knew he’d be out of the top 10 I really wonder if he would’ve come back one more year.

This take is so bad. Original mocks had him going anywhere between 11-20. He made his decision long before anyone thought he could go as high as 6.

How many college JRs have been selected so far? Just 1, and he won the national title. If Bouknight stayed he was likely going later in the draft next year than he would be going tonight. Being a year older is just another hurdle to you being drafted highly.

I was just going off what Borges said in his tweet after the 9th pick. I always personally thought 10-15.

 
I wouldn't even say Bouk looked miserable, that's just his demeanor. He looked like that the entire 2 years he was here and the entire time we recruited him too. And so many people criticized him for it the entire time
 
He has that “10 teams just made a huge mistake” type look in his eyes.
 
They just said Kobe was drafted 13th. Bouk has little reason not to celebrate and a lot of reason to prove them all wrong.

Exactly. If Bouk was picked 1st he would look the same. No jumping up and down for sure.

It is why he slipped, Bouk had flaws this year and those were the flaws. Fragile, loose handle. He’ll be a good pro, but that’s what hurt him. Many knew it, fanboys didn’t.

I’m not a Giddey fan. I just know 6’9” guards are rare and he played very well as a young player in a very good Australian league.

You say that about Bouk like Giddey doesn't have his flaws, you guys don't even watch the NBA I know for damn sure y'all not watching the NBL to see Giddey.

When was Bouk criticized for his demeanor? I remember a lot of posters doing it with Akok.
