Is nuanced the same as I don’t know WTF I’m talking about? Asking for a friend.

your friend probably wouldn't understand

Example A of why

Outside of McNeeley. These situations are different because these guys draft were at peak heights while being lottery.

If McNeeley thought he was going to fall into the mid 20s he may have made a different decision.

The point is this board is littered with posts of people saying they won’t go as high as they actually did, they aren’t ready, they should stay another year, etc.

Yeah I’m usually on the side of it’s time for this player to go in all the cases you named. They had nothing more to gain here.

Not 100% sold on that being the case with Mullins yet. I’m still stunned at how his numbers look against the rest of the top 20.

College basketball is just so loaded this year

( Why do we have to do this every year. So stupid. He’s gone and all likelihood a lotto pick. Shut up and accept it.

He’s gone ( we all we’re hoping that he was this good and he’s a better player than we were expecting) and he’s deserving of the lottery, he’s a know entity, incredible shooter, passer, extremely smart plays well defensively and has a great feel for the game. He will be missed but he will represent UConn better in the NBA than any of our recent draft picks besides DC and S. Castle. Some of those players reputations benefited greatly by playing for UConn during their back to back championship years and their recent lack of success in the league proved that. Whether another year at UConn would’ve helped ( I think it could’ve helped especially Booknight ). JMHO

we're gonna see some nasty stuff the next couple of months if teams are already doing this in February. I get this draft is potentially an all timer but ever since the odds have changed we've seen teams with the worst records not get rewarded.

It's mostly about still guaranteeing themselves a star player in this year's draft. They have a worse chance at Darryn Peterson than in the past but I think there's value in locking in a top 5 pick and knowing you'll get one of Peterson, Boozer, Dybantsa, Wilson, Flemings (?)

This level of tanking is still gross though
