Official 2022 NBA Draft Thread

Kendrick is really painful

Beyond what he's actually saying, he's just a very poor communicator. Can't speak with any kind of fluency or composure.

[Pelicanidae]

I wonder what the first trade of the draft will be. Very quiet thus far.

[MichaelMcNamara]

Indy should go Mathurin at 6. Blazers hold our fate in their hands....

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Congrats Ivey you escaped Sactown

The Pacers are locked on Arizona's Ben Mathurin with No. 6, sources tel ESPN.

and they do

So we're guaranteed one of Dieng, Sharpe, Daniels if that's who we want - which signs point to yes.

Daniels at 7. Sharpe at 8.

[Sovereign]

Daniels or Sharpe and I'm good. Gonna be a long night if it's Dieng

[Pelicanidae]

Please not Dieng

I would personally prefer none of them, since I had Griffin, Duren, and Tari Eason at #5, #6, and #7 on my board and they're both still there, but those are unlikely picks at this point. Nothing we've heard indicates any of them.

[MichaelMcNamara]

We have two offers on the table if Blazers go with Daniels. Will decide between those and Dieng. Sounds like they are leaning towards Dieng. Please Portland!!!

He sounds like Fat Albert, but on 50% playback speed.

It’s going to be a short night for me, i’ll shut off the tv in disgust and go work out

Maybe they take Sharpe?

[JR SMITH]

Daniels at 7. I like Dieng, but Sharpe is the pick at 8.

[Eman5805]

Perkins hurts by existence.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

I didn’t want us to draft Sharpe. But if we take Dieng over him, Sharpe will probably end up the goat like he predicted.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Please let Dieng be a smokescreen

[MichaelMcNamara]

Sharpe at 7..... Welcome Dyson!!!!!!!

You act like our historical franchise drafted Kobe and traded him away or something.

[Pelicanidae]

The Blazers are focused on Kentucky's Shaedon Sharpe at No. 7, per source.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) June 24, 2022

Looks like we'll be taking Dieng. For better or for worse.

[tdcreator]

I don't know how much you know about next year's draft, but trading a 2023 first rounder for another shot at the middle of the mediocre 2022 draft is a poor move.

I?m sure there will be 4-5 good to great players then a bunch of ok players just like every year. Players will rise and fall plus wasn?t saying give up a top 4-5 pick. I just think if Dieng is in that high regard we should consider it.

[ragincaucasian]

I am the modern day Nostradamus.

[SonOfNOLA]

Please no Dieng. Our frontcourt is good. We need Daniels or Sharpe bad.

2023 draft has 4 different guys who, right now, look like they'd go #1 in this draft

Wembanyama, the Thompson twins Amen and Ausar, and Scoot

[Sovereign]

Dyson!!!!
