Keeping track of the ever changing 24-25 roster
-
I think all the competition is going to be a good thing for us. Hustle will outdo “ranked” any day of the week for Self. I like that Passmore has a fight in him and wants to prove it. That old ‘chip on his shoulder’ that @drgnslayr
has always liked!Hope your all well. It’s going to be a great week to be in LFK to see all the players return for Roundball Classic
. Can’t wait to see the clips and posts.
-
So whats the final roster look like now?
-
@RockChalkinTexas I watched it on cox cable last night, meaning it’s probably on espn+. I think I finally cancelled mine till fb.
-
Isn’t there a younger Braun still left? Wonder if Self would have him walk on. Don’t hear much about him, maybe he’s playing somewhere. Never mind, he’s going to university of Nebraska Omaha.
-
I’m excited to see this team play and watch them come together throughout the season.
Are we playing abroad this summer? Any known scrimmages planned with another D1 team? Do I really have to wait until November? lol
Picked a tomato yesterday that looked like a basketball because of its scars… perhaps an omen!
-
@drgnslayr we can’t play abroad for another couple years since we did last year. Also seems like Self has pivoted away from beating up on the MIAA schools twice to having a “secret” scrimmage and exhibition so I bet we’ll hear about that toward the fall.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Any idea when KU is planning to announce the non-confernce portion of the basketball schedule? I know we know part of the schedule, but it’d be nice to know all of the non-conference schedule since it’s almost July. For comparison, KU announced their non-confernce schedule for the 2023-2= season on June 5 last year.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I don’t, but it could be any time now. The year before it was late June if memory serves. Not sure if they’re waiting on some buy game contracts to get finalized or what
-
@FarmerJayhawk - IIRC, that “beating up on MIAA schools” gave them most of the money for their athletic department budgets. That will be hard to replace if discontinued.
-
@Gorilla72 it’s just scaled back to one per year instead of two I believe

This NBA Draft feels so soft

Zach ?Edey at # 9 ? - I think is to high for him , can’t se him translating to that high of a pick
-
@approxinfinity oh gawd it’s a real dumpster dive of a draft

This is considered one of the weakest drafts in recent history. Pretty much the only reason why Furphy and McCullar have any shot at being 1st round picks this year.
-
As long as Furphy ends up avoiding New Orleans at 21 or Washington at 26 in the 1st round, he should end up in a pretty good situation where he’ll be on a good team and not counted on to be a major factor early on. That’ll give him time to develop which likely means spending a decent chunk of his rookie year in the G-League.
-
I am personally happy with the Rockets pick getting Reed Shepherd. I don’t necessarily see him being the best in the draft, I think that’ll end up be Sarr or Holland, but Shepherd fills a big need for Houston as a shooter. If his defense is serviceable, Shepherd could turn into one of the top shooters in the league very quickly and make Jalen Green an expendable piece in a trade. The Rockets did offer Green as part of a package to the Nets for Bridges at the trade deadline last season, so he’s definitely not someone Houston is fully committed to at this point.
-
Raptors next. Furphy and Dick?
-
Nope.
-

Nope, Walter from Baylor. That wouldn’t be a great fit for Furphy because he’d be directly fighting with Dick for time.
Hopefully New Orleans looks elsewhere besides Furphy.
-
Cleveland would’ve been a good fit for Furphy, but they went Jaylon Tyson from Cal instead.
-
NO takes Missi from Baylor.
-
If he goes second round did he get bad info?
-
Almost certainly. Shoot even the NBA thought mid first
-
New York taking Kyshawn George means Furphy slipping to at least 26 now. I hope Furphy doesn’t go there because Washington is in the beginning phases of a massive rebuild and will be pretty bad for the next several years.
-
Filipowski is NY’s likely other pick because of them losing Hartenstein to free agency and needing to replace him.
-
Wow, another wing before Furphy. At this point, it’s definitely looking like Furphy made the wrong decision at this point.
-
Wild. Hopefully he’s more motivated than ever
-
Real shot Furphy slides out of round 1 now. Minnesota needs a PG to eventually replace Conley, Utah doesn’t need a wing, Denver has Braun, so Boston seems.like the best bet unless someone trades up to Furphy.
-
Terrance Shannon to Minnesota, thought they’d go Kolek to get Conley’s replacement.
-
Happy Shannon went there. What a travesty he went through here
-
Cmon Boston, Aussie is practically Irish!
-
Wollp
-
What a weird draft
-
Weber State and Creighton did well. WTF
-
Maybe he will go undrafted and return for his soph year
-
@approxinfinity - assumed name of Furry Jonphy?
-
No, he would be eligible to return if undrafted
-
Really?
-
Thats what I read
-
Just read it too!
INTERESTING
-
He’s def going in the 2nd round
-

Time to make up a career threatening injury suffered on Broadway before 4 PM tomorrow
-
Damn, wasn’t he invited to the Green Room??!! Stupid NBA.
-
Kind of shocked actually.
-
Looks like the NBA folks don’t care for a player that completely disappears in the second half. I hope he goes in the second round or really improves if he has to come back. I would hate a repeat of his freshman performance.
-
I’d pull out right now if I’m him. He’s a lottery pick next season no question if he develops. He’s guaranteed nothing as a second round pick.
-
drafted players in the NBA can refuse to play for the team that drafted them
Tell all teams he will refuse to play for them… until next year.

This isn’t possible.

Not how the draft works. Closest he could do to that would be to refuse to sign with whoever drafts him, play a season in the NBL at home, and re-enter next draft. Danny Ferry is the only player to go that route when he flat out refused to play for the Clippers in the early 90’s and spent a season in Italy. This path would have its own risks as well and would not be advisable as next year’s draft is being hyped as a potential all time draft.
-
What’s crazy about Furphy’s slide is because it’s happening for the exact opposite reason Dalton Knecht slid from top 10 lock down to 17. Furphy’s slide is supposedly because of how young and raw he is while Knecht’s slide was because he was too old.
