This NBA Draft feels so soft
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.
-
@Woodrow I thought he could return idk how it works anymore lol

He could only return if he’s not drafted and met all other eligibility requirements to return. You can’t withdraw from the draft in the middle of the draft, that deadline was about a month ago.
-
Why did they make the draft 2 days? Clearly it was so Johnny Furphy could work behind the scenes to tell all teams not to draft him.
-
Round 2 now underway with Toronto on the clock.
-
Still no Furphy after the first 3 picks in round 2.
-
Tyler Kolek to Portland at 34, who’s being traded to NY.
-
Furphy finally gets selected at 35 going to the San Antonio Spurs.
-
I personally hate that Furphy is in San Antonio because I hate the Spurs, but that’s a great situation for Furphy with a team that’s on the rise with Wemby.
-
Furphy not staying in San Antonio long as the Spurs and Pacers swapped the 35th and 35th picks so Furphy going to Indiana now.
-
that’d be crazy if Furphy and McCullar end up on the Pacers!
-
McCullar would actually be a great fit for the Warriors. May be the only guy on that team to play defense.
-
And as expected, Bronny James goes 55 to the Lakers to play with his dad.
-
And McCullar going 56 to Phoenix who is sending that pick to the Knicks.
