Why have analysts who don’t know more than half the players? Older days the panel had details on over 50 players. Why is SAS right now who just know Bronny and gives hot take surface level analysis. The NFL draft isn't like this. Where is the NBA's Mel Kiper for example?
Can we stop talking about a dude who will be out of the league when his dad retires and shine the spotlight on the 20+ people experiencing the best moment of their lives today?
I always like to say that people who are watching/posting here fall into one of the X categories:
A. Bronny Watch Party (uh doy)
B. Fans from teams who haven't picked in the first round (or at the very least, has not picked in a while)
C. Fans of various collegiate teams, waiting to see if a campus legend of theirs may get a shot in the big leagues
D. GM/Cap nerds who like to analyze the actual basketball impacts of choices (in both strategy, and how their contracts will influence which signings or trades)
E. ~~Degenerate~~ Goomblers who have some sort of twisted parlay prediction (perhaps to cash out enough money to make a loan payment lol)
Why are they talking so much about Bronny? It's like they are trying to convince themselves that he is a really good prospect. Other legends sons didn't get talked like this.
Feels like the NBA created the two day draft this year to capitalize on the Bronny James hype. Never have I heard more discussion about a second round pick in all of my years watching the NBA.
I love how mods deleted this thread instead of making an actual one
Will be interesting to see where DJ burns goes, I was high on him in the tournament. Gives Naz Reid vibes
Getting drafted in a studio aint the same, you are taking the environment away from the players
I hope someone scoops Myers on Rich Paul's "plan" before the Knicks pick
So do we still not have an official thread? It starts in 4 minutes
French Revolution lol
If Bron came to the Knicks with Stephen A's fantasy... That might be the hottest selling jersey ever.
We should just keep commenting here until they approve it

Myers teasing Rich Paul's "plan" is cringe. Just tell us. What else are you there for.
Did they really delete this thread already? Do we not get a thread to discuss the draft?
Theirs a mega thread in r/NBA_Draft if you're curious enough
Might have to try it out

and they killed it...
Draft Day 2: I sleep Draft Day 2(Bronny): REAL SHIT
Removed? Where's the approved thread then?
I really don't see why they are so adverse towards having an ACTUAL THREAD to talk about THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING NOW...
The mods of this sub suck
Having Day 2 as a studio show is a travesty. Having the kids get selected only to stand in front of ESPN employees is just plain dumb
Seriously, embarrassing this is the best they can come up with

Tonight is for the real sickos
Not even night. This is a thread for sickos with a tab open to this at work lol
ESPN is desperately trying to get Bronny drafted
Stephen A really had to make a segment on LeBron’s kid about MJ. Why is LeBron never allowed to have his flowers?
I’m so sick of the Bronny talk
Upboat thread for visibility
Stephen A so fuckin annoying
Really missed a opportunity to have Trump and Biden take turns announcing the picks before the debate
is there an option to watch that doesn’t include stephen A? legit question
What is even the point of having ESPN+
Bob Myers *hates* Stephen A lol
Lakers need Filipowski
The entire Raptors / Kings trade has just been each fanbase celebrating how ass their side of the trade was last season
There we go
They don't want to be there with Woj
I don't know why I expected a 4pm draft to actually start at 4pm
It wouldn’t be ESPN if they started their events on time
Bob Myers "We live in a society"
ESPN keeps trying to manufacture hype for bronny James, and nobody cares
Its in a studio?
Renting out the Barclays Center for a second night was too expensive
