@AJ3Jazz I think Philom’s shooting and Fleming defense both standout. What tips it in Fleming’s favor is that he’s often touted as the highest IQ guard in the draft. That and his downhill ability is why I have him over other talent in that range like Acuff, Burris, etc.

Who you got, and WHY?

@MavsFilmRoom I question your film room if you came away with Derozan as AJ's comp.

DP: horrible assist to turnover ratio Boozer: can’t jump over a book AJ: Has the same DBPM as Acuff and is comped to DeRozan Caleb: Can’t shoot threes well Mikel: Has the back of a 55 year old Kingston: Refuses to take threes and is probably 6’2 Acuff: Makes Luka look like prime Scottie Pippen on D Burries: Turns 21 before his NBA debut Wagler: Has the athleticism and strength of a Mavs Film Room intern (I still love this draft class)

@dib1014 @ShamsCharania We don’t have to imagine. NBA champions Jalen Brown and Jayson Tatum were top three picks in consecutive years.

@AnonymousLaptop @ShamsCharania Yeah imagine if Anthony Bennett and Andrew Wiggins were on the same team!

The NBA presented three comprehensive anti-tanking concepts to its Board of Governors on Wednesday, with modifications expected to each before a formal vote in May, per ESPN sources. 1. 18 teams in draft lottery (seeds 7-15 in each conference) – flattened odds, with bottom 10 teams having an 8% chance, the remaining 20% odds distributed in decreasing order for 11 through 18, and and a lottery drawing for all 18 picks. 2) 22 teams in lottery using 2-year record (seeds 7-15, plus the four playoff first round exits in both conferences). Lottery teams would reach a minimum win total floor in each season, such as 25 wins. If a team falls short of the floor, it gets slotted to meet the floor. Top 4 drawn as part of lottery, as is currently. 3) 18 teams in a "5 by 5" lottery – bottom 5 teams have equal odds for the top pick, with lottery formed for picks 1-5. Bottom 5 teams have a floor at 10; those that fall out of top 5 get sorted in a separate drawing.

@KyleTibbitts Wow to every complaint in this thread. I mean, trust me we loved it more before each of you moved here, but go ahead and keep complaining about our home.

When I moved to Utah in 2021 I thought it was a pretty safe red state. Turns out it’s battleground of political stupidity.

@OldUncleEllis @Idaheaux Me weirder than dragging out the eeee in wheel

@Idaheaux Isn’t it weirder to enunciate the T in mountain?

Things I hate about Utah: - the I-15 - anyone who works in real estate - anyone in charge of zoning - hustlebro sales culture - they way they pronounce words like “feel” or “wheel” - Ken Garff billboards - the I-15

Friends: I have an interview tomorrow. It’s a career pivot since my vision prevents me from doing what I’ve spent the last 30 years doing. Would you mind praying for me? I’m not a person who thinks quickly on my feet when it’s something new. Thank you so much.

@CBBheadquarters @sadhogfan @Breyden_Clark1 @Sararazorback20 @DallasHogFan @WooPig83 @crypto_woopig @WooPigSumo @GoHogs78 @MsTeetsie @HonestHogFan Yes, but they watch both sides of the ball.

Bleacher Report released a mock draft: Darius Acuff Jr. is the #5 Make it make sense. Do the people making the mocks at bleacher report watch basketball?

@WorldWideWob Fine incoming

@kelandren3 @TimelessTrvlr Ya it probably could’ve had me for lunch. 😂 It was on the Clark Fork river just east of Missoula.

@AnonymousLaptop @TimelessTrvlr And that eagle is huge!!!

Missoula, Montana is the kind of place where people float the river after work, hike before dinner, and let the mountains set the pace instead of the market.

@TimelessTrvlr @kelandren3 Check out this clip I took of a Golden Eagle while out in the water!

@j_divis New York, New York South with 6 months on the island of Bermuda.

Always love to see where others served their missions. Post below when and where you served. I served from 2002-2004 in the Caracas Venezuela Mission.

@FDSportsbook Closer comp is Starbury

Is Darius Acuff Jr. the next Allen Iverson? 😳

@NauvooSpice Perfect Time Lyrics We Shot The Moon youtu.be/cc6-_zI6fHY?si… via @YouTube

I’m curious to the married friends I have on here. What was your wedding song?

@Sleeper_Hoops False. But he will be fun to watch. Dude has so much Starbury in him.

TRUE OR FALSE — Darius Acuff has the potential to be a top-10 NBA player

@tiffanee_dawn Bypass the facility, and send people straight home.

Sooooo no water for anyone being kept there? That doesn’t seem very nice.

@Underdog @UnderdogNBA As a Jazz fan I'd be disappointed to pick 5, but then happy if Wilson fell to us.

2026 NBA Lottery Mock Draft

@Sleeper_Hoops @SleeperHawks @SleeperHeat @SleeperWizards @SleeperPacers @SleeperNets @SleeperMaverick @SleeperSacKings @SleeperBucksNBA @SleeperJazz @SleeperMemphis This would be laughable if it plays out.

SPINNING THE NBA DRAFT LOTTERY EVERY DAY UNTIL DRAFT DAY: DAY ONE: 1. Darryn Peterson — Hawks 2. Cam Boozer — Heat 3. AJ Dybansta — Pacers 4. Caleb Wilson — Mavericks 5. Kingston Flemings — Wizards 6. Keaton Wagler — Nets 7. Darius Acuff — Kings 8. Mikel Brown Jr — Jazz 9. Nate Ament — Grizzlies 10. Labaron Philon — Bucks

@FredipusRex @StatisticUrban Chic fila and raisin canes did actually base it off fry sauce but tweaked it to be different. I prefer the original, better theirs aren’t bad.

@StatisticUrban Fry sauce is ubiquitous thruout the US. Raisin’ Canes, Chick-Fil-A and every mom and pop shop around have some form of it. Add pickle relish and you have Big Mac sauce. Laughable to think it’s unpopular anywhere - it’s just not always called “fry sauce” in the rest of the US

In the Pacific Northwest and Utah, there's a popular condiment called "fry sauce" that seemingly none of the rest of the country likes. It's apparently made from a base of mayonnaise and ketchup, and various seasonings like pepper and garlic powder are added.
