@deafydeafs If he wasn’t the best playmaker, passer and point guard in the draft, and was just a shooter, people would be drooling over him. But he wants to be a superstar, then no one likes him snd talks about his defense.

The Manager of the Mets should be a born & bred Mets fan because we have an impending sense of doom, where we can make changes before tragedy happens. #LGM

Why he’s the perfect fit for the Nets I really hope we get him
NetsKingdom 👑🗽@NetsKingdomAJ
Darius Acuff shot 50% on 120 catch and shoot attempts Elite 3 point shooter, has the ability to play off the ball if needed
English
@Joe_Martin13 - Pick Acuff at 6 (with Mikel Brown as a backup pick).
- I’d like to see a trade with the OKC Thunder for the 17th pick to select Jayden Quaintance (Top 5 pick if healthy) or Chris Cenac.
Marks needs a second pick in the 1st Round.
English
Planting my flag for the Nets 2026 draft with Darius Acuff (slight preference) and Chris “Mikel” Brown.
Trading up into the top four is SUPER unrealistic, trading down lands you a future mystery pick and a lower ceiling player. Stay pat at 6th and pick one of the two here.
English
@01Starblazer They need a guy who can close deals with top tier free agents. Stearns can’t do it, whiffing on Yammato & Tucker. Just bring Billy Eppler back. He closed Ohtani, Trout, Scherzer, Verlander. Need a guy that knows how to spend money correctly.
English
The Mets need to rebuild. Thanks to Billy Eppler, they have some quality pieces to do just that. What they really need is a quality GM who can add quality veterans to fill out a 40 man roster with depth and fidelity.
English
The Mets couldn’t pay Pete Alonso $30m a year cause they felt he wasn’t worth it. So they paid Bo Bichette $42m instead.
English
@PSLToFlushing @SubwayToShea Holmes turned out great as a starter. Why not start the process with Myers being a starter now?
Why wait to use Myers when the Mets are down 4 runs?
English
The Mets need to promote a young pitcher from Triple-A for the next turn IMO
They are already doing opener into length with Peterson, can’t do that with two spots
Myers and Manaea aren’t SP options to me
Wenninger, Tong (though it’s tough after his last outing) or Thornton
English
@MetsMuse @fangraphs The worst part is they could have used that money this season on Valdez, Bregman, Bellinger, Alonso, & Schwarber - players that made a lot more sense than Bo Bichette.
English
Notable players Bo Bichette makes more than this season:
Wheeler
Judge
Valdez
deGrom
Snell
Cole
Guerrero Jr.
Trout
Bregman
Burnes
Rendon
Lindor
Correa
Arrenado
Bellinger
Seager
Skubal
Machado
Devers
Alonso
Betts
Cease
Schwarber
(etc.)
Ranks 836th in WAR per @fangraphs.
English
@CoreyBCantor @NetsDaily If AJ, Boozer, Peterson, Wilson & Acuff all go top 5, Marks better be at the ready to trade back - Mara & Quaintance are the only ones that interest me.
English
Sounds like a reason he should fall to *checks notes* 6th spot @NetsDaily
Ricky O'Donnell@SBN_Ricky
I'm going through UNC games and only watching Caleb Wilson, and his off-ball defensive awareness is a big issue. Lots of ball watching and missed assignments all over the tape. He can usually fall back on his recovery ability, but there will be a real learning curve in the NBA.
English
@TonyHvacOwner71 @MetsMuse @kranepool OPS isn’t at-bat dependent. The reason Vientos has less at-bats is because he’s a liability in the field.
English
@MetsFanManager @MetsMuse @kranepool Even Atbats , kind of makes your argument stupid , has over 80 AB’s more than Vientos but ok if u say !
English
@CoreyBCantor @ErikSlater_ Tatum? The dude is 6’4. He shit the bed (4-16) against Michigan. He’s not ready.
English
Great. Now another person that we have to consider @ErikSlater_
JPR@Scouting_Col
Brayden Burries is currently fifth on my big board. He’s a no doubt future all star in my mind. There’s no glaring weakness and he very well should’ve won Big 12 POTY over his teammate Jaden Bradley. Closest prospect I’ve seen to Jayson Tatum.
English
@JeriTsaiNets Egor is a shooting guard. He’d excel next to Acuff.
English
You have to combine all of their skills from Egor 3-point shooting Nolan play making Sarafs dribbling then you get Acuff.
Still hope Egor can pan out to be a good player
Vada Fly@Vada_Fly
The Darius Acuff to Brooklyn agenda grows by the day. Idgaf how many Guards we drafted last year none of them can dribble and score with both hands or run a NBA offense. Draft Acuff or Brown. No questions asked.

@MetsFanManager @NYNJHarper @OriginalLadyMet Yamamoto got biggest contract by Mets and went to dodgers with it
English
Mets finally swinging the bats. Ewing, and to some degree, Benge, provided the spark, the energy that was desperately needed and now there seems to be real momentum after sweep of Tigers. Soto showing signs. Always good to have some juice for Subway Series.
English
@StephNoh Bad form limits your ceiling. Google videos of Chris Mullin & Jerry West talking about form.
English
@_k_3424 I like stability, the way the Spurs had it for so long.
Having said that, if Acuff is available and not drafted, fire Marks!
English
@TheHoopHerald AJ is not Cooper Flagg. I almost feel bad that the Wizards will be forced to draft him.
English
People forget that Cooper Flagg reclassed up and used to be in the same class as AJ
English
Was there a worse offseason acquisition in all of baseball than Bo Bichette?
Dudes just been awful
English
@RqgvdL101 @BillyReinhardt Hopefully. Just hope the Nets aren’t turned off by Acuff. The Nets need a dog, who is confident and wants to be a superstar and lead a team.
English
@MetsFanManager @BillyReinhardt He said he rather have a team that he's proud of than a team that wins. But that was years ago. From his ange when Nets lost the lotto *again* I think he's getting tired of losing.
English
I often like to remind people of this. Brooklyn has staff members poached as often as any team.
Sean Marks knows what he’s doing and the Nets’ front office is very well respected around the league, even if there is jealousy from some about Marks being afforded more job security than most in the same position.
zach@zsrozales
@BillyReinhardt I keep hearing how terrible marks is as a gm but somehow people keep hiring guys from his front office...
