Having said that, I do find it amusing that some of the draft twitter folks think they are smarter than people who work for NBA teams.
Then when draft twitter people get hired to go work for teams, they understand how little of the picture they get from the outside.

Just to answer this idea for the draft twitter folks: the goal with the Mock Draft is not what my opinions on these players are. It's what I get from NBA teams.
At some point, I will release the draft guide. It will look different. If you read the link, that is made very clear

I thought I wished the big shots had better boards But it’s a fame game usually, not going against the grain etc. One day niggas gon put how they TRULY feel/think it respect to these things Good thing draft twitter hold it down on their ideas and discussions about these topics

@JaredKotler It's a pretty great place. Glad you got to experience it

Still can’t get over this from last night. By far the best environment I’ve ever seen a game in. This is how college basketball is meant to be played. Tradition filled arenas packed with die hard fans

@AndrewDBailey Got you. Maybe check out co-conspirator 8. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Perry Ellis was at Kansas long enough to make all three of these lists and yet he was snubbed

🔥 All-Decade Squads 🔥 2000s ➡️ 2010s ➡️ 2020s Which decade squad are you rolling with?

Unironically maybe the funniest tweet this account has ever posted
Kansas Men’s Basketball@KUHoops

Me 4 weeks ago: The Club World Cup is a manufactured money grab with no prestige. Nobody cares. It's just self dealing for FIFA and PIF
Me now: CHELSEA ARE WORLD CHAMPIONS RAHHH

@cstonehoops Even better when the two biggest names in NBA FA reporting have him going different places! It's Jake LaRavia-sanity!

No disrespect to Jake LaRavia, but I do not need push notifications about Jake LaRavia

Think @Sam_Vecenie said this in one of his articles leading up to the draft and it's a thing I've come around on as well, but those traits are talents in themselves
𝒜𝓃𝒹𝓇ℯ𝓌 𝒮𝓁𝒶𝓉ℯ𝓇@Andrew__Slater
Something to think about, for those interested in player evaluation or roster construction. Many have fallen prey to the temptation of simply chasing talent, while ignoring the value of winning traits (unselfishness, work ethic, resiliency, team-oriented, competitiveness, etc.)

It's a great night to pretend like every NBA team had a franchise changing day

The idea character will play a big part in the front office decisions of this franchise is deeply funny for all the wrong reasons
Mike Lacett@mikelacett
I’ve seen reports that @hornets ownership is particularly frustrated with losing. My understanding is they’re frustrated with a lot of things. I’m told character will play a big part in who they draft tonight. @NBA
