Bit of a momentum shift to end the half.

Incredible shot.  How many non NBA guys could hit that in an open gym in 50 tries?

Good coaching move by Malone having Jokic taking the ball full-court vs Golbert.  Rudy is getting absolutely shredded.

who does Atlanta take for #1 pick?

  I love that Alex sarr, but fellow Frenchman zach risacher 6'8" 19 year old looks tempting as well.
Rob dillingham and reed Shepard are only 6'3"   I'd rather have the taller sharp shooter of the 3, but ya can't pass up the big fella.

I think he'll be a productive pro cause his shooting will translate, but I can't process Sheppard as a top 5 pick, much less top 3.  Feels like a better version of Jimmer Fredette who was way over drafted.  He'll also be 20 by the draft so its not like he's an 18 year old freshman.

That Edwards guy is pretty good.  It would be nice if he got some help.

I know plenty of players have their heights exaggerated but given the absurdity around Bronny’s draft stock, this is particularly amusing…

A 2 guard under 6’2 who can’t shoot and had a mediocre freshman year and recent health issues.  But sure, def still a 1st round prospect, cause he’s an “elite” defender

Why is this a competitive game?  I can't figure out the Celtics.
