I'm not too excited about this years draft from the projections. Let's just say that most of it could be a snooze fest. Hoping that some of our guys can end up being drafted on white friendly teams. Alot of times it's the team you go to more than your talent level as to playing time. So many of our players are caste aside. Will hope for the best. Just wanted to start a thread as the first round of the nba draft is tonight and round 2 is tommorow. I do think that the second round should be more appealing from our perspective.
 
Not only is this a lame draft class, but it seems like all the mocks are almost identical. I wonder if this is a result of AI crowdsourcing opinions until every board looks the same. Every class winds up with sleepers and busts, but no one seems to disagree about the consensus top ten players, practically in order.

Accordingly to the algorithm, we'll get

Aday Mara #11-15
Hannes Steinbach #15-20
Karim Lopez (white-ish Mexican) #15-20
Bennett Stirtz #16-21
Henri Veesaar #27-32

Then Braden Smith, Sergio de Larrrea (Spain), Alex Karaban, Tyler Bilodeau, Richie Saunders, and Nick Martinelli somewhere in the second round. Probably one or two Euros slide in, too.

Good list! It seems to be a down year compared to the last two drafts which I believe we chronicled as being better than average.

There is also a small possibility that we get pleasantly surprised with a few guys moving into the 1st or sliding into the 2nd. Perhaps the GMs value White players a bit more than the journalist DWFs and blacks who produce these mock drafts.
 
Disgusting draft. Nothing but black players and scantily clad, morbidly obese, big wigged, heavily made up, fake nailed and eyelashed black women happy as pigs in ****. It’s a much higher quality of welfare, for sure.

NBA draft is the BET awards. 11/11 perfect draft, so far. And one hideous Jew (Adam silver) smiling and hugging on the best night of his life.
 
The only happier people are the Vietnamese wig store owners who are supplying the hair for the women, and they don’t have to steal it.
 
OKC selects Aday Mara, first Whitey in the draft at number 12. Michigan 7’3” center from Spain. Probably replacing Hartenstein, who will leave for more money than OKC can pay.
 
Charlotte drafts the German from UW Hannes Steinbach, big White center. His dad played with Dirk in Germany.
 
Iowa’s Bennett Stirtz drafted by Memphis and immediately traded to OKC. So, OKC losing Hartenstein and Dort, replacing with Mara and Stirtz. Also, ready to put Topic into the rotation after his nut cancer. If Chet can grow a set, OKC will be a team to watch.

Yes OKC is quickly becoming one the fan favorite teams here at this board. Happy for both of these young guys!

Not that it matters but Hartenstein claims he is biracial mixed black. So technically an upgrade
 
Knicks via a trade with the Lakers draft Spanish guard Sergio De Larrea. The 4th White out of 25 picks, unless you count the Mexican Lopez (I don’t but would root for him as a Caste Buster).

Now the Kings via the Cavs select Alex Karaban the UConn legend.

So to recap the 1st round and 1st day. 5 of 30 picks are White or only 17%.

Two Americans (Stirtz and Karaban), two Spaniards (Mara and De Larrea) and one German (Steinbach).

I'm happy to see a couple more white americans drafted. While it should be alot more it's still better than nothing. I remember before
Tyler Herro it was not common to see many white american born players not be drafted. It was mainly the european guys back then. After
Herro it has slowly changed but we should have way more of our guys drafted. Alot of work to be done as under 20 percent is horrible.
 
Apparently it was 2024 when the NBA decided to hold off on the second round until a second day. I hadn't yet caught on to this scheme!

Hate this pick (although I don't really care about it, as I've never seen a minute of the guy). The Knicks seem to "stash" him and come back later, if that practice is still allowed. De La Larrea is bigger (6'6) that Tyler Kolek, so he may not bump the only other whitey off that roster. He doesn't have a path for minutes at the 2-4 spots (but i'm not a "scout")

Knicks are simply a historically anti-white franchise
 
Bucks draft upsiders after finally trading for some honkeys a few days before. Burries, the SG from Arizona was a decent selection.

Tennessee’s Nate Ament on the other hand. Has all the signs of a BUST. They’re betting on his upside, instead of what he can do on the court. 6’10 and 200lbs. Basically a stretch 4 that only shot 33 percent from 3, 39 percent from the field.

Somehow 13th overall pick. Just not seeing it with that k@lergi kid.
 
I’d like to see Nuggets draft Henri Veesaar with the 35th pick tonight! Adding another talented 7 footer to backup Jokic wouldn’t be a bad move. Plus Veesaar moves well enough you could play him at PF and have him and Jokic on the court at the same time.

Jonas Valanciunas was a bit underwhelming last season for Denver.. looks like he’s off to end his career, playing in his home country of Lithuania.

 
Adam Silver makes me believe in the lizard people conspiracy theory. He could be a dual threat if you catch my drift.
 
Richie Saunders goes to the Memphis Grizzlies as the 2nd pick in the 2nd round.

Then the Chicago Bulls at number 8 of the 2nd round select Branden Smith. A great backup for Josh Giddey
or maybe they move one of them to shooting guard.

Braden was traded to the Indiana Pacers so the local young man gets to stay in state. He’ll be beloved by the fans there and hopefully be given a fair shake.

UCLA forward Tyler Bilodeau goes to the Brooklyn Nets. The other 13 picks of round 2 are black…..Henri Veesaar with a huge fall as I was consistently seeing him mocked in the late 1st. He would obviously be a steal for a smart team right now.

Edit to add: now Tyler Nickel the shooter with size from Vanderbilt / Virginia Tech / UNC is drafted and appears to be traded to the Knicks. Knicks with 2 of 3 White players now.

So recapping the draft.

1st Round
1-12: Aday Mara, Michigan (Spain) to OKC Thunder
1-14: Hannes Steinbach, Washington (Germany) to Charlotte Hornets
1-16: Bennett Stirtz, Iowa to OKC Thunder via trade
1-25: Sergio De Larrea, Spain to Dallas Mavericks via trade
1-29: Alex Karaban, UConn to Sacramento Kings via trade

2nd Round
2-2: Richie Saunders, BYU to Memphis Grizzlies
2-8: Braden Smith, Purdue to Indiana Pacers via trade
2-13: Tyler Bilodeau, UCLA to the Brooklyn Nets
2-17: Tyler Nickel, Vanderbilt to the NY Knicks via trade
2-22: Henri Veesaar, UNC (Estonia) to the Atlanta Hawks via trade
2-25: Nick Martinelli, Northwestern to the LA Clippers via trade
2-26: Vsevolod Ishchenko, Russia to the Dallas Mavericks via trade

5/30 and 7/30 for 12/60 or 20% exactly. Pretty par for the course.

The Knicks were supposed to take Estonian center Henri Veesaar at #31 by lots of nerds.

They traded down to #39 and skipped him again. He ended up at #52.

If you google his name tonight, you see that this guy could've made a collegiate NIL package of about $5.5 million to be one of the best centers amongst the "amateurs."

He won't ever be poor. It's just a big swing of things that for this guy, blew up within 16 months or less.

Miami (OH) guard Peter Suder agrees to a two-way deal with the Los Angeles Lakers
Creighton guard Josh Dix has agreed to a two-way NBA deal with the Oklahoma City Thunder
Michigan State center Carson Cooper will sign a two-way contract with the Memphis Grizzlies

Saint Louis center Robbie Avila agreed to an Exhibit-10 contract with the Los Angeles Lakers

Louisina State guard Max Mackinnon has agreed to an Exhibit 10 deal with the Charlotte Hornets (Australian)

Utah State guard Drake Allen has agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with Detroit Pistons
Nebraska center Rienk Mast has agreed to an Exhibit-10 contract with the Indiana Pacers

An Exhibit 10 contract is a one-year, non-guaranteed NBA minimum-salary deal used primarily for training camps, Summer League, and retaining G-League rights. It includes an optional bonus that incentivizes players to stay with a franchise's developmental affiliate if they do not make the final NBA roster

An NBA two-way contract is a hybrid agreement allowing a player to split their season between an NBA team and its NBA G League affiliate. Each NBA franchise is allotted up to three two-way roster spots, separate from the standard 15-man active roster.

This is a case of either very poor agent advice or he didn't listen to shrewd advice. There is no way an NBA version of Drew Rosenhaus would advice this draft decision he is way too shrewd for this fumble of the financial football...
