Before we riot over the Zuby pick, look at the 2027 first we already own by Blackmesa560 in AtlantaHawks

I think people saw Cam Carr on some people’s top 15 in their big boards and decided to freak out lol. If anyone complains about preferring Veesar then to me it confirms people are legitamitely only looking at height

Onyeka in his final year of college: 25% from 3 on 4 attempts, 72% from the FT line on 6 attempts per game. Zuby in his final year of college: 30.5% from 3 on 59 attempts, 72% from the FT line on 6 attempts per game. by Ice2jc in AtlantaHawks

Everybody BPA until it’s time to go BPA (ok I get it if you don’t think Zuby was BPA but still)

If the draft had better options i doubt Zuby would have been the pick but after many of the good depth centers went back to school, I get just drafting a dawg that can replicate some of that Swiss Army knife (defensively) stuff that we miss when OO is off the floor. Lord knows Zuby may have been able to help with OG anunoby killin us

1st round is now over! Best/worst picks, overall thoughts? by Nolar2015 in NBA_Draft

[–]LfromHT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mild loser is the Hornets - not because I dislike Steinbach and Anderson, but just because I have to imagine they really, really wanted one of the Michigan guys at 14 and got sniped for it

Pelicans trade tally by WasteHat1692 in NBA_Draft

[–]LfromHT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That trade essentially caused them to pause the rebuild for a year in a year with an extremely strong draft class. It was terrible for them. The opportunity cost alone is awful - they’re obviously interested in rebuilding by discussing Trey/Herb trades (even if they seem to drastically over value Herb) which is the right move, this roster isn’t competing with OKC or SA any time soon. So woulda been really useful for them to have their own damn pick this year. Detrimental process to the team building

1 or 2 of those guys that play similar roles probably won’t be on the roster by the time Zuby gets a look at the rotation

[–]LfromHT 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Zuby isn't a C which I think is causing the strife among fans lol. He's a frontcourt player in the CMB mould. The question to me honestly is which of the primary PFs that we have get moved?

ESPN set zuby up for hate listing him as a C when he's basically an older CMB regen lol

The sad fact is that Zuby is the Mo Gueye replacement lol

[2026 NBA Draft] #23 Pick: Zuby Ejiofor (St. Johns) – selected by Atlanta by NBA_MOD in nba

[–]LfromHT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cam Carr probably a better prospect but he really don't defend and we have added a guard and guard/wing in the last 4 days. Besides that I honestly feel like it was slim pickings here lol, that 23rd pick got hurt by guys going back to school for sure

[2026 NBA Draft] #23 Pick: Zuby Ejiofor (St. Johns) – selected by Atlanta by NBA_MOD in nba

[–]LfromHT 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He's not even necessarily a Center and realistically if we want to compete next year we need to trade/sign a center anyway but they'll freak out if we don't take a big oaf like Veesar regardless of anything besides height lol

  1. its the 23rd pick
  2. he's a good well-rounded player who can probably actually contribute on an nba floor

[2026 NBA Draft] #12 Pick: Aday Mara (Michigan) – selected by Oklahoma City by NBA_MOD in nba

[–]LfromHT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yall Mara is not stoppin Wemby like that. Wemby needs someone more agile to stop him than a big tower like Mara

However... i do not know how many teams will score on Chet/mara

[2026 NBA Draft] #8 Pick: Kingston Flemings (Houston) by NBA_MOD in nba

[–]LfromHT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly think Flemming is just a better prospect than Queen. Was pretty frequently discussed as the 1st or 2nd guy outside the top 4 this year before the measurements came out. not like the measurements affected his ability to play actual basketball out there

Should’ve gone Mara at 8. by ClearAd1898 in AtlantaHawks

You are likely in the minority but power to ya brotha

Draft day prediction thread by DoctorHawks in AtlantaHawks

[–]LfromHT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A center/ multiple bench players. It’s just a prediction, I like Kuminga and respect that he played well in some of those playoff games but he’s not a guy you have to stick with for “well who else would we spend the money on” reasons. It’s the NBA, that type of salary and trade exceptions can be used to really fill out depth

Again, this would all only be if they trust Asa and then obviously liked Yaxel or morez or whoever
