Judah Mintz to test NBA Draft waters

[rrlbees]

I hope that is true but I worry about what dad thinks. And I wonder how you would know that? This group has been very tight lipped about this.

My lips are sealed

 

[UpstateSM]

It’s 100% on Judah

That would be good news, I’d imagine

 

[DoctorBombay]

Of course. It’s silly to think that they don’t. To each other? I have no idea.

Once more for the cheap seats...

 

[Orangezoo]

So may 31 at 1157?

 

[Ragman2000]

This is a post of the year candidate. Well done sir.

You want me to post a link showing the correlation between career success and draft position? I'll happily do so. But I couldn't imagine anyone with the most elementary understanding of the NBA needing such a link. I thought it would be insulting to post one. But if this is news to you, I'll help you out and post one.

It’s just that you said you were telling us about two players… and then you didn’t. And then you cited “data” that you didn’t actually cite. I guess we could just take your word for it.

I hope that if Judah goes pro he is ready mentally. The G league isn't going to be anything like college. I worry that he might not be prepared for the enormous differences between being a star on a huge stage vs just another project grinding for a shot in the shadows.

"It’s just that you said you were telling us about two players… and then you didn’t."

I did in the next two sentences that immediately followed. The sentences that start with, "One," and then, "The other." Not sure how I could have made that clearer.

"And then you cited “data” that you didn’t actually cite."

I gave three links filled with data. But yes, I didn't originally cite the data that higher draft picks have greater success and more chances/opportunities in the NBA. I found it hard to believe anyone on a basketball message board would need that explained to them. I apologize for overestimating you.

"I guess we could just take your word for it."

Or you could read the links provided. Or just use your head.

If it’s about money, isn’t it conceivable he could make more money via NIL in college vs grinding away in g league (at least in next year). If he hates college, then so be it. Many of us are looking at this though our personal lens Knowing what we know now. Would I love to extend college and delay working another year. Hell ya! Being king of campus and laying pipe like a steam fitter.…Sounds like heaven.

I think the point was, what are the names of the players.

Unfortunately, getting your honorary plumbing license is only one part of college. There's another part of it and it's not for everyone.

It’s not about money for Mintz.

Professional pipe laying is much better with choices of multiple pipes simultaneously fitted in multiple cities, college town pipe fitting can be limited somewhat then you still have to make it to Sociology 101 at 7:45am after the first pipe.

Not to mention, the movie was pretty darn good as well. Not the 90s one of course...

I'm sure Judah is laying plenty of Pipe all around Syracuse.

We’ve hit the double entendres part of our waiting process.

 

[atlanticuse]

anyone actually do an analysis of career-success-by-draft-pick (i.e. number of years, games/year, career stats, earnings, etc.)?

Basketball Reference has the data.. I'm just too lazy or dumb to do something with it (see: my failed normal curve for age of predicted picks):
