2019 NBA Draft Thread

Recommended Posts

This might be one of the worst public relation’s disasters in the history of sports. Nike shoes now look unsafe, as displayed by one of the best athletes, on one of the best teams, on one of the biggest stages in basketball.

Cam Reddish is so bad. 

Forces up an unnecessary desperation 3 with 7 left on the shot clock, doesn’t get back and his man leaks out for a layup (which he blew), then Reddish gets the board and immediately throws a bad pass for a turnover that led to a buzzer beating dunk. Good job dude. 

    And this is the last second i watched. Poor Zion, hope he is ok.

Deandre Hunter looked really really good today. He’s got a classic “better as a pro” vibe to his game. He fits our front office’s type with length, athleticism, and defense. Has a smoothness about him. He doesn’t really fill a need for us, but would probably be best available if he’s on the board when we’re picking. 

Im not a Virginia fan.

hopefully this enables us to become the team that seldom misses on draft picks

Today, STATS, the worldwide leader in sports data and intelligence, and the Orlando Magic announced an exclusive deal that secures the Magic as the only NBA team with access to AutoSTATS, a revolutionary new artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

The Magic will use tracking data produced by AutoSTATS to analyze collegiate players and improve evaluation and decisions for the NBA draft. AutoSTATS delivers comprehensive player-tracking data directly from video through patented AI and computer vision technology. The new technology gives the Magic exclusive access to the college tracking data currently unavailable at this scale due to the scarce use of in-venue tracking systems.

“When we saw the power of AutoSTATS, we were immediately drawn to the benefits this data can provide in our draft decision making process,” said Jeff Weltman, President of Basketball Operations for the Orlando Magic. “Now, instead of using data from just a handful of games, we will be able to make our draft decisions with data from every collegiate game a potential draft pick has played.”

The first-of-its-kind technology in sports, AutoSTATS is the result of years of research and development from STATS’ award-winning AI team. AutoSTATS data quality has matched in-venue hardware systems and eliminates the need for hardware in all stadiums used for regular season and post-season tournaments.

“Collecting data through broadcast is the future of tracking and we couldn’t be more thrilled to launch our technology through this partnership with an innovative team like the Magic,” said Steve Xeller, Chief Revenue Officer at STATS. “With AutoSTATS, the Magic have exclusive access to the most college basketball tracking data in the world. This information can then be applied to their proprietary models to improve player evaluation and development. This technology unlocks huge potential for the Magic, college teams and the broadcast media who cover them.”

I can definitely get behind this. The more teams use analytics, the better the advantage going forward when evaluating talent, whilst building a team that can win for a decade.
