My understanding is that Landry has been invited to the Draft and will be there in New York on Thursday night. That is a positive sign that the NBA believes he has a chance to go in the first round.

Guess LS being in the draft crowd rather than the green room is his own decision?

I didn't get that impression from the article. All it really said was that he was attending in the audience, not in the green room. It didn't mention anything else, which does not imply that he was invited to the green room and preferred the audience.

"That's why deciding to attend the 2018 NBA draft in person - not in the green room with some of the more well-known names but in the audience - was seemingly a no-brainer for the sleeper who may go in the late first round, the second … or not at all."
I'll go with the words "deciding" and "no-brainer" as a pretty clear indication that he was given a choice and chose one over the other, Alex. Final answer.

Ohhhh. Sorry. And you made it a true daily double and lost everything.
The decision was whether to attend or not. It was a no-brainer to attend. Celebrate with his mom. Give her that moment of seeing him on stage with the commissioner.
Next category.. Please.

SHOCKvalue - there's just no chance he was invited to the green room. It's invitation only for the guys they think are going to go in the lottery. It's widely publicized who is invited because everyone who gets invited wants everyone else to know they were invited: https://www.zagsblog.com/2018/06/19/...tes-for-draft/
But, grammatically, I think the sentence doesn't quite suggest he was invited to the green room, anyway. While it's certainly slightly ambiguous, remove the portion of the sentence separated by the dashes, and the sentence reads that his decision to attend in person was a no-brainer. NOT that his decision to pick the audience over the green room was a no-brainer. That's just superfluous information as to where he will specifically be sitting.

Hopefully he gets drafted. The shock of not being drafted would send him to the brown room ...A.K.A toilet

Good call, SweetShocker. Channeling your inner troll.
Well done. Now you just need the “Glad I was wrong” post.

A talented and hard working kid who busted his ass to get where he is. Should NBA teams pass on him because he went to Maryland? Your perspective sucks.Last edited by Downtown Shocker Brown; June 22, 2018, 12:03 AM.
