The Official 2014 NBA Draft Talk Thread

[Malta]

The Magic can be on a big come up if they draft right, nice young core of OladiGOAT, and Vucci Mane, Afflalo still playing at a high level too

They're in a weird spot too though, cause Harris looks like he could be a 20ppg scorer in the future, they have some talented young wings, so who do they draft?

Maybe they can trade Harkless & Harris for a PG, that would make taking Parker or Wiggins that much easier.

I was thinking they take Exum or Embid, Embid on that squad can set the front court for years, but yeah man you're right, there is so many directions that team can go, not sure who they get with their early teen pick

Exum would probably be the best choice for them

He could still run PG, and Oladipo could defend the PG's he's not capable of checking. Great choice breh, maybe reach on Clint Capella with the 2nd pick.

I need to follow Clint Capella to see how his game is like, I'm a South Fl native but I'm rooting for Orlando to get that top pick Orlando will be a winner if they get a top 4 pick

Capela is the classic project shot blocking big that happens to be abnormally athletic and could be a bust, but he's got length 6'11" in shoes, 7'4.5" wingspan.

They need a PF, but I just checked their cap situation and they have enough room to make a run at Greg Monroe, so who knows what they do with that 2nd pick

The Magic must have some shytty owners, not sure why Orlando isn't a hot spot for free agents, good weather, and 3 hours from Miami. if the Magic get Exum, do you think they keep Afflalo still? Or go full rebuild mode with nothing but young talent?

If they got Exum I'd keep Afflalo around for another year, he's a solid pro and honestly I think Exum is going to have some trouble adjusting. You don't go from playing against Australians in an HS league to being in the NBA and not have some issues. He'd be a good vet to have around Exum considering how much work he puts in.

They been in full rebuild with Afflalo, no reason to get rid of him unless you can get back a pick or an asset.

Harris if he's there or even Stauskas. They don't have a pure SG other than Dipo.

Makes sense, plus i'm sure they'll be in the draft again next year, see you in the Draft lottery breh

Turns out Exum isnt all that athletic if he cant shoot either how far does he drop?

Eh, they're better off just keeping Afflalo over drafting a young player that is just going to be Oladipo's backup for the next 5 years.

Doesn't have a high vertical?

You really can't measure someone's first step in the combine setting.

 

[Dayco23]

Cavs better not pick McDermont

Chadfordinsider 15m
Dante Exum with a 31.5 standing vertical and a 34.5 inch max vert. Good, but not elite.

 

[FreedS[ohh]lave]

Cavs better not pick McDermont

I think thats actually a good fit for him the Cavs need more skilled players who can actually shoot and put the ball in the basket
