I don't think they can trade Noel

Honestly, Sixers are most likely stuck with the #3 and #10 pick. Its more likely they move up from #10 to lower risk than #3 I guess

Tony Rizzo is a clown. He is the talk radio host that was screaming and cheering last year at the draft lottery when the Cavs got the top pick. He is not a reputable news source.

The Cavs are taking Embiid.

Cavs are fukkin fools if they pass on Embiid. They need to keep the 3 spot open for a LeBron return.


PG: Kyrie
SG: ?
SF: LeBron
PF: ?
C: Embiid

How would he be on the Celtics though? I think he's only going to thrive on teams with scoring PGs (Lillard, Irving, Curry etc) where he can be the PG from the 3 or 4.
That was exactly my thinking when I took him at 18. Suns somehow managed to be 2nd worst in team assists last year, plus we've had success with Boris Diaw types in the past running a similar system.

Anyway, with the 27th pick, the Suns draft and stash the surging Kristaps Porzingus :ehh:

Yeah right LeBron's not going back to Cleveland. But they would be foolish to pass up on the only player in this draft that can anchor a defense

That is what I am hoping for.

Maybe after this draft the Cavs and Sixers can start to bring back the East.

I know this draft is loaded at the top, but what are experts saying about the depth of this draft? Will there still be decent talent in the late first early second?

This draft Is about 40 players deep. There will be first round worthy talent in the early 2nd round.

Yeah, this draft is a tone-setter, IMO...like, in ten years I think we'll be looking back on this draft class as one of the greatest in recent memory, and measuring the greatness of other draft classes against IT. It's THAT deep. A whole next generation superstars (post - LeBron/KD) exists in this draft, possibly.

I mean, a player like Walter Tavares is near the END of the second round in most mock drafts, for crying out loud....THAT'S a deep draft class, brehs.

and even if there are no transcendent superstars. I could see atleast about 20 really good NBA players
