The Official 2014 NBA Draft Talk Thread

19 year olds usually do.

He ain't 19 til September

It happens every year. It's already pretty much happened to Randle already, going into the season it was Wiggins/Parker/Randle as the top 3. It happened to Noel last year, he was pretty much a lock to go number one and ended up going 6th.

I can pretty much guarantee you that one of Wiggins/Parker/Embiid/Exum will make it to 6 or 7. It's looking like it's going to be Exum. In these type of scenarios players like this, a top player only wants to work out for top 2 or 3 teams usually so when he unexpectedly slips, teams aren't prepared for it and already have their sights set on somebody else and are way too afraid to make a last minute panic decision.

I know the Celtics and Lakers have done their research on Exum (without getting a visit) but I don't think Utah would take him for a bunch of reasons.

I hoping Ainge falls in love with Gordon

Apparently he has according to Chad Ford and all the Boston media people.

This Exum Hate

I'd take Smart over Vonleh every day, twice on sunday.

If Wiggins falls to 3, Sixers try to move up from 10 with Thad Young to take Randle/Vonleh/Gordon right?

You and @tremonthustler1 really don't like Noah

Probably, but they should be able to get one of those three at 10 without giving up Young. But they'd probably give up Young anyways just to get out of his salary. Randle seemed most likely to be there at 10, but from what I've read he had a really good workout with the Lakers so that may have changed.

It's unfair.

We rarely miss.

Do teams really like Thaddeus Young like that?

I wouldn't pass on a guy like Vonleh for that trade...........

I would too. I'm pretty sure this is the top 6 in the draft barring any major trades. Smart and Exum is interchangable, just know that Orlando has had their eyes on Smart for a long time.

1. Embiid
2. Parker
3. Wiggins
4. Smart
5. Vonleh
6. Exum

Then it gets tricky

 

[kash10003]

I know everyone has Utah going Forward, but aren't they stacked in their front court

 

[Dwight Howard]

[tremonthustler1]

He didnt shoot that well from the outside in college though right? unles they think its Beal type situation

I know everyone has Utah going Forward, but aren't they stacked in their front court

They may not wanna pay Kanter

That scares me and what I been thinking. But like you said things rarely go according to mock.
