The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

someone has to trade up though. I'm not dismissing it, but it has to be worthwhile.

I could see Orlando if they fall in love with one of Jackson/Tatum and think they won't be there at 5

 

[Swagnificent]

Only 2 potential STARS in this draft.

1. Lonzo Ball
2. Jayson Tatum

The rest of this draft is role players and scrubs.

I feel like someone punched me in my stomach. We better take Josh at #3. I don't give a fukk about shooting. If these niccas reach for Monk...I might check out.

Pick Jackson or trade some of these future assets to get #1. This was a terrible night.

You just like Tatum cuz all he does is iso

 

[Swagnificent]

Never mind.

My prediction is:

Celtics-Fultz
Lakers-Ball
Sixers-Jackson
Suns-Tatum
Kings-Fox
Magic-Isaac
Twolves-Monk
Knicks- Frank
Mavs- DSJ

If the Sixers are smart they'll pick Tatum #3.

He's the only guy other than Ball with star potential.

Word is that Philly really likes what Isaac can bring to them, but I also assume that was if they had 2 picks.

Issac doesn't help this year though. He'll be behind Saric and there is a good chance he'll spend a lot of time in Deleware.

Only way to tell if a nikka can play or not.

 

[tremonthustler1]

If there's a way to round up all the Coli OG's and experts and break down this draft at some point that would be great

Then DSJ should be your #1

 

[Kang Deezy]

The Boston Celtics select markelle fultz with the number one pick

that might not hurt them necessarily if they're active in free agency.

With Sacramento at 5, Smith and Ntilikina become major wildcards, not to tip my hand a bit, but Fox is definitely in play at #4 simply because the Suns have an obsession with Kentucky.

 

[Malta]

There goes Isaiah Thomas chance at a max contract.

I'm curious as to what will happen at 10. Do the Kings take Tatum in hopes that DSJ falls to 10 (or Ntilikina if NYK goes Smith)?

If they go Fox first I could see Justin Jackson rising, even though I'm not a huge fan.

Isaiah will be taken care of.

He's a sixth man on a championship team

He can play with fultz easily tho and the Celtics like multiple ball handlers

There's no reason at all to give him a max, whether you take care of him or not, he wanted that 5 year 200 milly, that shyt just vanished and there's no way he'd be happy about coming off the bench for a 21-22 year old Fultz.
