The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

Word is that he ripped the fukk outta this workout and Orlando is playing it smart by keeping it low key and not hyping it up to the media. This is one of the guys that they want. It's either him or Malik Monk at the #6 Pick for them.

Hopefully he rises so we cant get em, i want Isaac

I think Markkanen will best be suited for playing the 3 at the next level. Not only short-term but long-term as well.

He'd be food on defense. No way he can keep up with SF's at the next level.

Yeah it doesn't really matter with him right now, he's going to get burned defensively no matter what position he plays.

At least he's shown the ability to be able to guard the perimeter at times.

If he goes to Dallas though I think he'll be fine playing the 4 with Nerlens on the floor.

Going to drop my updated mock after the game, or around that time anyways.

Colangelo is getting antsy I think he's had enough tanking. I could see him moving the pick if the right deal came along

Portland definitely needs to make some moves. I don't really know why they'd want to move up to 3 though.

Gotta be the Suns or the kings..

Dennis will be a top 3-4 guy from this draft.
