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.
Tatum I don't think falls that far (though I don't think highly of him)

The Knicks have to decide whether Monk could be their PG because unless the Knicks are all-in on Frank, none of the players available have the size Phil wants from PG.

The Kings at 10 is a wild card, but I think they reach at 5 to get the guy they really want so if someone slips to them at 10, they're doing cartwheels. Also, PG workouts will probably be the most intense since 2009.

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.

He can always test the open market and see what his value is. He might not like what other GM's have to say, though.

He's getting the max from Ainge

Now whether he actually plays out that contract is another story, but like I said in another thread, there's no way the front office can spin to the fans letting him walk after the success he's brought :manny:

He's getting that max after all he's done this season. That 53 point game iced it.

Rozier is gone and they'll let Bradley walk. Fultz will come off the bench in year one.

Why though? He has no leverage and they already have his replacement, if they do sign Hayward then the team moving forward would be Fultz, Brown, Hayward.

They can play together, but eventually Brown is going to start at the 2, and you said they will get Hayward this summe right?

Breh, who giving 4-5 year maxes to players with no leverage? I damn sure ain't giving a max to a 5'9 PG when I just drafted a 6'5 combo guard who could be better than him within the life of his contract.

If Hayward comes, it's to play with IT. Not an unproven 19 year old, regardless of what his potential may be.

Don't get how so many people have the Sixers taking Monk over Jackson

In a league like the NBA unless you're on on the verge of contention always take bpa over need

Jackson is such a superior player to Monk u take him and figure it out later

This post says: I have never watched NBA basketball before. But I play a lot of video games!


Personally, I'm heated Jeanne went to the combine and balled out in 5-on-5... really wanted him in the second. Now way he drops there now.
Havent played video games since I was a teen bruh and I'm 35 now. Why you think everyone and their mama is saying Toronto should let Kyle go? Cause his game is not going to age well and he is not worth the max that's why. And if those young cats cant win another 12 games next year in a best case scenario of Embid and Simmons playing 75 plus games then your teams future probably isn't as bright as you think it is anyway.
