The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

They got that kid Chris McCullough in the trade but he isn't anything special...

Y'all need to keep developing him son has a lot of potential, his ACL tear at Syracuse has really stunted his development.

 

[Brozay]

It was. They had two first rounders. It didn't pay off in hindsight but it was worth it to see if it could work.

No hindsight needed, it wasn't going to pay off

@str8up



They waking up..crazy how I just wrote about him too..

Bulls fit? Right in our range I assume?

D-Wade is picking up his player option

That's the worst feeling as a fan. That was me pre-Kupchak firing.

He's going to play in summer league but I'm not high on him

I don't see how he doesn't, otherwise he's losing at least ten million

Denver was the other team all in on him last season but it's not worth it anymore considering he don't want to practice and only plays 50-60 games a year

Anyone scouting guys in the 2nd round? Who'd be good for the Wiz's crappy bench?

At that spot you're looking at someone like Nigel Williams-Goss or maybe Justin Tuoyo. Someone else is bound to fall though, you can never tell.

Depends on what you're hoping for.

Dorsey could potentially provide a scorer off the bench. He does not do a lot else, but he DOES know how to shoot in the spot up, or coming off screens and set his feet.

Somebody like Thornwell would provide some defense, and some offensive flexibility. Probably can't break guys down off the dribble, and is a bit of a positional tweener, but he knows where to be on the floor, and he takes advantage of any physical mismatches, plus he can shoot.

PJ Dozier looks like he was built in a lab, but plays like he just came out of the test tube. If you just get him out on the run, let him finish in transition, and give him some defensive fundamentals, he could be a great second team player.

Personally I like Alpha Kaba as a 2nd round flier on a big.

And I really like Frank Mason as a backup PG.

A lot of Wiz fans want Mason

Mason would be good too. I figured they could use a guy like Tuoyo to provide some much needed rim protection.

I don't think Thornwell or Dozier will be there at that spot. But like I said, someone could fall, and it could be one of them.

I actually want the Pacers to pick up Dozier at 47 if he's there. Let him come in and run the point with Myles.

 

[str8up]

He should be focusing on his post moves a little more than the 3pt shot but cool interview. His shooting form doesn't look too bad either.

I'm 99% sure Denvers out on wade if he were to opt out. Last offseason they were desperate for a star and the 2 was a little shaky. Now they know Jokic is a star, Gary Harris made a big jump, and Murray needs minutes.
