The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

[ikbm]

This is the nightmare scenario for the Knicks.

I would really prefer to see Monk's name called in the first 7 picks.

the frenchmens gonna get boo'd so hard if we took him over the american talent in monk

I actually think they need shooting badly.

Frank's obviously not the shooter or athlete that Monk is but his 3pt shot is coming along nicely.

I don't think Minnesota should look for shooting that high in the draft. Taking Monk that high makes sense for a team like Philly.

Just checking.

I'm just trying not to infer my opinion on that situation unless really requested

You on some real lawyer shyt when it comes to the Wolves now.

This interview has a weird vibe to it. Makes me feel nervous about DSJ going forward.

Curious what sort of vibe were you picking up? Saw this yesterday and it looked like a standard interview.

Makes sense, after Jabari got hurt there were reports of Hammond talking to Kidd, because Thon got a DNP even after Jabari went down.

With the 3rd pick in the 2017 NBA draft the Philadelphia 76ers select

The top half of his form looks a lot better now. I don't think this really affects his stock at all though.

Philly sure does love these empty gym all-star videos tho, so who knows.

Yeah he shot well from three this season so I wasnt surprised about this. Now when he drops a video finishing against athletic defenders in the paint...I'll be intrigued

 

[Poitier]

Tatum shot ok from 3.

I actually think his ceiling comes down to his shooting versatility, specifically off-ball. If he can shoot off screens, hand offs, pin downs, in transition, etc then it makes it easier to mesh him with a roster.

 

[I AM WARHOL]

Tatum still looking stiff imo

They boo'd Porzingis and wanted Justise Winslow. :toosmart:

Spoiler

That being said, I don't think Monk is going to be bad. I think he could be very good. But he's small, doesn't work through contact, and has little baby arms.

yeah but not everyone can handle hate from the jump

 

[Loose]

I wish we blew it up and tanked

 

[Poitier]

If someone told me the future and said Jayson Tatum would shoot over 40 % from 3 for his NBA career then I'd probably take him 3rd. But, I don't expect that at all lol.

 

[Wargames]

Has DS Jr practiced for Philly yet?
