Re: 2015 NBA Draft.
I would love to see the Cavs get WCS and Wayne Selden or Marc Garcia if they get love. WCS finally gives them a Center of the future and Garcia could be a Manu clone. Selden would be a better fit though

Re: 2015 NBA Draft.
I was laughed at when I said I'd take Chris Walker at 20 before he pulled out of the draft. Let's see who has the final laugh when he's a top 10 pick and a beast in the NBA.

Karl Towns is the one prospect that excites me ( even though he's playing for Kentucky).
His skillset is amazing.

Yeah, I have Towns on top of my list. I hope my Sixers get him.

Three reasons:
1.) acquire the best talent possible until you settle on your core.
2.) I want to see if Noel has enough speed to guard opposing SFs (unlikely but there might have some chance)
3.) there 96 minutes at the PF/C positions combined. All three of them can get 32mpg mpg each.

fair enough and even sensible enough considering the talent available in this draft in some of the positions u guys are weaker in.
i'll allow it.

Just play Noel at point guard and draft the best center available in the next three drafts.

Let's see what the Love to Cleveland trade does for Philly. If Philly gets lucky, they may get a good pick where they can get two excellent prospects. If that happens, then Thon Maker isn't a possibility. Your core will be built, rock solid.

Draft reform! Draft reform!
But yeah, I think it would be tough to get into a very good position in the draft in 2016. I think Biid-Noel-MCW-2015 lotto could possibly improve the sixers win-ability.

Re: 2015 NBA Draft.
Philly having MCW by 2016 isn't likely, well it's at least something they probably don't want as a club as they have been trying to trade him for a while. If Philly did think Towns Jr was the best player in the draft, they should absolutely take him despite overcrowding for position. If your team is one of the worst teams in the draft, then you have to take the best player available as you are likely trying to establish a core.
I think Mudiay, Johnson and Towns Jr all have legit star potential, and that is the draft order I'd go with that draft. Okafur is #4, but Okafur doesn't feel like he can be a real star, feels like the type of guy who might make an all-star team, could be a good 3rd option on a good team if things pan out.
