Just as last year - the place for comments on the actual draft as it happens.

Good luck.

I expect crazy trades this evening.

One can only hope. They're hell of fun.

Russell to the Lakers shakes things up. Let's see what Boston and Philly will do.

Does Okafor get passed over by Philadelphia as well

Post #6 » by **DelaneyRudd** » Thu Jun 25, 2015 11:49 pm

If Philly passes on Okafor things get nutty.

Good question. Kinda screws the Sixers. Maybe they trade with Boston? Philly fans on the board are bummed.

Hezonja goes 5th to Orlando. Bummer. Where are the trades?

Kristaps Porzingas to the Knicks ...I think he'll be a star ,the way he shoots

I highly doubt that the Knicks keep Porzingis. Someone is probably trading for him- the Jazz?

Some of the trades can't happen until the pick is actually made, is my understanding, to avoid trading picks in back to back years. Trades will probably come up as the draft develops.

Yeah, it's kinda weird. Melo takes most of the minutes there on Krispy Pringles' spot.

SoCalJazzFan · Post #13 » by **SoCalJazzFan** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 12:10 am

Still a possibility that the Magic end up with Pringles and another team with Hezonja.

Like Mario on the Magic. I think he will be a star for them.

Wow, WCS is going 6th to Sacramento. Damn. Are they preparing for a Cousins trade? Don't know if they fit together.

SoCalJazzFan · Post #16 » by **SoCalJazzFan** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 12:16 am

I'm not watching this live as I am at work, I wonder if the rumor of the Kings taking WCS with their #6, and then Russell with the #2 for Boogie and whatever else they finally agreed upon will actually happen.

Andy Katz and Chris Broussard usually have some info about that by now.

Funny thing....I saw that Detroit took Stanley Johnson on NBA Draft.net before it was announced on TV.

Espn has list of " best next player available "........Booker is 12th best.

Kaminsky to Charlotte.

Post #20 » by **Inigo Montoya** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 12:39 am

Kaminsky to the Hornets has to be part of a trade, otherwise it's just a weird pick.
