Ayton isn't nearly the physical beast he's hyped as.

Have gotten a chance to watch Sexton a lot, would be fine with him at 9, fit be damned. He can create, has a determination about him.

Nope. It really doesn't show up in games unless he has a runway.

Draft Jeremy Harris 8th

Ayton goes down with a whimper. Can't wait for the quotes on Ayton from NBA scouts after this stinker!

TheSuzerain · Post #1766 » by **TheSuzerain** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 3:41 am

lol Harris is styling on Ayton. Directly on him.

I think Marc Gasol could push for Luka #1 overall and I don't think that would be a mistake. He has that pull in Memphis.

No Leonard means a New Orleans win...

Spurs got the win! (and Denver and Utah ... Pels just a half game from 8th seed, 1.5 from lotto pick)

I've had Ayton #1 all season, but no two ways about it, very disappointing showing for him today.

One game doesn't change much for me. Is Trae Young top 5 again because he had a good final game?

Trae Young isn't good. He might drop to us at 9 although I'm sure a small-market team will take him because of his media hype.

Even the top prospects have question marks. Reason why I don't understand all the crying when this team wins.

The best player in last years draft was drafted 11th overall. The Lakers had three straight drafts selecting 2nd overall and they're hoping PG13, or LBJ saves them(they won't).

The Bulls can still land a good player even at 9th overall if the coaches/scouts do their homework.

Who do we take at this point? We are pretty much locked into 9... I'm looking at Carter, Sexton or MILES Bridges as the only real options left on the board. I think we have to go BOOM or BUST and pick Miles.

The west is a tight race. They have the Rockets next, then the Celtics.

There is still hope for that pick.

Trae Young was never not top 5.

I would be ecstatic with Ball and Kuzma over what we have

I hope you don't actually believe that Mitchell will be the best player in this draft three years from now. I sure as Hell don't. He had an an extra year of experience on most these guys.

You'd take Kuzma over Lauri?

Ball? we can just sign Rondo again in the off season.

Trae Young was never not top 5.

He isn't top 5 right now and I don't see him going top 5. Doesn't matter for the Bulls though as there almost zero chance to drops to #9.

I would not trade Lauri for Kuzma. Ball I don't know. He sucked early, but is looking good now.
