Official June 20th 2019 Draft Thread

[dean456]

If we draft him I'll be rooting for him. But I really hope Langford can shoot the 3 ball. Don't want to draft someone who's going to have to play behind Richardson/Waiters until Waiters is moved/traded because he can't stretch the floor.

If he shoots below 30% from 3 in his rookie season you won't hear the end of it on here. It will be Winslow all over again.

Oh, that would make me so happy

Hate the idea of Coby as a lotto pick and Charlotte is a team with zero to no draft needs, so they're a large threat to steal someone from us

Really? Interested to hear why you don't like Coby?

And also, agree that Charlotte could take any player in the draft and it be okay.

To save some typing, went over that with Chalms the other day

Why do you dislike white, bish?

Not very athletic/streaky shooter/barely got to the line/not an NBA level PG

Can't think of anything he does well enough to say he could do this or that on the next level. Don't see him as a starting level guard.

I was actually one of the only Coby fans around at the beginning of the year, but only as a late first/early second when he wasn't on anyone's board. Hasn't done enough to be top 20 pick

Dom, with similar sentiments earlier

Players I'm "low" on in most mocks:

RJ-has never been a super efficient player. For a guy getting so much love, he should be. Not a guy I'd pass on, but not "special" either.
Culver-dude was effectively wrecked in the championship game by the older than dirt, probably just a role player De'Andre Hunter. Seems stupid cocky when I've heard him refer to himself and his talent level.
Cam-is he a worse finisher than early career Winslow? Yes. It's crazy really. He has the most natural skill of any one in this draft. If he wasn't the most inefficient player of all time, he'd be pretty sensational.
Sekou-what has he done? Lose weight? Have one good game overseas? Such a weird prospect. Maybe he can be the next Dragan Bender.
Jack's son Hayes-He's tall and athletic and convert close to the rim...would not take him over Goga or Bruno. No way.
Coby-his game was fun to watch sometimes in college, but that lack of structure and inconsistency will not fly in the league. What did he do to impact games when not on a hot streak? I can't recall.

I'm a Coby fan, as a potential bench player if he can learn to shoot with more consistency, but not as a lotto pick

Interesting, as I haven't seen many people dislike him. Seems to me like he could even be an effective off-ball guard. I thought if he slipped that a lineup of

Winslow
White
Richardson
Olynyk
Bam

could be a good young lineup to watch.

I don't think he's slipping though.

Those ppl who downed Winslow were always wrong and didn't deserve to be taken seriously. Still don't.

In a perfect world, we draft Romeo at #13 and then trade back into the teens (maybe with Detriot at #15 or Indiana #18 for Dragic) for PJ. I would love it we came away with a SG & PF in this draft.

Man I want Romeo. But this feels like a smokescreen. Similar to the TJ Leaf one from a few years ago.

A lot of ppl can't stomach him for those same reasons. White's not very good off the ball, not sure what he's good at tbh

And man, regardless of White, I don't want to watch another season of Rich starting at the 3.

Just displays how far behind we are from the rest of the league that are searching for versatile wings with optimal length; starting an SF who can barely scratch the surface of 4 RPG(Wiggins gets mocked to death for his career 4.3 boards for comparison) or create on offense

As long as we and/or the media don't hype romeo as next wade, it should be ok. Too much hyping hyping of winslow as the next kawhi/pg at draft time when it didn't even make sense

Winslow is pretty much our 3 though, right? At least defensively

Nah we should be ok with the hype comparisons. He's been going under the radar for most of draft season. KPJ on the other hand we would never hear the end of the Harden comparisons.
