I'd love Giles or OG...if ACLs weren't needed to play basketball.

DeJuan Blair would like to have a word with you.

Outlier alert...

Still, it would be nice if Jabari had a word with Blair.

Can we sell the pistons the idea of Baynes+12 for Henson+17?

So we get an upgrade, save salary, and move up 5 spots? COUNT ME IN

Somehow I don't think the Pistons are going for that deal :lol:

draymond green is the starting center for the best team in the nba.

why do you guys want to invest more in centers?

Most over hyped prospect in 10+ years. Anyone want to take a pride bet with me on if Fultz ever makes an all star team?

I'm down.

I'm gonna go out on a major limb here and make a bold prediction: His floor is Damian Lillard. He'll be an elite PG by the time he's approaching his prime years, probably sooner. The dude is a generational PG talent imho. He was absolutely phenomenal last year, no way is he "overhyped". I think everyone is so caught up with the idea this draft is very deep and the late hype train around DeAaron Fox and even the Lonzo Ball saga that ppl are forgetting there's a prospect head and shoulders above everyone in Markelle Fultz.

The last 4 guards to be taken #1 were Iverson, Rose, Irving and Wall. It's going to be beyond shocking if Fultz doesn't at least make an all-star team.

For a guard to be taken first, he's got to be stupidly good.

I haven't spent as much time looking at the draft as I usually do, but the top 10 looks really solid. Normally there are a couple guys I just don't like, but I could see them all panning out. I'd say I'm the lowest on Tatum given his #3 projection.

**** that guy, should be playing in a prison league.

Centre who can play help d + catch and dunk or a perimeter player who hits threes without needing miles of space

Sitting in a training day today, what time do we think we will be picking?

Anybody know who Ford has us taking in his final mock this morning?

Edit, looks like its his final top 30 rankings but not final mock.

Can't wait to see who we pick

I'm even hopeful we might get a rotation piece out of our 2nd round pick.

That second part has me hopeful. I'd love a guy like Frank Mason even if he is undersized.

I fully expect to get another kick to the nuts Thursday by picking Giles.

I think Monte Morris would be a great fit for this team off the bench. Wouldn't mind a true pg who gets the ball in playmakers hands and rarely turns the ball over. I agree that he is underrated.

I know he's a couple inches shorter but I see a lot of Terrence Ross in him. That's a good thing.

I think he's got a lot more guard skills than Ross. Ross is a guy you want to almost never dribble the basketball IMO.

More guard skills for sure, but the same offensive mentality. He can score in bunches and we could use a guy like that.

Said it before, Fake Greek Patty Chuck.

Honestly, I agree.
