2017 NBA DRAFT Part 3

[sdn40]

Wow.
Browsing around for the latest mocks. Is anything on the espn website free any more ?
No wonder they have money problems - they make themselves so hateable

[Ron Swanson]

The difference between #48 and going undrafted is negligible. Pretty much every one of these guys from 35-60 is one skill deficiency or red flag away from playing in Europe. It's not really a tier where there are "clearly better prospects" anywhere. Just grab the guy you like.

[SirChurros]

His big selling point was his size and strength though

He's basically an Amare Stoudemire at 19 physically, was Amare small/weak.

Watch his Bucks workout, I bought in because of his nice stroke.
Having a big that will shoot 70%+ FT% is huge for me.
He wasn't joking, he could play some 3 and 4 as well.

Where can I find his Bucks workout?

[Badgerlander]

i was all about him last year before he pulled out of the draft

he's a very John Hammond esque player....can switch in our defense easily

that was two years ago that he pulled out of the draft. I like him but we can get him as a UDFA, there will be better prospects at #48

What do you think about Dorsey at 48 if he is there?

Love me some Dorsey, reminds me of Mo Williams. I think he'll be a terrific shooter, needs to improve his handles and develop a floater, not sure that he'll ever be much of a PG other than the simple pass out of a PnR. Bench guy but clutch as hell.

[Rockmaninoff]

If we're picking Bam, I hope we have a deal in place to remove 1 or 2 of our other 4 centers.

[SirChurros]

Yeah, if Horsty takes a big, he better have a plan to dump our other centers in place.

Well it's draft day and still no Little Cleo. I think we can safely assume he's dead and someone should probably call the cops.

He went to Orlando with Hammond.

[sdn40]

How far apart is Dorsey vs Hart ?

[BucksFanSD]

Chad Ford went from saying #17 was Giles' floor this morning to now saying he could go as low as 21.

Hehe. Giles is all over the place in the mocks. I hope #17 turns out to be his ceiling and floor.

[DingleJerry]

I've seen some mocks with Thornwell still there for our 2nd round. I've basically accepted we'll take another big with the first pick. So this would be my hope for the 2nd round pick. Feel like with his size/thickness that he can step in right away and hold his own on D while being able to hit 3s at a reasonable clip. If we want to save the money on Snell you definitely need a guy like this for depth. And even if you do keep Snell there's still a need at his positions with Jabari out, Terry ancient, and Vaughn a complete question mark.

I'm someone who knows some of the guys in our range but not all of them. Who would you guys say could be a high upside pick with a great work ethic and attitude? Cause whatever that name is would be the guy I want. I like Ike so far though.

We can all still hope Mitchell falls, right? There's no way Kennard will.

I am afraid Kidd will try to deHammond the Bucks and trade Thon.

Kidd has zero off-court vision

I just saw a Tweet saying the Kings are interested in Giles at 10. Also seen Nets people hoping for him at 25 or whatever they've got. Wild

Ike has 2 of your 3 requirements ... he lacks upside

I have been watching workouts + interviews for over a month (love RealGM like a hobby) ...

The player that pops out with your 3 requirements ... is Semi Ojeleye

Semi Ojeleye is gonna be the best he can be.

I wouldn't hate to see our 1st pick in the g league on a nightly basis.

His somewhat difficult name to pronounce would fit really well in MKE...I like his candor about his cousin. I will say that Kentucky big name don't seem to get showcased, so I'd buy that he has some more skills than we have seen.

[Thunder Muscle]

I haven't followed as closely this year, but the 2 guys I was kind of hoping to be available (Dennard, Mitchell) sound like they have virtually no chance of being there.
