Just going to throw out some potential lottery choices since after that it is really hard to call someone a bust.


Dunn based off of where he is being projected. I think if he is a starter its on the lower end at the point.

Chriss I just don't see it.I don't see him as a starter. He can really jump but everything else for me isn't there.

Brown is an athletic freak but he is just really limited on offense and I just don't see that changing.

Baldwin has the size and length but I have never seen the guy really put it together on the court. I don't see him as a starter.

Luwawu I think is being a bit overrated as far as his potential. See him as a role player.

Murray just being a bit too wild and not skilled enough to justify having the ball in his hand enough to have a chance to succeed.

Kid reminds me of Klay and isn't projected to be drafted. He is one of those guys whom I don't think realizes how good he is and doesn't assert himself enough.

Maybe not on draft night, but I could see us getting the rights to the player drafted at #2 for Melo. DRuss and Randle traded to a 3rd team allowing the LAL to get Cp3, and Lebron n Wade signing discount deals to play there.

Cp3
DWade
Lebron
Melo

:o


...but at least we get to pair Kp with Simmons/Ingram.

You need to download the watchESPN App. Signup, then signin, and you can see ESPN. Test it out away from home tomorrow and see if you can successfully see an ESPN program live.

Congrats on your son. Kinda late in the day for a graduation though.

iOS or Android?

If the Sixers give the C's the rights to Ben Simmons, it's time to slap the f#$k out of that front office.

I think it is more likely a trade is being discussed around Okafor than the #1 pick.

That was tongue in cheek.

32 year old Melo can't net us a top 5 pick, let alone top 2.

We should trade him for picks though.

But we won't.

Because...Knicks.

Yea if he pull off two picks and a trade for a point I will be happy. I just hope we active because I want us back in the playoffs again. I miss my team playing for something first round exit Idc. Just that feeling of being there I miss that. It's time now no more taking up for Phil if he have a bad off season.

Yeah I've never seen a graduation (at any level) start that late, except for Medical ones.

Anyway, maybe these will help:

Other than tnat, maybe try the Raptors board.

:crazy:

Whitehead's stock has been dropping (as I noted earlier), from late 1st/early 2nd to mid/late 2nd.

Dunn has the potential to be the best PG out of past year's AND this year's Drafts.
