It's a requirement per Howard. Technically people are supposed to, some boards don't really enforce it as heavily.

neverending threads create data too big to query from a database in one go. it's just a safeguard from that scenario to keep site performant.

100 pages shouldn’t be too much for a simple query. I don’t believe that is an accurate issue.

Re: Draft Thread 6.0: Magic picking 6th, 35th, 41st
It's not the most popular opinion but Celtics are looking to move into the top 6 for Bamba. There is no way they are going to keep Kyrie,Horford, Hayward, Tatum and Brown all long term. Tatum and Kyrie I think are their untouchables. Its not impossible to think Boston could trade Brown. Something around the 6th(Bamba) for Jayleen Brown?

thats true. And at 6'7 with 6'11 wingspan, he could play SF.

I would personally do Jaylen Brown for 6, but would love to get their first this year as well

Pretty sure Celtics are targeting JJJ. No way ainges would divulge his true target. He is to clever for that.
But yes I would do #6 for brown.
More so I would prefer to trade up for JJJ. JJJ would be a game changer for us.

There is a time when teams must stop giving Boston high draft picks. They cant pay all of these players after their rookie deals. Its better to wait few years and than sign them for free. Trading 6th pick for Brown is very short sighted in my opinion. Other thing is there are many red flags he wont be half as good without Stevens offensive system + Horford + Tatum.
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

No one is going to be as good away from Stevens, brown is a very young up and coming wing.
What red flags are you seeing? I have not watched him that much

Re: Draft Thread 6.0: Magic picking 6th, 35th, 41st
My biggest issue with Jaylen Brown is that I’m not at all sold on the fact he’s actually a 40% 3PT shooter.
The odds of a 65% free throw shooter, which is what he’s been, being able to legitimately be a 40% three point shooter are pretty slim.
I could be way wrong, but it just feels like he’s due for some serious regression from three, especially if he isn’t on a really good team where the ball whips around side to side a lot.
He’s a whole lot less valuable if he’s a 34% three point shooter instead of 40%, ya know?

Rozier and Brown for pick and whatever from leftovers. I'm all for it.

Its better but still you trade for 2 players in the middle of their rookie contracts who showed they are great role players and complimentary players for real gems in Tatum and Horford. We really need more role players or we want to have a chance to draft game changer?

I think Jaylen has a much higher chance to be a game changer than anyone at 6.
