I wish Philly got 5 or 6 ... they don't deserve to move up to #3

I thought UTA tanked harder, personally. Wiz just flat out aren't good.


Wiz have been tanking for the last 10 years.

Davis, Washington, Flagg, Thompson, Irving
Gafford, Lively, Marshall, Dinwiddie, Hardy, Martin, Exum

Dallas got a pretty deep team if they can stay healthy.

More like spurs won. They can make a trade for giannis


That's possible, but I do expect Giannis to enter the frequently injured, out for large parts of the season, Porzingis part of his career...

Giannis ain't going to an inexperienced team like the Spurs.

Knicks best option for Giannis.

For sure. I hope we get Vecenie, KOC, Ringer, and/or GIvony mock drafts tonight before the end of the C's game tonight

Who are the Knicks gonna a give up? Inexperience but they have a talented big man. Some decent pieces around. Knicks have nothing to offer the bucks.

If Giannis desperately needs a ring, go to Boston to play with Tatum, the new Superman.

I do feel sorry for Danny, but if he had gotten Flagg, you never would see him on the Celtics...

The two projected 2nd and 3rd picks are from Rutgers, who couldn’t even make the tournament with these two guys. I’d be shocked if either of them are really worth the hype.

I can’t remember the last time a top 5 pick didn’t even make the ncaa tournament (excluding international players obviously lol)

LMAO so Silver approved Doncic to Lakers and in return promised the #1 pick. It might not be true but I believe that in my heart.

I tend to agree with the part about Giannis not going to the Spurs, I don't know if he wants to be the second banana to Wemby and he wants to be on a surefire championship contender...

Silver is crooked as Stern was.....No wonder The Lakers got Luka, because he promised Dallas the #1 Pick.

Damn, I’d love to somehow move KP, 28 and 32 to the Spurs for 14. However it can happen I’d love that.

Imagine a Big 3 of AD, Kyrie, and Jaylen Brown.

Nico said the Mavs want to win now.

Flagg not ready for prime time early in his career.

The “GOAT” Ben Simmons the number #1 pick didn’t make the NCAA Tournament.

Auburn’s Tahaad Pettiford’s anthro measurements from the 2025 NBA Draft Combine:

6’0 ¼" barefoot, 168.8 lbs with a 6’5 ½" wingspan and 8’0” standing reach
Win for him

Return to Boston Celtics
