2020 NBA Draft Thread, Part 2 -- (8PM, Wed, Nov. 18, ESPN)

[SmartWentCrazy]

Would love Tyrell Terry but not sure about picking him at 14. If there's any way to trade 26 and 30 to move up to like 20-22 then I think that's the move to take. Terry likely won't be there

The guy is just too skinny. He's built like a twig. He's going to get abused on defense badly.

He’s grown— was 6’1 155 when he first got to Stanford. He’s apparently 6’3 174 right now. Ill take the height with a grain of salt but he’s visibly bigger in the newest images we have of him.

Still too skinny, but hopefully the trend continues and he can add another 10-15 lbs

[winsomme2]

Not my first choices but how about this combo:

14 - Cole Anthony
26 - Isaiah Joe
30 - Paul Reed

I’m really starting to like this kid. The work ethic is their & seems like he’s a high IQ player.
I reckon he’ll be the steal of the draft.

[100proof]

No to Cole.

I see one of my binkies is moving up in the draft, Ramsey.

14- Haliburton, Hampton, Ramsey, Jalen Smith, Nesmith, Bey, Vassell. Any of those I would be happy with

26- Joe, Ramsey, Nesmith, Hampton, Terry, Bane - would be extatic with

30- Joe, Terry, Bane, T. Bey, Green.

But I want to believe we leave the draft with:

Haliburton
Jalen Smith
Ramsey
Joe

I would punch an old lady to make that happen

No wonder so many execs are terrible at drafting lol. In what world is Cole the 35th best player in this draft?

[flintsky21]

Let's play a game. If the Celtics could trade the 14th pick to any of the top 7 teams in the draft, which deal would you do?

1. To Minnesota for Malik Beasley
2. To Golden State for Eric Paschall
3. To Charlotte for Miles Bridges
4. To Chicago for Wendell Carter Jr.
5. To Cleveland for Darius Garland
6. To Atlanta for Cam Reddish
7. To Detroit for Luke Kennard

Best all around big prospect if he can stay healthy in my opinion. He fits the Celtics offense to a tee as well.

Killian Tillie shot 49.0% (24-49) on 'Pick and Pop 3s' over his four years at Gonzaga

Over those four years, he was a career 44.4% (106-239) 3-point shooter.

None of those guys would be traded lol. We would trade up 14/26/30 to move up to those picks AND then get one of their key players? How does that make any sense?

No. We're not getting their pick back. Just the player mentioned. Basically a pick for player trade.

He has a lot of red flags but he will be picked in the teens. Just can't see him

Celtics have probably "talked to" almost every prospect in their range. But this guy is a little intriguing. Injuries are terrifying.

I would take him at 47. He fits in Brad Stevens system.

it's really a three horse race between Bridges, Reddish and WCJ. I was never high on WCJ and in a loaded draft class he shouldn't have been taken in the first half of that draft. He's done nothing to prove I'm wrong. He's just a big body out there that isn't great at anything. I honestly don't think he's an upgrade over Theis right now and even should he improve, it won't be worth passing over the other two. Miles Bridges reminds me of a cross between Smart and Jaylen. So much hustle and leadership. He's been stuck on badly run teams with kids around him so we haven't nearly seen his peak. He really needs to work on his handle. It's not sloppy and loose but if he wants to take the next step and become a major force, that and his three ball have to improve. I was much lower on Reddish than everyone because his BBIQ is non-existent. But he's tempting because of 3 and D and he really has a pretty stroke. The problem is it didn't go in when he was in college and the first half of last season. But then, in the second half, albeit a small sample, he shot great. He'll only ever be a 3 and D with Harrison Barnes being his peak. Bridges and Tatum are friends so I think I'd go with him because he has a better all around game and higher BBIQ than Reddish. He's very unselfish and has an infectious non-stop motor. He'd really compliment Jaylen and Tatum and we'd continue to have the best trio of wings in the NBA when Hayward leaves.

We are not very successfull with the French guys...Moïso, Pietrus, Yabusele...not sure I want Killie !

WCJ easily for me, but can’t see why Chicago considers it.

[GoGreen]

Really don't want anyone with an injury history. As far as guards; tyrell, and kira seem like good fits. For bigs and wings, precious, okongwu and vassell I'm all for

So is Killie a better or worse prospect than Poku?

His release is really slow too. Not a fan.

Way better. Pokusevski is like 3-4+ years away from helping a good team. Tillie steps in immediately and is a playmaker on both ends if he's healthy. And looking at his injuries, they're all isolated and non-career threatening as far as I can tell. It's not like he's coming off a microfracture surgery or missing his ACL like DeJuan Blair. Broken finger, preventative knee surgery, stress fracture in his foot. Just get him some calcium and PRP injections all over his body. At 47 he's a no brainer. Put a healthy rookie Tillie in against the Heat and he wrecks their zone.
