2016 NBA DRAFT NIGHT THREAD

[Christine-In-AZ]

about 3 hours prior to the draft I offered up my (stretching it) two cents worthy hopes..

For my "draft record"..

I'm hoping McD can come out of this draft with Bender & Brown...*somehow not trading Knight in acquiring Brown.

*Knight asset used later this summer/fall

Thanking McD bigtime. He pulled off almost exactly what I wanted to happen. Will it pay off? F@#k if I know...and no one does.

Kudos Ryan McD! Sound tactic. Odds should be in the Suns favor that at least one of these risk/reward prospects pan out. And Knight still available for trading down the road.

WTF happens next...the next FA or trade move?...I've no clue.

Like today's moves

I know the Clippers have promised Bentil, but we're almost certainly going to get someone we shouldn't be able to get.

Luwawu
D. Murray
D. Jackson
Davis
Labissiere
Korkmaz
Ulis
Johnson
STone
Jones
Diallo
Qi
Whitehead
Onuaku
Brogdon
Payton

we'll get somebody good

If we could get Onuaku at 34 that would be crazy. I'm guessing we go guard or wing though.

Zizic to Boston.

We traded you, fair and square.
We asked your brother to be professional.
You told him to wreak havoc on our chemistry.
You got him traded.
You made this mess.
You're adults.
Grow the heck up already.

Could Luwawu/Korkmaz fall?

[Stix]

Boston being forced to draft stash because they can't make any deals.

[thamadkant]

I think the only other team who's done really well and probably slightly better than the Suns is Nuggets..

Murray and Mudiay, Hernandez, Jokic, Nurkic

They have BIG men who are "skilled" rather than "athletic"... with team oriented mentality. Then they have a nice fitting back court.
Not to mention they have a high motor player in Faried still... they have a DEEP team.

[aewyatt7]

Say don't get stash player. Get a kid with a chip on his shoulder. Aka felder... He will be better than Isaiah Thomas....

[Gorilla Warfare]

The Boston fans in the crowd are not happy and I don't blame them haha. Are they really going to only have 1 keeper and 7 stashers? No trades?

[gaspar]

Finally a decent pick by Ainge.

DEEP as in the bottom?

[Gorilla Warfare]

Luwawu going next.

[Kerrsed]

Could Luwawu/Korkmaz fall?

Word is that they are falling for a reason, and thats because teams are looking for Draft&Stash guys and many of the 1st round Euros want to come over now instead of waiting years to.

[8on]

i'm so high on Korkmaz. if we get him i'm going to be through the roof, but there are a bunch of guys i really like

[Kerrsed]

The Los Angeles Clippers will select UNC's Brice Johnson with the No. 25 pick, league sources tell @TheVertical .

[Gorilla Warfare]

Clippers taking Brice Johnson at 25.

[gaspar]

There's so many interesting players still available, I'd consider trading down with the Bucks for #36 and #38.

[nevetsov]

Hope we draft and stash a C... Eventual Chandler replacement at backup C.

Bledsoe, Knight, Price
Booker, Goodwin
Tucker, Warren
Bender, Chriss (maybe Teletovic?)
Len, Chandler

Could probably bring back Jenkins and Budinger as 3Rd string wings if need be.

[bwgood77]

Who is watching the Vertical feed?

[DRK]

Skal, Davis, Jackson, and Murray still on the board. This is crazy
