Raw player. Skipped out on the hoops summit. Red Flags all around. Another boom or bust player.

I don't think there's any Plumlees draft eligible.

Williams is going to be a Rim Runner in this league for years.

Hoping the Bucks either take Robert Williams, or trade down and get Brunson or Porter. Decent floor players with some upside. It’d just be nice to have these type of players on cheap deals instead of 8 mill/year.

I’m interested in seeing where Diop goes in the draft. He’s a senior, but he has also really grown as a player. His defense is outstanding and he has an unbelievable motor. I wouldn’t be shocked if he wows team’s in workouts and earns some Kawhi comparisons and is taken in the 15-20 range where we pick.

do not want him but remember we were connected to diallo from kentucky throughout the entire draft process in 2017 until he withdrew

dzanan musa is someone i'm seeing in mock drafts around our spot.

Not a fan.

Not a fan for us or in general? I'm pretty high on Musa. Good combination of size, athleticism, ball handling and shooting touch. He's still super young, too. Clearly needs to work on his body, but that is basicly any euro. His defensive footwork isn't even that bad.

We waived Teletovic. We can't trade him anymore.

He's lucky if he goes second round honestly. I wouldn't draft him.

I'd strongly consider Jaylen Brunson. Wouldn't be the worst idea to just draft a good basketball player with our recent track record of botching picks. I do like Robert Williams a lot though at our spot if he falls but I'm not sold on him.

As long as we don't draft a project player, we have too many of them in the past and failed.

We've also drafted one who is the best player the bucks have had since Kareem.

Everyone is gone that had a part of drafting Giannis. You're crazy if you trust the new FO to hit on another project like that. They've proven it's hard for them to even construct a proper sentence let alone draft another superstar in the mid 1st that no one has ever heard of.

We should be keeping expectations extremely low, like hoping we draft the next Ed Davis low.

I don't think you can trade down and land porter i think this is about the spot in the draft he goes.

He's a bit of a project but I really like the idea of porter with this pick. He has some nice potential as a passer and shooter at the 5.

I see some bring up williams but I doubt he drops to this point.

I think you’re right on Porter. His game reminds me a little of Al Horford. He has a nice jumper, passing ability and good footwork. He isn’t overly athletic, but he is still a good rebounder.

Give me a guy who knows how to box out. I don't care if it's a 5'11" PG.

Seriously tho, give me Williams. But I have doubts he'll still be there at 17.

I see some mocks with Bamba available at 8 for Cleveland. I trade 17/Bledsoe for 8 in a heartbeat. Bamba is a freak.

nmeurett · Post #579 » by **nmeurett** » Sat Apr 14, 2018 4:23 pm

If Cleveland would do that deal I would be all over it but I do not think they would.

VooDoo7 · Post #580 » by **VooDoo7** » Sat Apr 14, 2018 4:26 pm

Mo Wagner has officially declared.

Who do you think will be the #1 overall pick?
