Draft Thread 13 - The Field Thins

[CDAZ]

Again, in Orlando's perspective, there's no reason to do that deal. I'd rather have Biz than Noah and I'd assume they do as well.

if orlando wants no part of bamba there is incentive. A future protected 1st is more then they will get from anyone else and still land there target in trae young.

Take out the Noah/Biz deal and they'd maybe consider it. Noah is the worst contract in the NBA. You don't trade up and get rid of him simultaneously.

I thought Deng was the worst contract in the NBA.

im on board with taking lonnie at #9

i wouldn't mind it but can't have all those guards on the roster.

Frank/Burke/Mudiay
Thjr/Lee/Walker/Dotson/Baker

and really it was proven last year that none of those guys can play a wing position.

So if Lonnie is the pick I THjr and Lee should be seen the door or there will be a major log jam.

I still would pick MIkal over Lonnie but I would def have the conversation with Lonnie @ #9...

they all suck, half should of never been signed in the 1st place

[taj2133]

i think memphis takes porter.

[WajaBawl]

I suggest people watch that dime drop video. Dude shows that Porter cant even Bend Down even when he is healthy. Dude has serious Physical issues that people are glossing over cause he got a Jump Shot.

If he's already getting injured in the pre-draft process, how do people expect him to play a full 82 game season? Imagine him being a centerpiece on your team and have him sit out in the playoffs because of back injuries.

Btw Ill, who's your guy in this draft?

[Clyde_Style]

I hope Chicago drafts Porter

An inconsistent one, at that.

[F N 11]

Yeah, super Dubb for MPJ. He aint drop out for a promise he dropped out because he hurt. I'll stay far away fawk that.

Edit: When you mad busy at work and you see news on your phone and should know Realgm been talking about it lol.

[3toheadmelo]

Back injuries can lead to hip injuries...which can lead to other lower body injuries down the line. This is bad for MPJr.

yikes
i wouldn't touch him with a lottery pick now

dare i say i would even take troy brown over him

[Capn'O]

Wow, looks like he's really in serious consideration for #9.

But when they looked deeply into his eyes could they feel his soul bubbling up with the fury and power of a great ocean or the calm of a tranquil beach?

Not sure if a I have main main guy this year.

MIkal is at the top, but Im not all in on him.


I can roll with Lonnie as well.


Im a little more fluid this year than last. A couple of players I would not be mad at if they were picked.

[shtolky]

You gotta give the front office credit, they are showing they leave no stone unturned. First with the coaching search, now this pick. This pick is massively important, obviously.

[knickstape4ever]

Doesn't mean they can't.

But they shouldn’t.

I think Lee and THJr. will be traded on draft night, or before the season starts.

A lot of talk about trading Timmy here. Anyone thinking that will happen will be disappointed come Game 1. Mills isn't gonna admit defeat on that contract after 1 season of him being "ok;" Mills is probably thinking that THJ will be healthy and his shooting #'s will return to the norm (35% from 3). He tried to do to much, with stricter coaching he'll get on track. he wasn't nearly as bad as people are making it seem, some are comparing him to Noah and THJ has already outperformed him

[IllmaticHandler]

Porter looks like he is either greg oden or brandon roy. not in talent, but what ends up happening to their bodies....

[Spree2Houston]

Mikal Bridges will be like the Channing Frye pick. Potential all-stars may get picked after him ( ala Bynum), but just like Frye did, Bridges will have the longer and more productive career. A great role player but never truly an all-star.

[Marty McFly]

I'd like it if the front office kept tabs on what the kings are going to do. Maybe they'd still want Porter just not at #2. I'm definitely taking him a #9 if a deal can be made and the price isn't too steep.

How do you have hip spasms before a workout though? Usually you get muscle spasms after workouts

[Jeff Van Gully]

Back injuries can lead to hip injuries...which can lead to other lower body injuries down the line. This is bad for MPJr.
