So do I, and many here. As it unlikely as it seems, it would take a draft shock of the ages for McDonough to take Doncic at #1 over Ayton. Everything points to Ayton being the number #1 pick... :nonono:


I am not going to be upset with the Ayton pick. I think he will be able to score in the NBA, rebound and if his defense can improve - he will be a very good player, possibly all star. I also, as I have said, get why Ayton is the pick. I just hope McD doesn't feel compelled to bring the guy who lived here home to fill the Center position that Phoenix has had a tough time filling. I just truly hope they all think he will be the best player - based on everything to date - to draft

I could be totally wrong about Doncic but from what I have seen, read, he just has something about him.

So, does the Sacramento Kings - they have all along.


All arrows point towards Bagley at the moment. Looks like it is going to be a massacre at nr3 if indeed Kings pass on Luka.

there was a tweet that said Vlade wants Bagley while Vivek wants Luka. If that's true (who knows) then they'll get Luka. There was that hilarious draft video about Stauskus where a bunch of people in the Kings draft room didn't want him and were making arguments against him/for others and Vivek is just like, "So Stauskus is clearly our guy, right everyone? Right? Excellent."

No way Clippers pass on Trae. Jerry West ain't no dummy and they need a PG anyway.

Is this real? surprised I haven't seen it talked about before....

http://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=400897113

Saw it in the NBA draft night thread

If so Doncic played pretty bad against NBA talent. I think his ability to score will be suspect coming to the league.

Ayton would have scored 20 against them at 17

If realgm ever gets a -1 button they should just name it the "wilber85". Every time you post i look for one.

Yeah, the videos have been posted numerous times. Goes to show how talented those euroleague teams are.

He looked pretty poised for being 17. That was 2 years ago, when the other draftees were getting ready for the senior years in high school and he was playing against Russell Westbrook and company.
