2020 Draft Night Thread

[mksp]

I only watched highlights for two players going into draft - Cole Anthony - DID NOT WANT and Tyrese Maxey, who looked like he could get to the rim and was pretty crafty inside 6 feet with an array of finishes, so works for me.

His release on 3s is looooooow.

[HartfordWhalers]

Very excited to have our first good finisher in 100 years

Ish to Noel oops don't count?

[doctor him]

I hope we trade up for Tyrell Terry..

That would be fine.

Or sit at 36 and let Flynn or Bane or Joe or Riller or Pritchard be the pick there.

There will be a pure shooter at 36.

They played this whole day correctly.

Wasn't that 101 years ago, at least?

[Sixersftw]

I'd love to move back into the 1st. There's so much spice still on the board.

[Stanford]

Move up and take RJ lol

So Brand traded Markelle Fultz for Tyrese Maxey. Maxey is probably better than Fultz right now.

[SixthStreet]

Would have preferred a future pick to utilize later in trade but the Maxey has a chance. Not a big fan but decent measurables.

heeeeeeeey, he returns!

[jotachase]

love the pick. he has the potential to be exactly what this team needs as he develops

[doctor him]

Love the pick. Maxey is a physical kid who can create and shoot it a bit.

His release looks low but that can be fixed.

He's a guy that you can play in the last 6 minutes even in the playoffs and he's not going to be a target for the other team on the pick and roll.

Whoever works with him, make sure it's not the Sixers, or else that shot is ****.

I've never understood why the Sixers don't keep Herb Magee on retainer to come and work with the guys over the summer.

That's always baffled me.

Million dollar question... You worried about Maxey's shot like Fultz's?

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

Maxey compares to Cuttino Mobley. I actually remember Mobley. I guess...I see the comparison, but Mobley was a much better shooter coming out of college. I don't know, we'll see.

[Black Mage]

I was a bit down on Maxey mostly because his 3 pt shot is really low and is more of a push shot than wrist flick. He'll need some retooling. Otherwise, I like him as a total package prospect. Though rolling the dice on Hampton was really tempting.

[PhillyFan11]

Maxey apparently compares to Beal, Lowry... Does that sound right?

Lowry and Beal seem like way too good of shooters for a comparison unless you have reason to believe he’s much better than the 29% he shot from college 3.

I wanna say Marcus smart because of body type but Maxey is faster and a better scorer off the dribble.

I just hope he can be like a Jamal Crawford type. High energy bench player than can give us 20 mins of instant offense a night

[HankTheTank]

Please someone take Hampton before the Celtics at 26

[Skates]

So Brand traded Markelle Fultz for Tyrese Maxey. Maxey is probably better than Fultz right now.

Million dollar question... You worried about Maxey's shot like Fultz's?

Maxey took some bad shots, shot needs work, but not weird as Fultz, plus excellent FT shooter, unlike Fultz.

Also not the first pick in the draft that we traded another lottery pick to select over Jayson Tatum.

[Stanford]

DENVER

**** Denver

[Negrodamus]

Weird, stepped away for a minute and Nnaji and Bolmaro are the next picks?

[eyeatoma]

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit....
