2017 NBA Draft Thread

So Alex Brown will play in Europe too. He needs to add some size & muscle to his 7'1" frame.

Spend a January in Minnesota then tell me that...

If spent a winter break in Wisconsin.

 

[The Derski]

Loved our draft overall. McDonough is a stud.

I would have taken Gary Harris over Ennis.

I would have taken Gary Harris over Ennis.

I think they didn't take Harris because of how much they love Goodwin.

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Might be time for a bump...


Things not looking good this year. My guess is we get the 12th or 13th pick and then get LA's in the 6-9 range.

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Well… looks like we're definitely getting a lottery pick this year! This thread is relevant again

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Montrez Harrell from Louisville should more than likely be on the board when we pick. I think he'd be a good fit. Plays defense and rebounds… a little undersized for a PF/C but he has a great motor.

 

[Orange602]

I like Harrell, but do we really want another undersized front court player?

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Man, I'd be down for drafting Sam Dekker at 13. He can shoot lights out… we need more shooters. Bad.

Looking at mock drafts now and there aren't too many guys I'm crazy about in our range. I could definitely see McDonough packaging the pick with some players for a big trade.

 

[The Derski]

Let's win win that lottery and draft Anthony-Towns.

Dekker is so over-rated. He blew up in the tournament, but that was an exception to his rule. He's largely been an unimpressive FT shooter and 3-point shooter for most of his career by any NBA draft standards.

Kaminksy would be far more interesting. He's been a consistently dominant shooter for a long time, but he's not that fast and not a great defender. But, as we know, the Suns don't care about defense anyways.

 

[The Derski]

We got the 13th pick.

 

[The Derski]

Who do you guys want us to draft? I think it would be awesome if Stanley fell to us. I also wouldn't mind Dekker.

 

[johnson]

Anyone but Dekker. I think Kaminsky would be an interesting pick. I have no idea how his game would translate to the NBA...a lot of people think it won't, but he was the most dominant NCAA Player the past two years.

Kaminsky seems to me like a version of Channing Frye, which I think fits very well. We just can't be so critical of his D or rebounding because his main asset is spacing.

 

[The Derski]

Actually I want Devin Booker.

 

[The Derski]

Draft is right around the corner what are your guys thoughts? This board is dead.

 

[Suns7]

Anyone heard of the rumors that the Suns could trade the 13th pick and Bledsoe to the Knicks for the #4 pick?

Actually I want Devin Booker.

Okay, Granted

 

[The Derski]

Okay, Granted

Haha yes!
