30 Team NBA Mock Draft DISCUSSION THREAD

[bksballer89]

i get why you cant draft during the day....working and what not--and who knows-..but to get on here for 5 minutes at night i wouldt think would be that hard...especially because you gotta know your up relatively soon.......this will take forever at this pace...

We'll be done by Selection Sunday

I didnt look at the names- and obviously maybe i have in the back of my head who drafted a certain guy so i know- but for the most part that was not the case--- of course ITS INSANELY early---- and please- i dont mean to offend anyone...but it is what it is...just my opinion.


My Favorite TEams

Boston Celtics- Gasol, Conley, Redick, Carroll- Love the first two picks, Gasol and Conley- maybe the best center in the league , and a top 7-8 PG---- and then perimeter shooting and perimeter D- good balance so far.

Cleveland Cavaliers- Russell Westbrook, Jabari Parker, Myles Turner- a young team obviously- but it has RW---- and Parker and Myles have tons of talent- Id take Myles Turner for the next 4 years over Whiteside without a second thought. I liked Parker's potential a lot- im a little down on him - since his shooting from the outside has come along fast enough- but hes still a future star i think. A young team- thought that needs vets

LA Clippers- Very balanced team- Kyle Lowry at PG is awesome. This guy doesnt get near the credit he deserves as a leader and a real franchise player. I love the front court combo of Jordan and Anderson. thats freaking deadly. They complement eachother awesome.

Golden State Warriors
I think Harrison Barnes was good value where he was taken- I think Blake Griffin was good value where he was taken- and Bledsoe i think was taken right about at the right spot--- all three of these guys are either in their primes or near it- but will still be in their primes 3 years from now. They are going to need shooting and defense but a good base.


LEAST Favorite teams

Dallas Mavericks- Isiah Thomas, Emmanual Muidiay, Paul Milsap- i mean- good players- but 2 point guards- both disasters on defense....Milsap is at the very crest of his value as well- its buying real high on him- even though i really like him. I thought Isiah was a stretch as a #1 pick i gotta say..

Atlanta Hawks--- Can you believe it? Yes they do have Kyrie---- but Ariza and Noah - as solid as they are- are older players that have already lost a step. I like Ariza and Noah a lot- but its hard for me to see a scenario where those guys can be the 2nd and 3rd best players on a really good team even with Kyrie carrying scoring load.

Thanks. I also just drafted Devin Booker, to help with my shooting. Barnes is also shooting 41.5% from the 3 point line this year too. Booker is shooting 39.6% from 3. Bledsoe was shooting at 37.2% before his injury. Depth is what will hopefully set my team apart.

 

[CitySushi]

Pretty solid so far and one of the best lineups. Would Blake be the guy you go to down the stretch? Obviously, your team is just getting started, just wondering bc Paul has always been the guy. So far good work though man.

Thanks. I think it wouldn't be an iso situation down the stretch. I think it would mostly revolve in a P&R with Bledsoe and Griffin. Let Booker and Barnes slide to the corners to create space in the middle. Bledsoe is a bulldog who can get to the hoop or make the right pass. Griffin is one of the best passers for his position and would be deadly in either diving to the hoop or finding an open man.

think this is our first 24 hour skip?

When is the deadline for this guy?

 

[Nosferatu]

It really has been forever. As long as I get my two guys to fill out my starting lineup I will be happy; otherwise lookout Silver and the rest of the NBA.

 

[WiggyRuss]

bksballer put him on that clock at 6:30 last night.

Shane, you need to come back to the drafts! We are doing an NHL draft but then a baseball draft will follow.

I'd like to publicly apologize for holding up the draft. I was gone yesterday and didn't think I'd come up so soon especially with a 24 hr. clock. Again my heartfelt apologizes to everyone for any inconvenience my absence caused, it won't happen again.

No worries man, shit happens. Exactly why I make it a 24 hour clock. Glad you got it in before then.
