Draft Lottery

[The Q]

I hope Portland gets #1 and you get #2.

I have said it before, I would not want the #1 pick this year.

Loads of talent.

But, do you want to be the team that picked Ayton or Bagley over Luka?

Phoenix might not admit they shit the bed.

But, they had Luka's former coach as their head guy.

....and they still picked Ayton.

I don't think they regret hiring Monty.

That was Cleary the right call.

But, I'd rather have Luka, Booker, Bridges over Cp3, Booker, ridges, Ayton.


Monday morning quarterbacking.

But, yeah......

Luckily for you, Presti is a much better talent evaluator than I.

But, all these guys are so close.

I'd hate to pick a rotation guy over a perennial All-Star.

I’d rather have luka than Monty lol

 

[tlance]

A lot of ifs.

Of course.

But what is 23 going to do for them right now?

Not a lot.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Yup.

But, top 10 still gets you good value.

I really like Keegan Murray, Shaedon Sharpe.

If Keegan goes past 5 the 5th gm should be fired.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

I'm such a Keegan homer if the Pistons could take 5 today along with him I'm all in.

 

[Mecca]

What do you think about Chet?

I see longer Andre Kirilenko.

I'm not taking AK47 #1.

 

[ChrisperJ10]

I really like Keegan Murray, Shaedon Sharpe.

Funny how some still think he’s going back to Kentucky. That kid already has an NBA body.

Too much a risk imo

I'd take Ivey, Jabari, paulo or Keegan over him. If those 4 went then I'd go Chet 5

If I’m sharpe’s reps I’m burying him in a hole until the draft

He much more to lose than to gain

For what?

He's going top 10.

The upside he has surpassed the best case for any of them though

I find Ivey to be overrated at this point

Depending on what they do with Brogdon, Heild, and where their pick lands, I'd like to see him in Indy.

Duarte, Sharpe, Halliburton would be a nice little trio.

But, if they trade Turner, they are likely taking a big.

 

[DJ]

It might not.

But the pick has a lot more to improve than it does to get worse.

As someone else said, the difference between 23 and 28 doesn’t matter a whole lot. But, if Philly turmoil + injuries lead to a lost season, it could possibly be significantly better than 23.

The Nets could also use it now since they need to add players since they have a bunch of FA's that won't be returning.

I can see where someone would be down on Ivey

I'd prefer Keegan

They can get 2 picks for turner

For sure

I think the nets could make a big play

Draft position will greatly influence where these guys land.

Nobody in this draft falls into the Shaq/Duncan/Lebron " you draft him despite him not being a team need " category.

I honestly dont see why any of the top teams would take Ivey #1 overall.

Houston just drafted Greene and have Porter Jr.

OKC just drafted Giddey and have SGA.

Portland has to pay Simons and have Dame.

Detroit has Cade and should take a big if they are trading Grant.

Orlando has Fultz, Anthony,Wagner, Suggs, Hampton and need a big. They are insane if they trust Isaacs to be healthy.

You never know wtf the Kings will do.

So, they are the wildcard, I guess.

Orlando has Fjltz, Anthony,Wagner, Suggs, Hampton and need a big. They are insane if they trust Isaacs to be healthy.

You never know wtf the Kings will do.

So, they are the wildcard, I guess.

I think this draft has a solid top 10 or so and then all hell breaks loose

I'm not taking AK47 #1.

I just don’t think he is athletic as AK47 was

I think okc (presti took Russ)
Det (pesti disciple)

And
Hou (I wouldnt commit to Porter) are all in play

Comparing him to Shawn Bradley just felt lazy.

AK was more athletic.

Chet is a better shooter and longer.

Yeah he is definitely more athletic than Bradley, I just remember Kirilinko being a very dynamic player at times, that is not Holmgren.
