Official 2016 NBA Draft Thread

[Black Adam]

so what does this mean for Rubio...?

T-Wolves on the upswing. not too shabby...

Yea, i have been watching them because they are in the nuggets division and they KAT and Wiggins remind me so much of shaq and penny it isn't funny.

 

[The Derski]

Denzel Valentine I think will have a solid, solid career wherever he gets picked.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Nugz make out well at #7. Now Murray or Hield will be there for them.

I think it means he is a one year stop gap

yep, and i thought we would be lucky if one is there. I would be happy with either one of those guys

 

[Bolts]

Great pick

 

[Kold]

T'Pups are stacked with young talent

 

[The Derski]

Depending on the team I think Jamall Murray could average 15+ ppg his rookie season.

 

[WiggyRuss]

What you guys are all saying about Bender is what people were saying about Porzingis...not saying Bender is Porzingis....but ya never know.


The Boston pick confuses me. What a difference between the top 2 and the rest in this draft. Sixers and Lakers got lucky.

I like the Lakers young guys talent wise--- Russell, Randle, Ingram....realistically- if they keep that core they could be really good eventually but it wont be for years yet....if they want to deal those guys they prob could get vets but i think patience is the best....i dunno...its tough to say.

I love that Ingram is pretty much a natural small forward. Its HARD to get small forwards in the NBA. a sweet shooting small forward who can create plays and play some D is just perfect.

Dumb trade for minnesota. Thibs needs to be smart and just develop the talent he has.

 

[purguy12]

great pick by Minn.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Rubio gone fishin?

 

[purguy12]

Kid Dunn will be special. Kid can do it all.

If he makes it to the nuggets he will average more than that

 

[Bolts]

 

[SFGRTB]

There goes Buddy, then Murray.

Kings will trade back hopefully for Baldwin.

 

[The Derski]

Anyone else laugh at "shout out to JC Penny"?

 

[WiggyRuss]

I see it the same way you do but with hom at the 4. You don't think Dray has an advantage over most 3's? Now if you do then you end up with the advantage at the 3 AND 4 positions with the best shooters in the league on the wings.

Draymond Green is not fast enough to guard the majority of wings....he can switch and do a good job- but you cantask draymond green to guard small forwards and play the small forward position. he cant handle that. For stretches sure- a lot of guys can....but draymond is not a small forward by any stretch of the imagination. Durant would DEF be the 3.

They shouldn't
