*SportsHoopla NBA Mock Draft*

[wildturkey]

I want to take the Kings but only so I can torture @Bolts by passing on Ayton or Doncic by trading #2 to the Clippers for #12 and #13 to take two guys that are out of the league in 5 years

@Bolts want the Kings?

@Mecca Clippers?

Let's get a GM for each team & get a mock draft going, shouldn't be too difficult.

You can make trades with other GM's as well, just try and make them realistic.... once we fill up each team with an owner we can get rolling. 2 rounds. Timetable for being OTC will be explained once filled. IF we need someone to own more than one team we can do that to fill it up quicker, but ideally hope to get 30 people involved.

Here is the draft order: (owner in parenthesis)

1st Round:

1. Phoenix Suns (@Arizona_Sting)
2. Sacramento Kings-
3. Atlanta Hawks-

Hawks

Good choice. They've got a ton of picks so that'll be fun.

 

[Bolts]

Feel free to pick a team even though LAL has been taken.

@Bolts want the Kings?

@Mecca Clippers?

I'll do it, Luka me.

Also I'm not trading the pick, I want the Kings to get Doncic or Ayton. Not sure if the FO is thinking that way and the media keeps writing articles about them not drafting Luka, but if I had the choice I'm not passing up on either one of them.

 

[MikeMed]

I will take the Bucks

 

[tlance]

the Cavs will trade the 8th pick and give the Wiz their best big man in years (TT) for Wall?!

I think I will pass.

There is no combination of assets that could net you Wall. 8 isn't good enough and TT has negative trade value.

Unless you are willing to discuss a sign and trade with LeBron, the Wiz will not be sending Wall to Cleveland.

 

[LogicMan]

I will take the 17 times champion Boston Celtics................and I may surprise you with my pick

 

[logic]

Pistons at #42 take----Who the fuck cares! It's the fucking 42nd pick in the NBA draft where usually about 12 guys usually have any right being on an NBA team.

I am just excited for your Suns to really put the rebuild into its next phase.

With all their picks and young talent they should be in great shape in the West--- especially if Ayton is anywhere NEAR the player they think he could be.

Look at some of the other rebuilding teams and their talent:

Dallas: DSJ, lets say Moahmed Bamba, Seth Curry, Yogi Ferrell, Nerleans Noel, (i think Bamba is a good assumption)
Kings: DeAron Fox, lets say Doncic, CAuley-Stein, Harry Giles, Buddy Hield ( i think Doncic is a fair assumption
LAL: Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball, Kyle Kuzma, Josh Hart - late 1st rounder, Julius Randle (assuming they resign him as if PG resigns in OKC as rumored they will prob resign him)
Magic: Aaron Gordon, Mario Hezonja, Jonathan Simmons, Evan Fournier, high lotto pick like Bagley or Porter
Bulls: Lauri Markkanen, Zach LaVine, Kris Dunn, high lotto pick like JJJ maybe, Bobby Portis, Justin Holiday
Suns: Devin Booker-, lets say Ayton, Dragan Bender, Marquis Chriss, Josh Jackson, TJ Warren,


dude i gotta EASILY go with the suns out of that---- Devin Booker, Josh Jackson, and Ayton is a freaking MONSTER core of talent- and that doesnt even count guys like Bender and Chriss who can become solid stretch 4's (i bet one of them becomes a very solid at the least rotation player), TJ Warren is a solid defender....


Next- honestly id probably go with the Bulls. Markanen looks great. And they will add a great talent in the draft. Kris Dunn looked really good at times and is a good fit in todays NBA.


So those are my two rebuilding teams from each conference that i think have the best cores--- the Suns and the Bulls.

cmon--- Tristan can teach the Wiz what it means to be a champion!!!!

you know youd rather have him that Mahimi or Gortat!

 

[WiggyRuss]

The Suns are about to have: Devin Booker, DeAndre Ayton, Josh Jackson as the core of their rebuild. On top of that they still have talented but unproven guys like Bender and Chriss- one of which i think will become a solid stretch 4 one day.

Not only that but they have a ton of picks

#16 this year.

The a first round pick from the Bucks possibly in 2019 if it transfers

and ANOTHER unprotected pick from the Miami Heat in 2021.


that is a GREAT position....Booker, Ayton, Jackson, 3 EXTRA first round picks the next few years to either use or trade.....

It wont be long before the Suns are again a contender in the West. They did their rebuild right.

 

[flyerhawk]

I'll take the Sixers unless another Sixer fan really wants to do it.

 

[shopson67]

I will take the 17 times champion Boston Celtics................and I may surprise you with my pick

LiAngelo!

 

[shopson67]

I'll draft for whatever team you can't find a taker for (as long as they have a 1st rounder).

 

[tlance]

cmon--- Tristan can teach the Wiz what it means to be a champion!!!!

If you want to deal Tristan for Mahimi and Gortat, then you have a deal!

 

[CitySushi]

I'll take the Warriors.

If no one else wants the Magic, I'd be willing to take them too. I don't recall seeing many Magic fans on here.

 

[Mecca]

Feel free to pick a team even though LAL has been taken.

@Bolts want the Kings?

@Mecca Clippers?

Yup, Paper Clips

 

[Mecca]

@Arizona_Sting

I propose #13 to the Suns for #16, 31 and 59.

 

[Mecca]

I’ll take the Cavs please
