My Pops Forever RIP
I always remember the magic wanting Smart because they were planning on taking him 1 overall the year before had he declared
That Texas Tech incident knocked him down some if you recall. Exum-mania was taking over (remember how LA was dying for him to fall and when he did LA thought it was a done deal til Utah intervened?)

I always thought that was a smoke screen because of how heavily it was put out there

If embiid is done for, or least has become a much bigger question mark why wouldn't philly think about turner? He's the ideal fit next to Noel inside he?

Maybe the porzingas stuff is a smoke screen to leverage Orlando to move up

i generally disagree with your line of thinking on this..but if that is what philly wants to do they could trade down. theyre not taking turner at 3. 0%

I could see Turner going as high as 5, not 3... I do think Turner would be an excellent fit next to Noel if Philly trades back

I feel like this week is the most important for the celtics since 08 and possibly bigger than that

These dudes on RealGM saying they saw Embiid in Philly at a bar and a took this picture of him

They said they went up to him and asked him about his foot and Embiid said "I'm good, don't believe the media". Apparently he was jumping around and dancing with no boot on his foot or anything.

This is my current mock. Keep in mind that I do it in a contest with some friends...3 points for exact spot, 2 for 2 spots off and 1 for 3 spots off..this makes it a bit different than me necessarily thinking that player will actually be picked in that spot or by that given team (trade rumors taken into account)..I kept finding myself dropping Tyus Jones..Im likely to be way off on that. Also took into account rumored promises.
