The Official 2016 NBA Draft Talk Thread

[Regular_P]

According to one of SI's NBA writers:

Worst franchise in the league.

I told y'all this is a smokescreen.

Someone must want him later in the draft and waited till today to spread this rumor.

Thon Maker looks 19. Just look at his face. He's got a young looking face.

Gona see alot of pawg gf

 

[Kang Deezy]

Worst franchise in the league.

Sabonis is gonna be good

 

[Max.]

Worst franchise in the league.

Hes projected to go 9/10 tho

 

[Regular_P]

Sabonis is gonna be good

They have Cousins and drafted WCS last year.

 

[Malta]

He put in that work. It's unlikely the Wolves will be there again so what's next for Tremont

He was making these threads when the Wolves were late lottery and he knew they were going to take a player he hated (LaVine).

Worst franchise in the league.

It doesn't make any sense, unless they're trading Boogie and want to move forward with a WCS / Sabonis frontcourt.

 

[Swagnificent]

the timing is odd, agreed

I just dont see it with dude, you really think he will be a player?

Not really.

I haven't seen him play many true 5 on 5 games. I have no idea if he can play.

I'm just willing to take a chance on him for 2 reasons:

(1) This is an epically weak draft with no good options after Ben Simmons.

(2) He has freakish athletic gifts. 6'11.75" barefoot. 7'3" wingspan. 9'3" standing reach. 36.5" vertical. Plus exception speed and agility.

The guy is a physical marvel. Much like Giannis Antentekuompo. And like him, he's in a very weak draft.

Giannis deserved to have been the #1 pick in 2013 even though he played in the Greek second division because of his unique physical gifts and the weak talent coming out that year.

Similarly, I got Thon Maker as my #2 player in this class cause of the overall weak talent coming out in 2016 and his unique physical gifts.

So you've never seen him play but have him #2?



You should probably not post in here anymore.

I can't think of another team that consistently fukks up the draft like the Kings. Anybody who works in that front office must be looked at like poison by other teams. :smhkobe:

 

[Buckeye Fever]

Where do yall think Adrien Payne gets drafted tonight?

The moves they make are just half the time, hell WCS wasn't even supposed to go that early, and his presence + Rondo is why Cousins started shooting so many threes.

I've seen the rest of the bums in this draft that folks have going 2-5 and wouldn't take them in the lottery.

That's why I'm gonna roll the dice on Maker.

I know the rest of these bums will be busts. At least Maker might end up being good.

He's 22 or 23 and hasn't played a minute of competitive basketball

Wait til scouts start going down there.... so much untapped talent. They go DR and Cuba for baseball.

But never thought a mostly black country, right next door and we aint have major ballers that aint being noticed, cuz not in USA high schools or college.
