The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

It looks bad that he wants to be a King. Who are the people in his corner?

When teams are that bad, you can't just rely on someone to have incredible talent. They have to be a little crazy to take on that challenge. Wanting to save eternally woeful franchises is like wanting to raise someone else's kid. It's noble and you respect them that much more if it ends well, but better him than you.

i don't think either Tatum or Brown are guards

No, neither is Crowder...I don't see where you're going with this.

Why isn't Issac being talked about to Boston? He can actually rebound the ball and would probably be their tallest player if I'm not forgetting someone.

Brown started games as the shooting guard.

3 is too early I like him tho

I'm not factoring in Crowder. I'm assuming he's out of the picture in this scenario. If you have Brown and Tatum, where are they playing on the court? Neither is a SG, and if Tatum is an undersized 4, then it's a bad AND short term pairing with Horford.

Brown started games as the shooting guard.

And I think he's out of position. You're playing him there because you already had a 3. Y'all were using weird lineups all year, Green at the 4, Crowder at the 4. It was non conventional, which is why in an AD pursuit, the #3 pick or Brown will inevitably be part of that package

Boston being smart for once.

Getting Tatum and letting the idiots in Philly take Fultz is genius.

Big time kudos to Danny Ainge if he pulls this off. He would get arguably the best player in the draft and he would have gotten extra first round picks as well.

Brown played plenty of SG though

If Ainge wants Tatum that bad, then he can trade down and get him at #6. Call Orlando and see if they'll take a package centered around #3 and 37 in exchange for 6 and Vucci Mane.

If Orlando is smitten with either Isaac or DSJ they have no incentive to do this

Not sure if tatum is the best player in the draft, especially wjth his jumper (form).

I can see celtics playing small ball and putting tatum at pf tho

He's not

Tatum is an undersized 4 in my eyes. Not a good look for Boston.

I don't like Josh there either though.
