The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

[Poitier]

He needs to bring more to the table than that as a top prospect to me. Being able to guard multiple positions at point guard isn't that valuable because thats practically no longer in the job description anymore. He needs to be able to bring it on offense too.

Theres practically 3 forwards in the league that are consistently killing guards in the post and killing bigs on the perimeter. Kevin durant, kawhi leonard and lebron james. But you cant guard those guys anyway. At the 1 id rather have my players be able to get me 20+ points.

you're building a bunch of strawmans
obviously frank can shoot and run PnR
only fultz/dsj look like volume scorers
and TEAMS consistently kill smalls on bigs in the post, individual players do not matter

@Poitier Why did Giles decline his green room invite? He think he going to pull a Deyonta Davis?

Giles is such a wild card. He could go anywhere from 10 to late first. If he got red-flagged which he hasn't to my knowledge then that's something. Maybe he just doesn't wanna take that chance.

And when he finds out poor man's Porzingis ain't there at 8...

Phil aint shyt

Should have been canned after the season

 

[d3323]

Phil's style is great for managing egos of established super stars. He doesn't know how to build a team though.

 

[NatiboyB]

That won't get them higher than 19

If they're willing to take a bad contract and the board looks a certain way... I'd be all for it here in Charlotte.

I never thought Fultz was some great athlete when I watched him at Washington. Ball seemed more explosive to me.

You were incorrect. And Ball has zero wiggle. Fultz is more explosive and WAAAAY more able to change speeds and directions. Doesn't mean he'll be the better player, but maybe we should do a little film session, just to get you right for the draft.

I'll bring the beer

Yall put waaaaaaaaaaay too much stock into workout videos lol.

I'm saying. Empty gyms, and guards blowing by 43 year old white trainers.

@Poitier Why did Giles decline his green room invite? He think he going to pull a Deyonta Davis?

I think his stock is super volatile. I also think he's hoping to end up on a team like the Raps/Jazz/Nets where next year could essentially be a rehab season.
