The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

[Poitier]

Can one of y'all give me a scouting report on Justin Jackson? @Malta @str8up @Poitier @tremonthustler1

Off-ball shooter who excels in the midrange with his floater which is ELITE. Expanded his range out to 3 this year but it remains to be seen if that will hold up. Moves really without the ball and has some defensive versatility though he is too slight of frame to guard stockier perimeter players but he does have great height/length.

I'm feeling the lakers drafting ball/kuzma/hart. High bball iq hard working players. No more dlo and swaggyP

I wouldn't call Kuzma a player with high basketball IQ.

 

[str8up]

I like the Tatum pick for Celtics

Not sure how it works with him & Brown though

Put Tatum at the 4.

 

[str8up]

Money ain't a thing to Lacob

Next year teams will be able to spend $5.1M

I don't see one pick going for that much though, the draft is kind of weak.

They have to spend that much or can?

 

[Malta]

So if Philly is more talented than Boston why didn't they make the playoffs last year?

So, using this logic you have more talent than the Wolves, right?

 

[tremonthustler1]

He doesn't want to admit that a player he shytted on for nearly an entire year ended up netting his team an all-star.

He can't live down the fact he said Zach LaVine was an NBDL player.

You're too kind. I never said this.

 

[str8up]

They have to spend that much or can?

They can. This year it was $3.6M max.

 

[Swagnificent]

Put Tatum at the 4.

LOL. Nope. Tatum is a 2/3.

I'd personally like to see him play SG so he can take advantage of 2s with his length and size.

Zach LaVine sucks

Good....we'll have our own picks then

Josh Jackson is going to be great in Phoenix. Rookie year he'll probably come off the bench and fill the role PJ Tucker had. He won't be asked to do too much right away. TJ Warren will start and it will be his contract year so he better ball out.

I always saw TJ Warren as the ultimate 6th man.

Reminds me of the original "Point a minute" man Cedric Ceballos.

Him and Ulis off the bench will give teams fits

Yes.

Theres a realistic possibility embiid never plays 60 games in a season. Stop running from this because it's more likely than not.

There isn't a single player on your roster, or in the next draft on KAT's level, yet you believe the Celtics are more talented than the Wolves? They have two of the best players under 23 in the league, you have zero.



What part of "If healthy" are you failing to grasp when it comes to the Sixers? They have the much higher end talent than you, period.
