The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

Im satisfied

you might not need anymore SG's for a while with LaVine and Dunn

 

[Kang Deezy]

I'm tired of the thread being flooded with posts about your team of misfit roleplayers

Are you referring to the team that won their division and was the top seed?

that so much revolves around the Celtics

@str8up @Poitier @Malta Doncic looks like a Rudy Fernandez? Is that off base?

Does Porter JR project to be a superstar?

Who do you guys like more between Bamba & Ayton?

Any sleepers to watch who could break into the top 5?


Thanks

Welcome to tank life breh. I've been going thru this same thing with the Kings for years. I just want to see playoff basketball in Sacramento again. Don't even care if we get swept either.

It was long overdue for us

Hopefully we dont get sucked into a 8 year rebuild vortex

Need to luck up in the lotto and get a star next two drafts

Nah I'm tired of all these basketball threads turning into you slurping Danny Ainge and Boston. You have an offseason thread. Go spam that.

Been 11 years since the Kings have made the playoffs. George W Bush was president.

Kings gotta get a top 5 pick again next season. It sucks that our 2019 pick is completely unprotected.

Side note...I can't believe the Kings kept that pick we owed y'all all these years. It finally turned into a 2nd round pick this year.

@Malta talk to me breh

He's about to add Hayward, George, a top 3 pick and still have all his best draft picks. Hes a top 3 gm easily

that lowkey diss on Dunn

it's not a low key diss. I think moving forward his best asset will be an ability to guard multiple positions and fill in for either guard spot like Marcus Smart. The rest of his game is so far behind, he'd have to win MIP to restore his rep. Think about it. Rookie sophomore game: he wasn't there, and this was one of the crappiest rookie classes ever. I was at the draft. They did a whole rookie montage and Dunn wasn't on it. He couldn't worry about being a starter anymore because the third stringer was breathing down his back. It went from "could they win ROY 3 years in a row?" to nobody really remembering who the hell he was. That cannot be overlooked at all. None of this is opinion.

All things considered, I couldn't remember a more disappointing rookie season by any player in recent memory. At least with some guys you can say "he's a project" or "he's 19" or "he's behind some great player" or "injuries hurt him." He had none of those excuses. His best glimmer of hope is that when he's on, he's a do-shyt player who fills up the stat sheet.

I remember Chad Ford saying he would be better than Isaiah Thomas day one if the Celtics drafted him
