The Official 2017 NBA Draft Talk Thread

[tremonthustler1]

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

The fanfare he had was crazy by most people (keep in mind these same people are now giving the Bulls an F for this draft). His 2 summer league games it was like it's over! The job is his (keep in mind, they lost both games he played, he wasn't running point, and they proceed to reach the Summer League finals without him, but I digress) I was reading shyt like "he'll take over the PG spot in 20 games." Any time he ever had a good half of any game (the Clipper game especially) it was like "now it's time to hand over the reins" and stupid shyt like that. All Thibs wanted was an excuse to start Dunn and Dunn just couldn't prove his worth. This trade was turned down once already and Dunn never played a second, so you know it hurt to have to pull the trigger now.


I wish him well and he can only get better in Chicago. God help them if he doesn't.

@KevJ doesn't want to give up anything at all to get something, keeps talking about that Memphis pick like it's not protected until 2021. If he signs an extension they would be stupid not to get Tatum or Brown from them.

The damn Bulls held onto the Kings draft pick like it was gold, it never conveyed a first rounder, shyt converted to a 2nd rounder after years of them not including it in deals

Celtics think the Pacers are just supposed to just give him up for some highly protected bs and scrubs....I'd just assume make him play the season out and walk away from nothing as he becomes the tank commander or wait until the trade deadline.

 

[NatiboyB]

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

why do you assume hayward wants to go to boston over Miami or staying in Utah where he could make more money and is the face of the franchise?

Because Brad Stevens coached Hayward at Butler.

@Malta talk to me breh

No @Brozay don't do it, please don't do it, cause you make that comparo and we all go through it

He's talented, but there's only one Kristaps in the league.

They aren't getting Tatum or brown

They also aren't getting Ingram

Wtf are you talking about? Who has better offers than what I presented?

George going to the Celtics is contingent on him signing an extension, therefore the price should be higher than just Crowder/Bradley + Memphis 2019 pick which is protected 1-8 How is that garbage ass deal better than nothing? It's not even a Nets pick or Clippers pick, but a pick that has almost no chance of being conveyed in 2019.

The Lakers aren't offering anything because he's going there if he hits free agency, he wouldn't be going to the Celtics any other way but a trade.

Markkanen looks better at slashing than he really is because of weaker college defenses + being an elite shooter.

Can't wait till summer league

I'm more worried about what he offers besides scoring

 

[VegetasHairline]

Same here breh. Kings might have a chance to win the summer league chip.

 

[ShoryukenHaduken]

Probably the same. I went to four last season because it's so convenient with them playing Downtown now.

One game I took light rail

I'm about to get a Giles jersey rooting for that dude esp since he's got the most potential put of everyone drafted for them....trade koufus move Mali to sf so he can get min behind JJ and the kings are moving forward
