The NBA Draft Thread

[ballinsam23]

I still like the Lamar Odom comparison best.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Dray and Blake are both great facilitators but Ben Simmons is on track to blow them out of the water in that regard

Blake also has developed into more of a post player so it's not an easy comparison. Odom is the better comparison imo

 

[addict4sneakers]

Maybe not on here, but I've been saying he is skinny Phoenix Boris Diaw.

Simmons is Grant Hill/Jason Kidd hybrid.

Aint nobody ever played like him at the 4 position EVER. No comparisons there.

Lamar Odom?

I think he has more "pop" than Odom.

Is this where summer league games are discussed?

 

[ballinsam23]

Ron Baker's defense is very good.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Good for Christian Wood getting his head on straight, not getting drafted seems to have humbled him, playing hard every possession.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Summer league discussion is all over the place lol

As long as he keeps if together, I don't see how he doesn't play 10 years.

Thon Maker debuting in 10 minutes on NBA TV.

 

[youngthundercat]

Thon out there gunning and looking bad

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Don't say I didn't warn y'all about Thon Maker.

He's a far away.

 

[pmatic]

Whose bright idea was it to make Brogdon a PG?

 

[youngthundercat]

Don't say I didn't warn y'all about Thon Maker.

He's a far away.

yea he won't see any legit mins this year

 

[youngthundercat]

Rashad Vaughn should still be in college bc he stinks

 

[Arthur Shelby]

 

[Brownstone]

Rashad Vaughn should still be in college bc he stinks

Forgot he was in the league

Obviously a better passer, ball handler and can use his right hand unlike LO

But i think Prime LO is Ben floor *shrugs*

 

[ballinsam23]

Prime LO is Ben's floor? LOL

 

[dacomeup]

 

[awwsome]

Prime LO is Ben's floor? LOL

****** in here wilding.

 

[awwsome]

Simmons is Blake/Grant Hill/Magic.

 

[Brownstone]

Thought the wolves played today

 

[pmatic]

How much footage did BallIsLife have to go through to find enough footage of Thon making jump shots?

 

[ValarMorghulis]

Prime LO is Ben's floor? LOL

****** in here wilding.

Y'all acting like I said something crazy....

LO best year was 17/9/4 and a 29% 3pt shooter.... if Ben reaches his potential, those stats are his baseline in the new NBA. 4 assts a night are probably half of what he's capable of.

Stand by my comment.

*shrugs*

I'm high on him. Obviously.
