The NBA Draft Thread

[Moheezy]

Jackson looks like the nephew of Greg Oden, LeBron's father.

The real
question is Kriss Dunn better than Tyus Jones?

Tyus needs those mins Dunn and Ricky are getting...spit it down 3 ways

 

[cruzair13]

Dunn hasn't gotten his shot with iso Wiggins and KAT offense and also spending most of his PT with the second unit.

He's shown flashes but not consistent and still loses the ball.

Dunn's Strengths coming out of the league were getting to the basket and an elite disruptive defender with his long arms.

His weakness is of course that jumper ala Rajon Rondo.


oh did i mention i graduated from Providence so im bias af?.

Trying to stay positive for him but he has been awful but not signing off on him yet and hopefully get his shot when ricky is moved for Mozgov and Deng.... haha

 

[osh kosh bosh]

I wish Dunn all the success in the world but It's getting to the point in todays nba...



if you can't shoot; you can't play.


Same fear I have with Justin Jackson but at least just isn't 49 years old.

So why is Ricky getting praise in here?

yes ... Tyus is a baller. Seeing him play in college was a thing of beauty .. He ran the offense and when needed he dug dip and deliver offensively ... Give him a shot.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

So why is Ricky getting praise in here?

There are exceptions to every rule.

and Ricky Rubio, super duper elite passer, good defender elite BBall IQ just barley manages to make for not being able to shoot and people are stil trying to run him out of town.

While we're on the subject of non-shooting players (point guards in particular): https://theringer.com/well-never-see-another-rajon-rondo-chicago-bulls-nba-b1059da62edf#.mxuq9r6i8

The Ball brothers dad is so damn annoying

 

[Moheezy]

Yeah, well, my (Filipino) mom said I was better than Jeremy Lin back in his NYK days.

Parents will be parents.

[Vincent Van Goat]

This new two way contract thing doesn't sound good for the player.. idk

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Good to hear Fultz is playing tonight...

It's stuff like this that makes me legit upset:

Tatum turning the corner at the right time

 

[everysingletime]

Not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I died at dude making fun of LaMelo's cherry picking

 

[206to813]

This is gonna be one of the worst drafts ever

In your opinion, what are the three worst in the past 20-25 years

This year's is prob on par with 00, 06, 13. Wouldn't be surprised to see only 1 or 2 ever make an all star team

My comments from June :x

 

[B Sox]

Really enjoy watching Josh Jackson play. Hope Boston gets him if we don't get #1.

 

[Moheezy]

Jackson is by far the best fit for Boston out of everyone in the lotto.

 

[buc em]

Wouldn't the Jaylen Brown pick be kinda pointless if you draft Josh Jackson this year too?

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Not to mention how are they gonna find time for them after they sign Gordon hayward

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Seems redundant but being how the game is going smaller, they could theoretically play at the same time in crunch time

I feel that they're playing Brown at PF at times already? Or at least I thought so

Being how versatile Jackson is helps him fit in that much easier. Both can probably play PF eventually and slide all the way down to the 2 if they develop their jumpers
