Following 2016 potential draftees

This Charlotte trade has to be like Hawes&Lamb for Belly and 22 right? Woj I need more... this can't be true.
 
Givony's initial hunch on Brown going top 4 was right all along. Too bad he ceded to pressure and dropped him to 8 near the end, but he still deserves some props.
 
Does anyone have any decent information on Bolomboy, Paige, or Wallace? Didn't pay much attention to draft prospects this year, especially 2nd rounders. Would've preferred to draft Qi at #42 instead of trading the pick as I was impressed from the little that I saw of him. Seemed like a worthwhile project at that point in the draft.

Also don't understand why we didn't just select D.Jackson at #42 if we planned on drafting another PG (or in our case PG's), although I admittedly know very little about him (or the PG's we drafted) outside of the fact he was viewed as a potential 1st rounder.

I realize that none of this likely has any significance, just curious of what the more draft savvy posters make of our decisions in the 2nd rd.
 
Sixers get quite a haul with Simmons, Korkmaz and Luwawu in the first round. Maybe people don't want to admit it, but the Sixers' tank-a-thon might actually pay off if Embiid can play.

Embiid
Noel
Simmons
Luwawu

The Kings traded Marquese Chriss for this huge Greek project center Papagiannis at 13. I like the Skal pick-up late in the first round though. They also got Malachi Richardson. So overall, I guess they did well with the upside picks.
 
Local sources say there continues to be a great effort by the Utah Jazz to move Trey Burke. Surely someone can get together here.



also this...

A few minutes before the draft, Trey Burke's camp isn't sure what will happen. They are hoping for clarity tonight

Brilliant decision to let him sleeping on the bench in the second half of the season. It was the Jazz fault if he has zero trade value.

For everybody's sake I hope they trade Cousins soon. The Kings are going nowhere fast and it's simply a bad fot for both sides.


Blow it up and start over with this new crew.
