Following 2016 potential draftees

Probably Beasley and Korkmaz.

I'd add Baldwin. Not outstandingly athletic, but combined with his length, athletic enough.

Unless a guy we really love is available at 12, this is a great draft to trade down.

I think from about 10 or 12 to 32 there's not much gap between the players. Tons of good roster depth, which we desperately need.

I think it was CL who mentioned him earlier, but Hernangomez is a nice prospect. Good shooter, doing very well for his age, struggled defensively but I think that's mainly due to inexperience. Kinda slow laterally. Not sure if he could play with Lyles or not. Kinda reminds me of Illyasova.

I agree. They either need to identify somebody in the 3-10 range that they think will be a star and trade up, or trade down and get more picks.

Bembry could be insurance hot Hayward/Hood, otherwise I prefer Prince.

Cal freshman Jaylen Brown worked out for the Celtics this week, but according to a source at the workout, it was Danuel House who stole the show, matching up nicely against Brown and showing he has the potential to be a steal as a 3-and-D wing in the second round.

Who is Danuel House?

My most important things in a prospect is GREAT three point shooting first and athleticism (mostly speed and quickness) second.

Who has the best combo of those two things in this draft in everyone's opinion?

Deandre Bembry

Bembry is a terrible 3pt shooter though. If you are looking for a ready made 3pt shooter with athletic ability, you would like Luwawu/Prince/Baldwin/Korkmaz/Beasley

I am a fan of this strategy... A random thought I had...

If we were to move the pick now and trade back before draft night would it have more value because of the chance of someone taking a draft night slide (say Jalen Brown or Chriss) or does it have more value to wait it out until the draft starts when we know who is available. The trades only seem to happen on draft night when GMs see who is available... would be interesting to see if someone like Denver would trade back blindly with the hopes that they get a guy they targeted with the seventh pick.

Would be interesting to make the call now and tell Denver hey we think there is a 20% this guy slides... we will flip the 12 for 15 and 19 right now and let you take your chances... If the guy slides on draft night we absolutely won't do a deal with you.

The reason to do this would be because if its Luwawu or Ellenson available I am not sure Denver would move both of those picks for 12. If Brown or Chriss was available I wouldn't want the Jazz to trade the pick for 15 and 19. Just a random thought.

Texas A&M SF. He scored 32 points in a game vs Kentucky.

I want to load up on assets for the 2017 draft. Call up Dallas, they don't have a pick this year, offer to trade our first this year for their first next year. Dallas needs to start getting younger and they might as well add a guy that gets some experience playing with a future hall of famer. We could use the roster spot in FA to bring in a bench guy that is ready to contribute from day 1 while adding to our 2017 horde. We would have 2 mid round picks next year plus GSW pick.

House definitely has potential as a 3D guy. Reminds me a bit of Justin Anderson from last year. Great athlete, NBA body, good size for a wing, didn't shoot it worth a **** his senior year which is why he's falling under the radar. If he can be consistent with the three, he's legit.
