Following potential 2015 draftees

[Dr. Jones]

Remember when Xthren/Gamer/Whoever he is now said he would give his left nut for Darius Miller?

Darius Miller effing blows.

Tainted goods.

Also remember when PKM said he was the most athletic UK player.

Tainted goods.

BUt PKM said he won't make it in the NBA because he doesn't have it.

Who's available in the 5-9 range that could be a Star ??? I get a feeling we'll finish in that range.

If you take a look at the latest batch of young wing "stars" a lot of them have been late lottery or later drafts picks.

Gordon Hayward (9th)

Klay Thompson (11th)

Jimmy Butler (2nd round)

Paul George (10th)

Chandler Parsons (2nd round)

Demar Derozan (9th)

Kahwi Leonard (15th)


Bradley Beal is the only recent guy to be a top pick who seems destined for All-Star games.

That's true. The 6 - 10 range seems to be a good place to get wings. Teams usually push for bigs and PGs at the top of the draft. Tmac was a #8 pick. Kobe a #13, I think. Rudy Gay was a #8 pick. Steph Curry dropped to #7, though he's a PG now.

If the Jazz are picking in the 7 - 10 range, they should get a good player.

Okafor, Towns, Mudiay...

Who would you add to this team, if we got lucky in the lottery?

I was totally unimpressed in the first couple of games I've seen from Okafor and Towns this year. Okafor is quite possibly as big of a liability in D as Enes is, but his offense is great and he can actually pass out of the post - something that was supposed to be a weakness(maybe still is and the few games I saw were an anomaly). Towns offense has been lacking, but he flashed some potential in D. I haven't seen Mydiay play professionally.

Right now, at this point with the little information I have, if we got lucky I'd probably try to package that pick and trade it for an all-star type of player. If I had to make the choice, I'd probably choose Towns...

How recent do you mean?? Butler is already there when it comes to an all star type player.

Like the last 5 years of drafts.

Mother **** you!

Not at all.

Only a matter of time until Booker is in the starting lineup in place of those scrub Harrison twins.

They won't alter the starting lineup because you don't wanna risk the Harrisons going berzerk. But if they have a bad game they wont see the floor much in the last 10 minutes.

Butler was the 30th pick the year Rose got MVP.

Reported for profanity.

Don't over-think and just pick the guy that has the greatest physical impact on the game. I know little about Mudiay, but unless he's on his own tier as a player, I wouldn't reach for a PG at the top of the draft, especially with Exum already here. There are some really good All Star-caliber players in the second tier--Hezonjia, Winslow, Johnson--if we were trading back for some reason.
