    Ben Simmons to the Sixers. Oops sorry.

    I'm pretty hyped as well, you are not alone. First time in a long time that we are participating in the Draft.

    Well the first two picks have already been announced..
    WE live in a society today where the draft happens prior to draft day

    I actually want jaylen brown and don't want buddy hield. What do people have against brown? His numbers were bad because of the system he played in, and he addresses some of our biggest needs. But i 110% agree on the young vet trade. I would go ballistic.

    Also can we please not freak out on Dell if he doesn't draft the player you want at 39 or 40? They are 2nd round picks for a reason. I really want to get Patrick McCaw but if Dell passes on him then it's not the end of the world. I'm excited for this for the first time in a while!

    Also when people say don't trade for a young vet, are you okay with a trade like the Tyreke and 6 for Avery Bradley, 16, and 31 (or something along those lines)? I'm okay with that but not okay with 6th for a young vet straight up

    1. I don't have any preferences for the second rounders

    2. Yeah I could live with that. Bradley is All-NBA defense and ever improving on the offensive end.

    How can you be so certain that his numbers were bad because of the system? He is a great athlete and has an NBA body. After that, it is unknown. He did not shine in any aspect of his game and looked lost a lot. I think he has looked better in his workouts, so that may be a positive.

    Today is the day Adrian Wojnarowski and Chad Ford come together like reverse mitosis, forming the ultimate basketball annoyance super-villain.

    That's a way cooler reference than the DBZ one I was going to make.

    My body is not ready

    Somehow I've gone from wanting Hield, to Dunn, to Murray and now Hield again!

    There's no pleasing me

    Also, that's how octopi talk. They squibber. Yes, it's a word. Shut up.

    Bender, Brown....Murray.

    I think Dunn will be gone. I don't want Heild.

    If we can't get the three at the top, I'd trade #6 to DEN for Nurkic, #15 + #19.

    Draft Luwawu or Valentine at #15.

    Package Asik + #19 to BK for Thad Young or draft one of Ellenson, Prince, Korkmaz or Johnson with #19.

    Not sure why people aren't high on Hield. After the failed Gordon experiment, you would think we'd be all in for a top notch two guard. Either he or Murray would be great fits here assuming Dunn is off the board.

    Also, if they take Dunn, are people saying the Jrue will move to the 2 spot or does he become trade bait? What about Reke as well?

    Dunn isn't falling past Minnesota. We're going to end up with Hield most likely

    That's what I'm hearing as well. I wonder what they do with Rubio.

  22. #22
    We need to keep all options open because you never know what can happen on draft night. I'm excited too and I don't know who I want us to get.

  23. #23
    I'm hyped.

    Will be watching at home while doing massive amounts of paperwork.

    But there's really more ways they can go that will make me happy than ways to make me unhappy......I shouldn't type that out loud.....that's how we get bad trades...

    Good positive energy.

    But also, yo mama's fat.

    I feel like Celtics saying Dunn is who they want is just a smoke screen to receive more for the 3rd pick.

    I would be fine with Hield.
