Thread: Draft Prospects Discussion

    Heild is fine. He will still go top 5. He pretty much pulled a DWade, and his career will start in Wade fashion (top 5 pick). I just hope he is there when we pick because I believe in him...unless we trade our pick for Jimmy Butler.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    Would such a trade be a good thing or a bad thing?

    I know how I'll feel...

    I would like that trade, but we would obviously have to give up our more than just our 1st. Who else would we send to Chicago? Jrue??

    anyone they want not named AD

    AD and Jimmy butler are 2 of the best 2 way players in the league.

    Butler would be lethal w AD

    Against Detroit tonight he had

    28 points
    17 rebounds
    12 assists
    3 steals
    2 blocks

    That game, for Hield, will only serve to make him work harder going forward. I can't tell you how bad I want that kid on the Pels. At worst, he ends up a solid starter.

  7. #782
    I see the draft going

    Philly- Ben
    Lakers- Ingram
    Suns- Bender
    Celtics- Hield
    Wolves-Murray
    Pels- Brown or Dunn



    1-6

    So do the Wolves which is why I think they choose Murray over Dunn.

    Tyler Ulis. How good is this kid? Reminds me so much of CP3. If we can find a way to draft him and Hield, I would be ecstatic. Back court of the future with Jrue as the 6th man.

    I will be happy with any of 6 mentioned above. Not named Brown...
    Still do not know who I will choose at 7. When lottery will not be in our favour.
    Probably will trade down...

    Guys, the wolves have their shooting guard.

    You know, the guy currently averaging 17 points and shooting 48% from both 2 and 45% from 3 since the allstar break?

    If they are above us they take Dunn. The player they aren't married too right now is Rubio. KAT, Wiggins and Lavine are their core right now.

    I think they may consider Bender too. They've been looking for a permanent pairing for KAT and Bender has the potential to be able to play both inside and outside and he fits the age they're looking for in their development cycle. Dunn obviously makes a lot of sense too, but I don't think it's a definite.

    I dont even care.

    Valentine or Luwawu

    I think Pheonix, Minnesota and Boston are more concerned with their forward positions than their guards. Wouldn't be surprised if they both passed on Hield and Murray. But maybe my opinion is based somewhat on hope, haha.

    Phoenix may actually trade Bledsoe and/or Knight which would change things a bit. But I think the pressure will be on them to make some concrete decisions in their backcourt finally.

    Sabonis, Rabb, Poetlt all have potential to go top 5 still, if one team sees a star or perfect fit.

    I wouldn't mind trading the pick to Denver for two of their picks if we could target Marquese Chriss (combo forward/amazing athlete/decent shooting range/only played ball 5 years) and Denzel Valentine with them. There is actually as bunch of guard talent in this draft outside of Murray and Hield we could consider further down the draft:

    Luwawu
    Baldwin
    Beasley
    Korkmaz
    Malachi Richardson's stock may have risen over tourney.

    But for me Hield should be #1 priority along with getting rid of anyone who brought the team down this year to the point the team of scrubs we're fielding now is winning more games than our 'best' team.

    Let's add Thon Maker into the mix.

  17. #792
    Where does everybody think Thon Maker will be drafted? Lottery??

  18. #793
    Thon Maker? Didn't think he was eligible until next year. Did he declare? Is there a link?

    honestly i'd have no problem with this, and plus with valentine's new measurements, he is plenty big enough to play SF.

  20. #795
    Sabonis has really climbed the board. I looked at a few draft sites 3 weeks ago, and he was a mid first rounder. They made it to the second weekend and he was a late lottery pick. Most sites now have him in the top
    7.

    I'm not against the idea of drafting him, but man, if we could have his dad in his prime that would be amazing. Arvydas was amazing.

    You could check it out on Bleacherreport.com or just google Thon Maker.

  22. #797
    Maker is a less sexy Hasheem Thabeet.

    What a blunder that pick was. They could have had Currey or Harden.

    Well I'd love to have an Aussie on the Pels. I'd take Thon with a 2nd round pick.

  24. #799
    - Simmons
    - Ingram
    - Dunn
    - Hield
    - Bender

    If the above is off the board and we're picking 6th... I want to trade with DEN for #10 and #15 and draft the following.

    #10 - Johnson or Luwawu
    #15 - Korkmaz

    2nd round

    - Hernangomez
    - Ellis
