    Top 5 Realistic Big Board for Your Team

    Via DraftExpress' Matt Kamalsky:   "Asked to fill a substantial role in Cal's space-starved offense, Brown did most of his damage playing off the ball spotting up or filling lanes in transition, but was also granted significant opportunities to create for himself off the bounce in the half...

    Top 5 Realistic Big Board for Your Team

    fair, and to be clear I wasn't saying that's what he is now I was saying he could become a Steven Adams type of defender in terms of how you could use him in your lineup/what he allows you to do on defense   as we've discussed he needs to add strength for his post defense but he could be a...

    his defensive versatility is, he can be a big man in your lineup but defend just as well on the perimeter as the interior

    Bender>>>>Jaylen but you are right that they're two entirely different prospects. I meant long-term SF isn't Bender's positions but yeah right now he has work to do on his interior defense including needing to add size/strength. But once that happens he'll be a complete and great defender, imo a...

    2016 NBA Draft Bold Predictions

    I'd consider that bold but I do actually like the idea, Pistons really really don't need their pick to contribute right now and he has the upside to be a great PF in the SVG system next to Andre

    Official 2016 SI NBA Mock Draft Discussion Thread

    Yeah I think any of the bigs projected to go late 1st or top part of the 2nd could swap spots/go earlier or slip into the 2nd, they're all close enough that I could see different teams having completely different rankings of them     He went 8 here and that's probably as high as he'll possibly...

    what team is this for? you don't have your favorite teams listed besides the Sharks   still think you're too high on Jaylen but welcome on board the Bender bandwagon we've been waiting for you and yeah imo he'll be just as immediately ready as Jaylen if not much more, a much better fit for the...

    2016 MLB Season Thread

    Michael Fulmer (the main guy the Tigers got for Cespedes) exits after 6 scoreless innings against the Yankees. So 0 runs allowed over his last 4 starts/28.1 innings and 1 run over his last 5 starts/34.1 innings   The only other pitcher with 4 straight starts with 0 runs allowed and 3 or fewer...

    Nola's 2016 NBA Mock - V4

    Yeah to each his own/agree to disagree on the quality of the Pistons wings players as I'd said earlier. And that's not what I meant by the first round pick comment, I meant they're more likely to use that pick on someone who would be the backup PG or the backup PF/C and roll with current backups...

    Nola's 2016 NBA Mock - V4

    I'm not saying I want that duo to lead the league in minutes I'm just saying that remaining 10-16 minutes can and almost certainly will be handled by backups (the three they have now, likely veterans from free agency in the future) not another first-round pick that was the point I was making. I...

    Nola's 2016 NBA Mock - V4

    Wasn't trying to hijack this thread but alright: 1- I think if Morris wasn't on the team/was injured SVG would start Tobias at SF and find a new starting PF not the other way around 2- KCP did have more volume than you'd want from him especially on that 3pt% but he's only starting to learn how...

    lol agree to strongly disagree with basically that entire post   Aside from the Pistons pick, good mock, I could see almost all of these picks possibly happening although I do think 9 is a little high for Sabonis and I'm not sure about the Celtics taking Ellenson especially after taking Davis

    Nola's 2016 NBA Mock - V4

    KCP is the SG, Morris who you didn't mention is the SF, Tobias Harris played the PF basically out of necessity but not sure that's his best position going forward, and then Stanley off the bench at SG-SF. And then Meeks, and Reggie Bullock who SVG raved about all year and played really well when...

    I'm not saying that's bad value for him, even a little bit, but it's a really poor fit given that they already have as many wings (who were contributors last year or in the case of Meeks are expected to be) as they can possibly carry on the roster, including their starting SG and two starting...
