2016 NBA Draft Bold Predictions

[jonathanlambert33]

Who has bold predictions for this years draft?

Mine is, Bender falls out of the top 5.

I guess its Jaylen Brown being a top 4 lock? I don't consider that bold but apparently all of you do

 

[jonathanlambert33]

A lock? That's incredibly bold lol

 

[bosoxlover12]

I think he goes to Phoenix if the Celtics haven't already taken him

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I don't think Phoenix takes him. I think they'll either go big or pick someone that is dynamic and go Warriors south and have an amazing shooting combo guard backcourt in Booker and Murray. Or maybe you aren't GS, but you can be Portland with those two.

 

[Boogie]

Murray falls outside top 7.

 

[Stray32]

Yeah Jaylen being a lock for top 4 is very bold
 
Mine is Deyonta Davis going in the top 10

 

[Teagz]

Is Chriss going top 5 bold?
 
If so, I'll go with that.

 

[Pugz]

pistons take thon

idk if thats bold but yea

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Is Chriss going top 5 bold?
 
If so, I'll go with that.

I don't think that's bold. There's been some talk of him going inside the top 3.

 

[bosoxlover12]

there was like one or two reports. it's smoke to me that Chriss would go #3 to Boston. If anything it's more likely the Celtics try to move up to get him if he falls past Toronto at 9

 

[jonathanlambert33]

That would certainly qualify as some

 

[bosoxlover12]

I mean it's as legitimate as Chad Ford's report that the Celtics will draft Dunn because Isaiah doesn't need to be part of their plan next year -- despite Isaiah being by far the best player on a team looking to contend

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I could see Isaiah not being in their plans at a certain point. I don't think that's far fetched at all.

 

[bosoxlover12]

Maybe 3 years down the line. Ford said for this year, which is just idiotic beyond belief

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I don't really believe that either. I think it would be kind of smart for the Celtics to float Thomas out there in trade talks when his value is at its highest. He's not a guy that will ever be a major piece on a contender. But maybe you take that Celtics doo doo package and throw Isaiah in there, who knows what that could fetch you.

 

[Stray32]

pistons take thon

idk if thats bold but yea

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

 

[Senators26]

Murray falls outside top 7.

God if he can fall to the Raps.. Idk even know what'll I'll do. The things a Canadian star being on the Raptors would do to this country is be insane.

im not huge on thon but a lot of our fan base is. id rather take a pick based on potential and fit for the future and groom them along slowly. if thats thon, id support the pick.
