Draft News Thread

[Pugz]

but draft day is when theyll happen. youll get more ideas on who will be there for your team and what not.

 

[The Young One]

I guess Jonas is the guy at 4 for cleveland.

 

[elcheato]

I think it's the right pick baring D-Will falling to #4. Kyrie and him could be a great pick and roll combo for a long time if we develop him correctly.

But honestly I'd be okay if we end up with Kanter as well. I like both him and Jonas, and even Vesely but that's more of a stretch.

 

[The Young One]

I thought for sure kanter would be the guy at 4..but they seem to like Jonas plus the lithuanian connection only helps.

 

[RipCity32]

Starting to pull for Thompson being our pick more than anyone else.
Really loving what I'm seeing and hearing from this kid.

 

[The Young One]

He's a pf..same as greg

 

[RipCity32]

Greg plays center.

 

[The Young One]

Eww...I guess that would work then.

 

[Yankees2772]

Greg plays center.

... Poorly.

 

[RipCity32]

How do you figure he plays center poorly? lol.

He's worse than his opponents... Chris Wilcox is better.

 

[RipCity32]

I'm not a stat junkie. I watched nearly every game just to watch Greg Monroe, and mainly for that SOLE reason.
I know enough to know he was a productive center and will only improve as he puts on more weight/muscle.

 

[DJT]

I still think Kanter at 4, but haven't really heard much out of the Cavs camp. But they did work out Kanter twice...

 

[elcheato]

Well they want to trade up to #2, and I guess the Wolves really like Kanter and want to trade down, so it could be a smoke screen of the Cavs acting like they are really interested in Kanter.

 

[RipCity32]

I hope the Cavs take Jonas, just so it means we won't lol.

 

[DJT]

Seems like there could be a lot of trades on draft day, but somehow I won't be surprised if their is only like 1 or 2.

 

[Hurricane Season]

What date is the draft, BTW?

 

[DJT]

23rd...next thursday.

 

[Mooche]

I'm game if the Raptors can snag Knight or Kanter. That would be great at number five IMO.

 

[RipCity32]

Starting to hear Vesely to Detroit is a possibility.
Though I don't hope it happens, out of all the euros in this draft, Vesely would be the one leaving me the least irate, if we picked him.
