Harden gets a bed rep on D for his highlights that are shown, he played harder on D this year and took a step up in leadership. Kawhi doesn't put up Harden offensive or rebounding numbers.

That's not true at all. As someone who went to more than a few Rockets games and someone that's around Rockets fans in general everyday he hasn't changed defensively. Just one case I watched him get picked clean by Stephen curry and while the rest of his teammates got back Harden never even got close to half court instead he stead down on the other end crying that it should have been a foul.

Well from the multiple games I watched, I would disagree and consider the changes he made this year were a huge part they were +14 wins this season from last.

Man I thought Boston had it won when they went up 87-82. There haven't been many good games in the playoffs this year, I'm glad we got one tonight.

Golden State looks shook.

No way, the NBA won't let their ratings take that hit lol.

Funny but it's actually true.

Pop going off and I agree. Zaza's play was incredibly dirty and I hope the Spurs send someone at one of Golden State's guys to retaliate.

Clyde wins the best dressed award at the NBA Draft Lottery.

Embiid should be at every draft lottery regardless of where his team picks.

Celtics get the 1. Lakers with the 2.

So consensus is Celts take Fultz? I'm not sure if that's the best guy or the guy they need.

I could see Celtics taking Jackson or tatum

I don't see any way Celts don't take BPA. That has to be Fultz. It's going to take a couple years to fully be a star on a top 5 squad. By then Thomas will be in his 30's.

Honestly I want the Celtics to take Lonzo Ball to watch Lavar freak out. 

It would be a stupid pick and it won't happen though.

Is Fultz really BPA though? Idk. I wasn't impressed by Ingram last year, not too impressed by Fultz either.

8-10 guys to me are all near equal at the top. I don't see much separation amongst them.

The Celts could draft him and then trade him to the Pacers for PG.  Old man Ball would be bouncing off every backboard in the country.

I think him and Ball are on that clear top tier. Ingram's body was going to hold him back. Fultz doesn't have that issue. I was very impressed by him individually. I don't see any way he isn't 1st.

Fultz is the consensus most potential of the group.
