NBA Draft Thread

[KingPG21 6,580]

Petteway, Wells, and Newbill all deserved to be drafted imo over any of these project 20 year old randoms from European countries that will never see a second of an NBA game 90% of the time.

And Petteway would? I guess since the 6ers are in perpetual tank mode now he could probably find some time, but dude isn't really any good

Among many, Andrew Harrison, Trevor Lacey, and Cliff Alexander are early entries who go undrafted

Andrew got picked, Aaron didn't.

I think Saric is like another two years away from the NBA. That's what I heard the other day

Yes, Saric will come over for the 2016-2017 season when the salary cap rises. I also never trust these foreign dudes.

Mario Hezonja will be good for the Magic. He can shoot and is an unreal athlete. Lots of upside. Orlando will have a super young, explosive and exciting team this year looks like.

Pretty excited for Vic. He'll have a super talented team around him.

Best part is that he got a shooter on the team, allowing him to play his game along with Elfrid Payton at the point. They'll be interesting in two years.

Is anyone else concerned that Scott Skiles is Vic's coach?

Should we be? I don't know much about him. He hasn't coached for a few years.

Wow. Hard to believe Alexander goes undrafted.

[Alford Bailey 12,336]

Once again Cal and co. at the draft supporting his guys and getting his mug on tv. Big reason why they get the recruits.

Petteway and Wells have found a summer league team. Waiting to hear on Newbill. These guys can play at NBA level. After watching them this long I kind of want to see how they do.

Eh. There have been much better players not make it. Petteway doesn't have the athleticism to make it. His combine looked disappointing.

Did we watch the same thing? He made great passes during the white vs blue game and seemed like he belonged. He's a tall guard who can almost do it all. I'm not saying he's a god, I'm saying I believe he deserves a shot.

I still really like the Myles Turner pick. You can still win by going big. Clevelands problem in the Finals was trying to match the smaller lineup instead of staying big. Hibbert will hopefully get moved. West may be gone. Turner can play as a stretch 4. He's obviously much bigger than West and looks to be a better defensive player. Hard to say on Young. He could score at Oregon. The Turner pick I'd good. But I don't think Bird (just like MJ abs Zeke) is any good at his job.

he'll get a shot. But he's not much of an NBA player. Better players have failed. Players just like him often fail to make it.

Neither of us can be right for sure so time will tell.

I just read that next summer is what the Sixers are expecting so that sounds right

Mario Hezonja is no project. He's a monster.

[Zeebruh 57]

Aaron Gordon will be healthy this year too for the Magic. They might contend for that 8 seed in the East. (might be a stretch idk lol)

Did we ever find out why Crean was a no-show for two of his players going in the top 4?
