    Why would you have a "draft party" in a draft where we don't even have a 2nd round pick?

    Are you an nba fan? The draft is like christmas morning to me. Just thought it would be fun to meet up with other forum members and watch the draft.

    More fun than watching it at home with the wife who doesnt care about dragan bender or ben simmons.

    Besides, as olshey has stated, they will be active in trying to make something happen. Paul allen is the owner remember?

    I love draft night. I tell my wife it's a personal holiday for me, and she's not allowed to bug me. I'm mostly interested in what the Blazers might do, and you never know what that might be. Even this year.

    Have fun guys!

    :cheers:

    I'm always interested in seeing the entire draft order. I like to follow guys and think about where they should/will land. I'm really interested & excited to see where sabonis goes this year!

    I think sabonis goes to toronto at 9.

    They will have the lithuanian twin towers!

    He wasn't in the top 10 of any mock b4 the tournament. I definitely think he's a top 10 pick, could be a top 5 IMO but I'm not sure he will go that high. Toronto at 9 is a smart pick.

    A few predictions:
    4 - Phoenix drafts Marquess Chriss
    6 - Dragan Bender falls to the Pelicans
    9 - Raptors select Domantas Sabonis
    11 - Magic select Skal Labissiere
    21 - Hawks will not pass on T. Prince
    22 - Hornets select DeAndre Bembry
    25 - Clippers draft Brice Johnson
    27 - Raptors select Thon Maker
    29 - Spurs select Malcolm Brogdon
    30 - Warriors select Malik Beasley

    Let's see how this looks after draft night

    Why would you post in a "basketball forum" if you didn't like basketball?

    Okay I was thinking that's when the draft starts but I guess the process starts at 5, 4 works for me.
