Event 2018 NBA Draft

Hunter has a very smooth game, the problem is that he's a PF in SF's body. I'm not sure he has the lateral quickness to be a wing at the NBA level.

Bamba isn't getting enough hype, I think he should be in the running for the top pick.

Carter and Bagley at Duke is kind of like the twin towers. Its an interesting crop this year for sure. A team might sneak in the Michael Porter Jr. and he could very well have #1 pick type talent.

 

@JDC ...thanks for the video. VERY active feet on defense but does tend to get knocked back or overpowered down low. Not much of a shooter yet but athletic around the rim.

 

I wonder if Miles Bridges could drop a couple spots. He’s got a lot to work with but has struggled at times this year. He reminds me of a young Tobias Harris.

Jarred Vanderbilt is the other forward who might be available around or pick but I’m not too high on him. Both him and Lonnie Walker just seem to raw to me.

 

De'Anthony Melton is the next Donovan Mitchell

 

Agree, but with better defense. That kid is a stud.

 

Bones do you think Troy Brown will go? They have him ranked in the middle of the first round.... what the hell? How the hell is he rated that high?

 

Maybe. He's very overrated right now. If he went he'd be a 2nd round pick.

 

Hoping he stays. He'd be great as a foil to Louis King. Just don't understand why his agent would blow smoke up his ass. He's nowhere near to being a finished product.

 

Yea I think he’s slotted where he is based purely off potential and maybe a bit of hype. He should probably return but if a team is willing to take him late in the first he might go.

 

Gary Trent jr would be a good pick up if he fell close to us.

 

I don't think so. Can't do enough off the dribble or defend at a high kennel and isn't a great enough shooter to make up for it.

 

We will see, I see him as a Devin Booker type. If he fell to around 18-22 I'd love to land him.

 

If we could get a second round pick I'd like to get Bonzie Colson.

 

A 6'5 PF... No thanks

 

6' 11.5" wingspan

 

It sure seems like this draft drops off a god damn cliff past about the 18th pick.

 

Which is average for a PF...

 

Rui Hachimura should be lottery pick. Not much he can't do, has all the physical tools. I'd love to have him. If he stays another year he could have a breakout type year and be a top 3 pick.

 

You're judgement would be biased would it? Serioously, I love Rui Hachimura. The flow of his game and his transition buckets are great. What's the name of that assistant coach who discovered him? Best talent scout in the game.
