The 2017 NBA Draft Thread

[95 Vol Alum]

Lakers got the best player in the draft.

Ok, Dobbs4Boston

 

[n_huffhines]

the hats are terrible

 

[95 Vol Alum]

That sure helps the Wolves.

 

[Boston Vol]

Indiana and Boston are engaged in serious talks on a Paul George trade, league sources tell @TheVertical.

Please God yes

 

[zjcvols]

What an absolute steal by Minnesota

 

[Dallasbowlin]

Josh Jackson looking like bozo the clown 😂

 

[TheColdVolTruth]

I think PHX got a steal. I like Jackson's versatility on both ends of the floor.

 

[Boston Vol]

Yeah I don't get it. LeVine coming off a major knee injury, Dunn was a disappointment, and you're just swapping picks.

 

[Boston Vol]

I think PHX got a steal. I like Jackson's versatility on both ends of the floor.

I like the comparison Jalen Rose made between Josh Jackson and Andre Iguodala.

 

[zjcvols]

I'll say it: I really like Markkanen. I like chicagos pick

 

[n_huffhines]

I'm the other way on Markkanen. He's atrocious on D. He's slow. He can't block shots. Not a very good rebounder. He's 7' and can shoot, but he better be elite on offense or he's going to hurt them.

 

[Boston Vol]

Portland trading up for Zach Collins

Portland trading up for Zach Collins

I like it, a lot

 

[Boston Vol]

Jesus those hats are hideous.

 

[BearCat204]

Lakers got the best player in the draft.

Thought Fultz went to Philly?

 

[Dallasbowlin]

Bam will be a bust, imo.

 

[Dallasbowlin]

Og anunoby could fall to okc....

 

[YankeeVol]

I hope Lonzo is a bust

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

I hope Lonzo is a bust

I just wonder if Lavar will be bringing refreshments to practice everyday like a good team mom should.

 

[Dallasbowlin]

Hell yes!

 

[Stoked]

Not going to lie the Kings made some good picks. Fox, Jackson, and Giles. Giles has some great upside. Hield and Jackson could both be lethal from outside.

Jazz traded 2015's #12 and this year's #24 for this year's #13. We're so bad at this:

2011 - Kanter
2011 - Burks
2013 - Burke
2014 - Exum
2015 - Lyles
2016 - Prince?
2017 - Mitchell?

Jesus Christ that's awful.

Golden State basically whips out the checkbook and buys a very usable piece in Jordan Bell. Not fair how well that org is run and very good move post-West. On the other hand, Ainge has recently run his team like he played...hot headed and emotional. Tatum is very talented but limited defensively in a logjammed position playing for a defensive minded coach. All because Josh Jackson shunned them? Could've fleeced Phoenix and dropped only one spot also. Fox would've been a good pick.

Jordan Bell is perfect for GS.

I actually love what the Celtics have done. I'm high on Jaylen Brown and think Tatum could end up the best player from this draft.

Now, if they pay Isaiah anywhere near a max contract, I'll take back what I say.
