What's new

Following 2016 potential draftees

Most teams arent as prepared for the draft as Utah. I suspect a lot of teams are probably behind the 8-ball on a prospect like Thon who many didnt foresee him declaring this year.
 
Givony:

What will help Thon Maker achieve his full potential is the fact that he's a tireless worker, has a big time motor & has very high character

Talent + motor/work ethic = yes plz
 
Fox seems like a winner. It's sort of clichéd but it's true. Dude is gonna be a winning ballplayer and I want him badly.
 
Fox would be a perfect fit on this roster. I'm sure everyone in the FO is well aware already.. He's a plus defender, and a one man fast break, the fastest player in the class, and a floor general, and he's 6'4" what's not to like??

If Exum seems better but just sort of average this year, I would be down for trading Exum, a 1st and more for the kid.
 
Part of me wonders if we should take another PG just in case Exum doesn't pan out.....


3rd time's the charm, right?

If we want to draft another PG then we have to do something to address our current glut of PG's. Even if we trade Burke, which I almost guarantee happens, we will still have 3 healthy PG's on the roster. The only PG's in this draft I'm interested in are Baldwin as a 1st rounder or Malik Newman in the 2nd round as a project.

I wouldnt mind drafting Ulis either, but something tells me the Jazz wouldn't want a 5'9 PG.

There is another PG in the lottery in DX board i forgot his name.
 
The most puzzling thing with this whole draft is, how the **** the Lakers pick could ever be handed around.
 
how about luwawu

the gay has the horrible wingspan,big size。athleticism is excellent,he can shoot 3 ,and he maybe can cooperate well with gobert

if hayward decide to junp out his contract,we need a talented young wing。

he is the next batum
 
Just cause I'm sure a lot of guy's have only seen Thon's mixtapes here's some game action:

This draft could be wild, I think even more so if the Lakers lose the pick. Another big factor is Boston, who heading into the third year of Stevens are done rebuilding, they have picks 3, 16, 23, 31, 35, 45, 53, 58

Phoenix, Denver and Philly all have three first round picks. Philly could have a fourth pick if the Lakers pick drops below top 3.

There are 8 teams (lakers could be the ninth) without a first round pick and 6 teams with no picks at all. (No Picks: Wizards, Blazers, Thunder, Cavs, Heat, Knicks)

No First: Dallas, Brooklyn.

Some of these teams are in the middle of rebuilds and have no assets.

The Jazz have 12, 42, 52, and 60. The #12 has value, 42 has a little value, 52 and 60 might be worthless except that the Jazz need to fill a Salt Lake Stars roster.

Fun times ahead. Personally, I hope the Jazz keep the 12th pick and sign a couple of FA.

How far could we move up by packaging 52 and 60? To 46?

How far could we move up by packaging 42, 52 and 60? To 34? If so, how far could we move up by trading 12, 34, Burke and Burks? Would that get us the 6th pick?
