Following potential 2013 draftees

For some reason this made me a little sick inside:

"@DraftExpress2: Cleveland has ownership of as many as 13 picks over the next three drafts. The Suns will have as many as 10. Both remarkable numbers."
 
I would take Giannis over Mitchell, but that's just me. If I take Mitchell, he's playing PF, and that's it. All I would want him to do is defend the paint and be athletic out there. If he wants to try to take people off the dribble or take stupid jumpshots, I take him out. Get rebounds, defend and dunks. That's all he would need to do. I think Giannis's basketball skills lead to a higher potential for him though.

This.

I said this once, but it's worth mentioning again. Giannis may not be done growing. He just turned 18 and grew 3 inches in 10 months. Imagine if this kid gets up to 6'11. He's just too intriguing to me.
 
Giannis Vs Serge Ibaka (#24 pick)... go


i think honestly this is what worries me about adetokunbo for some reason. Ibaka looked way better to me, and less of a project.

i like adetokunbo though he can really run, i will not complain about Giannis if we pick him. Al Farooq Aminu is better. Giannis is really young for this draft though, not a bad pick to stash either
 
i think we are lying to ourselves thinking the jazz arent gonna be really good next year, methinks the pick is in the 20's, id trade that pick for Schroeder, Gobert, McCollum, Tony Mitchell, Larkin i say we go into next year with flexibility and all of our youngins within a four year window of their rookie contracts

Hayward for the rights to Bazz
14' pick for a top fifteen pick, Rights to Rudy Gobert
#14 pick Schroder
#21 Tony Mitchell
2nd rounder Jaiteh

yes thats 5 rookies... we need to sign 3 more for 15 or 4 you stash Gobert for a year(he needs to eat)

sign, Tinsley, Foye, CP3 and Dwight howard

CP3, Burks, Shabazz, Favors, Howard
Schroder,Foye, Mitchell, Kanter, Kanter
Tinsley, Murphy, Evans, Mitchell, Jaiteh

**** you bitch!!! Go hug a skunk!
 
Magic lucked out. They would have been pressured into taking Noel 1st overall if they got it. Now they can take Burke, Porter, or McLemore without as much pressure.

Wow if true...

Chad Ford ‏@chadfordinsider 1m
Hearing from multiple sources that Mavs likely to trade the No. 13 pick. Want to save cap space for Dwight Howard run ...

Make that a double Wow.. we've got the cap space to do it too.

Schroeder & Bazz not so unpossible?
 
My early mock drafts:

1. Cavs - Noel (no brainer)
2. Magic - McLemore (wing scorer - new GM from OKC school of draft)
3. Wizards - Porter (perfect fit)
4. Bobcats - Oladipo (Cho likes good character guys)
5. Suns - Bennett (need low post scorer)
6. Pelicans - Burke (perfect fit, no brainer)
7. Kings - MCW (they still need a true PG)
8. Pistons - McCollum (to pair with Knight)
9. Wolves - Bazz (they need a scoring SG)
10. Blazers - Len (thin front court)
11. Sixers - Zeller (no brainer if falls this far)
12. Thunder - Olynyk (scoring big to go with Ibaka)
13. Mavs - Gobert (defensive big to go with Dirk, may be back up Dwight if they can get him, they'll re-sign Collison at PG)
14. Jazz - Schroeder (Yeah BABY Yeah!!)
