2016 NBA Draft Discussion

[biltalent]

Im really nervous now.

 

[joemama]

Say bye bye bazmore
Hopefully we (kings) will getcha

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

We drafted Hedo when we had an all-star SF

Turkoglu wasn't a lottery pick. He also could play multiple positions.

 

[Krunker]

I am hoping we pick Jackson or Luwawu

 

[sdballer]

If Papagiannis isn't being dealt I wonder if a Koufos trade isn't already worked out?

Even that, trading a vet in koufos for a guy that averaged 5 minutes in euroball?

 

[N0tmyfault]

I'm honestly not too upset over Big George. Admittedly, I know very little of him, but his highlight reel looks promising. I would have rather had Balwin, but in 5-years, we may have a stud 7-2 center.

 

[Henkel]

If we don't take a lead guard here we have to assume Rondo is still in the mix. At that point what other options do we really have?

 

[Gilles]

I think the OP was talking about big boards, not mocks.

Last few days he was being pumped:

"This kid has great pedigree," one league source, who loved Kristaps Porzingis' game last year, told me. "He plays at top level in Greece, as well as national team experience. If he went to St. Johns or Kentucky, he would be a lottery pick."

[CyKings]

no idea, but this screams Korkmaz to me

 

[joemama]

Come on luwuwawukuwi

 

[steelevt]

any chance silver stops the trade for basketball reasons ala chris paul to the lakers?

 

[jcwkings]

Only thing that makes sense now is Cousins to Lakers for Ingram, Russell, Randle.

 

[hrdboild]

Whos available at 22?

Timothe Luwawu
Dejounte Murray
Skal Labissiere
Deyonta Davis
Cheick Diallo
Diamond Stone
Furkan Korkmaz

Still a lot of talent left on the board.

 

[Kingsgurl]

To be fair, our usual draft reaction profession goes like this:

Draft day: Woohoo! Great pick!

Halfway thru the season: this dude sucks! Trade him for a half-decent vet now!

Or, conversely, who??? wtf????? Boo.... years later, oh, good pick (not that I think that pick was good, I have no idea who the hell that was, but I think there are many things I do not know, especially about this rather weak draft) Boogie's comments could also have been about his BROTHER, who is still hoping to be drafted.

 

[sdballer]

Last few days he was being pumped:

https://www.sny.tv/knicks/news/who-are-the-knicks-targeting-as-the-draft-approaches/183801770

Yeah as a possible target for their mid second round pick

 

[Rockmeister]

I wonder what input Joerger had in this

Probably he had a lot of input or maybe he didn't say anything.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Word is the Papagiannis move was Vlade's way of messing with Jerry Renyolds

 

[funkykingston]

Even that, trading a vet in koufos for a guy that averaged 5 minutes in euroball?

If the Kings really are interested in Ryan Anderson and sign him then Koufis would be the odd man out anyway. You trade him for an asset and give a young big with a higher ceiling time to develop.

 

[Jose]

Only thing that makes sense now is Cousins to Lakers for Ingram, Russell, Randle.

Or to Boston for Brown, ?? + extra cap?

No. Cousins bro is not going to be drafted so that's not it

conley?

 

[funkykingston]

I think I'd do that.

 

[joemama]

Not a bad pick

 

[theclash4u5]

LOL

 

[Amit149]

Timothe Luwawu
Dejounte Murray
Skal Labissiere
Deyonta Davis
Cheick Diallo
Diamond Stone
Furkan Korkmaz

Still a lot of talent left on the board.

It's a long list so one of them should be available at the 28th also- but my bet is we'll not pick anyone from that list just for spite.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

#22 - Hornets select Malachi Richardson - Will be traded to Kings

 

[Tetsujin]

Hrmmmm... Not a bad pick but

 

[SLAB]

Is the world still ending? I don't know this guy.

 

[funkykingston]

Boom or bust with Malachi Richardson.

Not one of my favorites.

 

[Gilles]

Now this is bad...
