2016 NBA Draft Discussion

for the next two hours or so prior to the draft, there are going to be a abundance of rumors swirling around and lots of "what if" scenarios will be presented to us....I don't know if that's necessarily a good thing only to end up being disappointed with no movement and staying at 8.

If I was betting, I think there is a great chance that for all the twitter bluster, the Kings take BPA at #8 and that's it. Have seen this one before. Guessing Brown is the #8 guy.

Would be pleasantly surprised if there is any razzle-dazzle at all.

Yep seen it for five years now. Interestingly enough all five draft picks have floundered

The draft starts at 4pm PST right? That's only 5 minutes from now.
 
Guys we just cleared 6.3 million off the cap for a proven shooter who shoot all of 38% from the field this season and added another first round pick in the 20s! This is already the best trade in the last 10 years!

Well this draft is off to a great start. #22 in a poopooty draft for the only guy who can hit a 3 ball on the team

stop...you don't even know how the player will turn out. Every single season people question the draft and how deep it is, saying it's a bad draft only to find out it's not as bad as they make it out to be. Give it three seasons and revisit.

First pick is at 4:30 I believe. Goodbye Marco....... This is starting to be fun...

Oh crap Baja....we might get your guy Hield. Lots of local rumors about the Kings wanting Hield. Heavy rumors today about Kings trying to get in the top 5. I think they're going after Hield.

And who knew Marco had a positive net value? wtf?

Can the Kings wait three seasons? That's the thing.

No, I think I will continue to sit here and play armchair GM
 
Looking at draft boards real quick Tauren Prince, Demetrius Jackson, Korkmaz are interesting and should be there (and we can always hope for some guy to fall like Baldwin for example).
And of course an upgrade to an higher pick is also in play since we are rumored to try getting to 6th.
Thoughts?

Wow. And I thought maybe if we were lucky we could trade him to Boston for the 45th pick :eek:
 
Not super stoked about the Belli trade so far...I hope we're not packaging this pick along with #8 to move up. If that's the case, i am not down. We need vets, not rookies
