The NBA Draft Thread

I think Rabb can be a good contributor if drafted by the right team.


Miles Bridges has all the physical tools but he needs to grow mentally and offensively, I think he should've stayed.
 
As I think about it more and more, I'm very high on Lauri and believe he has a very good chance to become the best offensive player in the draft.

7'0 who shoot as well as he does just don't really happen.

There are only five players in NBA history who were 6'11 or taller and shot 83% from the line. Four of them were all-star players (Yao/Sikma/Lambie/Dirk).

I know he has possible severe defensive limitations but he is super coordinated so I think it might be salvageable. Even if he remains horrible on D, you saw how valuable Ryan Anderson (who I think is Lauri's absolutely worse case scenario) was this year because of the gravity he created.

If Lauri can keep developing his offensive game and add in a little more handle, I think he'll be an elite scorer and could project to be a top two or three shooter in the league.

And at 7'0 I don't think you can put a price tag on that sort of value.
 
What did he say?


To be more specific:



I guess we need to break down how twitter works for NT :lol:. The portion of this profile with his photo and "loading...up" is part of profile, essentially his profile signature. Ignore that, that part doesn't change unless he wants it to. In twitter there is a tab that allows others to see the posts you've liked. So D'Angelo searched through twitter and saw a tweet of someone saying we don't need Lonzo and he liked that tweet, signifying that he agrees with those sentiments.
 
ryan anderson is an incredibly high floor :lol:
reminds me of people saying marion was aaron gordon's floor

LeBron is effective because he has shooters around him
Fox can't shoot so it isn't a good fit to put him next to Simmons
Josh Jackson, DSJ and even Tatum are better fits than Fox for the Sixers
