The 2015 NBA Draft Thread: Draft Day Is Here

[nick.]

@chadfordinsider Mudiay is a HUGE PG. Gained 9 lbs of muscle since I saw him last. In great shape.

Even funny he still has a job after getting caught editing his mock drafts and whatnot. He's not the most reliable when it comes to things

Yall are definitely too quick to call Doug and Exum trash. Doug will definitely get a chance next year and should - Bulls needed to play more shooters and aren't all that good on the wings outside of Jimmy and Dunleavy. Exum was basically coming out of a weak HS and still ended up starting. His role was tiny, basically to defend and shoot 3s. That was NOT his game at all on every other level. There's still time for him to expand and gain the trust of the coaching staff.

Also the only options for Flip should be to draft Towns or to trade the pick for someone like Cousins + the Kings pick. Anything else is ridiculous.

Exum was hyped up, but to call him trash and Dougie trash ?

Lmao kings ain't trading cousins AND their pick for towns. Should be the other way around.

Exum and dougie gonna flourish in their 2nd season.

@WojYahooNBA Duke's Justise Winslow will work out for the Knicks on Monday, league sources tell Yahoo. New York is examining him closely at No. 4.

 

[Quincy McCall]

Upshaw with heart problems... if he wasn't already a basket case... welp

 

[mgrand15]

Bulls have one really good wing and one pretty good wing. That leaves PLENTY of time for Doug to play 3. To play next to Butler or Dunleavy. It's not like the Bulls are overloaded with wings.

I don't see either team wanting that deal....Especially considering the wolves could have drafted him.

Kelly DeBarge outchea'

No love for Mirotic?

Guess it comes down to the battle of Tony Snell vs. Dougie to battle for those 6 points a game

Watched KAT's shooting workout vid and was blown away. His moves are so fluid for a big man that age and that size. Along with his elite defense?

You guys think he could be as good as AD?

Well, considering what AD just did to the best defense in the league, the season he just had, and where his trajectory is going...No. In all likelihood not close.

And that's no knock on KAT, it's just that AD has already been historically great, and that's only going to continue. Its hard to say anyone coming out of the draft in any year is going to be historically great. I mean AD is a generational talent, once in a lifetime kind of player.

Could he be as good as AD? Maybe. But probably not.

I don't know if Doug's success in the NBA is going to be at the 3 though honestly.

KAT good as AD? nope

damn good center in the league? yes

 

[johnnyredstorm]

AD can become an all time great if he stays healthy. Towns prob won't get to that level but he'll be really special in his own right.

 

[hypebeast5]

I never seen so much hype over a workout vid, lemme repeat that we talking about a workout vid, this dude wasnt great in college like AD but after 1 workout vid we are comparing him to arguably the best bigman we have today

Stop it yall...

 

[shoeking2102]

Exactly. It's like saying that someone coming into the draft is going to be or can be as good as Tim Duncan, or Lebron, or Shaq, or like Kareem or somebody. This is the air that AD is has a shot at being at. 

KAT appears to be headed to a fantastic career, and could he be up there with those guys? It couldddd happen, but it's not really something you say a guy's ceiling can be, simply because it's such a wild thing to say a prospect's ceiling is the greatest player of all time or top 10 ever which is essentially what you're saying when you say KAT can be as good as AD.
