2016 NBA Draft Game Thread

[Sprowl]

Why not?

They'd be a good combo at 2/3 playing big, and 3/4 playing small.

Don't get the point for Chicago, who'd be blowing it up, holding out for a vet who is best used as a glue guy for a contender.

I'd think they'd be on Smart.

I think of Smart and Crowder as the same glue guy at different positions -- defensive stoppers, great hands, good rebounding for position, acceptable spotup 3 point shooter, but minimal game off the dribble.

So yea, Chicago must be blowing it up: Rose gone, Butler going, Noah a free agent.

Gotta take Dunn and dangle him out there like meat to lions.

 

[ifmanis5]

I like Ingram more than Simmons, did not like his suit.

 

[PrometheusWakefield]

ESPN Stat guy just told everyone 3 is more than 2.

 

[Eddie Jurak]

Sounds like they take Dunn at 3 and then may or may not keep him.

 

[RedOctober3829]

Gotta take Dunn and dangle him out there like meat to lions.

 

[Erik Hanson's Hook]

Gonna be Dunn. Either for us or for someone else.

 

[Ed Hillel]

WTF

 

[RedOctober3829]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Celtics will take Jaylen Brown, sources told ESPN.

 

[JCizzle]

BOOOOO

 

[Cellar-Door]

Jaylen

 

[HomeRunBaker]

ESPN Stat guy just told everyone 3 is more than 2.

They also showed the Lakers projected lineup next year and listed "Kobe Bryant (retired)" as the starting wing. GJGE 4 letter.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

once again we can't get a deal done

 

[DJnVa]

No way

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Brown?!??!!

 

[The Social Chair]

Huh

 

[DannyDarwinism]

Jesus H. Christ

 

[bowiac]

Thanks Danny.

 

[LondonSox]

Ugh I hate that pick, cannot believe couldn't get a deal done

 

[Statman]

Fuck this shit.

Ainge got roasted when the Sixers and Bulls called his bluff. Should taken the deal for Okafor or Noel.

 

[AimingForYoko]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

What?

 

[Papelbon's Poutine]

WTF?

 

[Bigpupp]

I mean, I like Brown...at like 6.

 

[BoSoxFink]

Fucking terrible, just awful

 

[RoDaddy]

here we go

 

[RedOctober3829]

I hate this so much.

 

[DJnVa]

That's....odd.

Might be something else going on.

 

[SydneySox]

I don't know much about Basketball but from everything I've read, this seems like the least good thing people had thought could happen.

 

[Clears Cleaver]

Wow. Huge bust potential.

 

[Bigpupp]

fuckkkkk

 

[Sprowl]

Total fakeout -- did Ainge take Brown for somebody else (not Chicago, not Philadelphia), or did he take Brown for his own roster?

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Interesting

 

[tims4wins]

Please let there be a trade later

 

[Erik Hanson's Hook]

Welp...at least he's wearing a bow tie.

 

[Jeff Van GULLY]

Nooooooo

 

[Marbleheader]

Am I the only one that likes the pick?

 

[DJnVa]

No way that's for someone else right?

 

[Reggie's Racquet]

I blame John Farrell.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Goddamn.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

That's....odd.

Might be something else going on.

Ainge has rarely done draft day well, this is nothing new.

 

[Jeff Frye's Face Mask]

This sucks. Not what I was hoping for.

 

[FelixMantilla]

I love this pick.

 

[CaptainLaddie]

What in the fuck?

 

[DJnVa]

ESPN "pumping the brakes" on if he stays in Boston

 

[AimingForYoko]

Ooh boy...

 

[Kliq]

I wouldn't have picked him at 3 to play for the Celtics, but who knows if the Celtics controlled this pick.

 

[Erik Hanson's Hook]

Worst turnover/assist rate in Div 1

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

31% jump shooter. 1 to 2 assist /TO ratio. Awesome

 

[ifmanis5]

Hate the pick, hopefully it's a pick for someone else.

 

[Jeff Van GULLY]

Probably not trading the pick then. Which sucks and why I don't like it.
