2018 NBA Draft - June 21

[catfish]

Reading that article from the infamous Berman of the Post sounds like agent of Mik Bridges is playing some games. Wouldnt let the NY media talk to his client. Odd for someone who the Knicks seem to be hot after and obviously he didnt let him get measured either.

Really odd to be following the draft again.

 

[Nathan S]

Jontay at 14% body fat...that means he's carrying about 15 extra pounds, give or take. He's one guy in the draft who's genuinely quite likely to improve athletically over the next couple years.

Omari Spellman too. Draymond Green became a better athlete in the NBA, and I expect the same for Omari.

Spellman looks like a good prospect to me.

I'd take him in the first round for sure, but not much higher. Should be a really good roleplayer at the NBA level.

I keep thinking "these guys won't last until our pick" but somebody will

And he will have red flags. That's always why they slip. I hate taking slippers. That's why the 8th pick is cursed.

Not necessarily true...as i've said before, a guy could be top-5 on every single big board and still slip to #8.

What about Carter? Do you think he has a lot of Red Flags? We could go super safe and pick a guy with a good floor like him. If he is not there, Mikal Bridges will likely be there.

 

[Stark]

Really interested in who the Mavericks pick actually.

I'm going to assume that Ayton, Doncic, Bagley, and Jackson are the first four picks in whatever order, so Dallas will have their choice of Porter, Carter, Bamba, and Mikal Bridges. Would have to assume that Cuban wouldn't be interested in Trae Young because of Dennis Smith, but who knows.

I think Trae Young is locked in to either the Hawks at #3 (given the issues coming out with Schroeder) or the Magic at #6. Don't think he'll be around for the Cavaliers at #8.

Would love if Bamba could fall into our laps, but I'm really on the Mikal Bridges train right now.

 

[Cavatt]

I do think Carter is underrated and would be awesome here. Bamba, Carter and Mikal Are my #1 and 2a and 2b. Porter Jr is 3 for me. I think those are all great options, although I would order it differently if Lebron is gone for sure.

Young I don't want, and anything else better turn into a star because an our of nowhere pick has bot been kind to us before.
