2016 NBA Draft Thread [ARCHIVED] Basketball • Page 7

He's probably Channing frye 2.0

 

What's the deal with Thon Maker? Is he any good? The Hornets boards want him.

 

He never played college ball, he needs to sit for awhile. He's talented but also last I saw him he had Tyson chandler chicken legs so again idk if he's physically ready. He can shoot though, rare for his size. Definitely not ready to play bump to bump with other dudes his size. He's a project with a lot of upside.

 

Kings apparently would be drooling if buddy fell to their spot in the draft cause of course...

 

Kris Dunn apparently declining a workout for PHX; wants to come to Minnesota.

I don't know if that last part has ever been said before. LOVE IT.

 

Apparently the sixers love Murray, I guess that's what they would ideally do with the pick they get if trading okafor/Noel

 

Wow thon maker was working out at the Baruch basketball facility... I had no idea Baruch even had a basketball team let alone a sports team of any kind lol

 

Does anyone think Philly will decide beforehand or wait until the actual draft?

 

I'd guess that they'll judge what the offers are now because it's the best time to gauge whether what the best deal is, whether it's a current player or a high draft pick.

 

what is the PG free agency class looking like? as much as i love kris dunn defensively, i love that murray is only 20 and how much of a scoring threat he can be.

 

Mike Conley

 

how credible is Steve kyler? He's always had some interestin stuff, I've never thought it was bad but reading some of this offseason/draft stuff has me scratching my head.

 

Lol absolutely not

 

That trade makes sense if you're a Boston homer, like Bill Simmons.

 

Sorry Bill, but no. Not even a little.

 

I'm a Boston homer, and that trade makes zero sense for the 76ers haha

 

The Sixers already have three first rounders and Embiid/Saric debuting over next year. Odds are one of 24/26 is a stash. There's no way they trade down for more picks hahaha

 

He always says dumb stuff, Steve kyler has been clogging up hoops hype with tons of bogus stuff... It's really annoying.

 

yeah, bill has been pretty annoying to follow on twitter lately with his homer takes regarding boston sports.

 

Furkan korkmaz pulling out of the draft, nice

Edit: he just decided to stay in

 

He isn't

 

Just happened, weird.

 

Embiid is massive

 

I would have expected him to bulk up after not playing for two years.

 

he has been on the shelf for two years, i would hope you would be in the weight room at least.
