2016 NBA Draft - The place where Kings' fans dreams are crushed. (2 Viewers)

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Did the Thunder really just get all that for Ibaka?? No way.

 

[Abraham]

I really like Heild to the Pelicans. 

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

Orlando fans not going to be happy

 

[Juxtatarot]

Our Magic just made a big trade (not Sabonis related)

Sure about that?

 

[Frostillicus]

Oladipo, Ilyasova, Sabonis for ibaka

 

[Premier]

Oladipo, Sabonis and Ilyasova for Ibaka

 

[Frostillicus]

Sure about that?

I am not.

 

[GOB]

Yep.  Haven't seen what they sent yet.

So I should tell them to stop with the Sabonis tattoo on my right butt cheek?

 

[HellToupee]

Someone want to try to explain Jaylen Brown to the Celts. I have a hard time believing that he was their guy all along. Could they traded down and got him at 6 or 7. 

For the past month you knew Simmons and Ingram were off the board and Jaylen Brown is their guy?  What am I missing?

The Globe mocked him to the Cs . I want happy but when it comes to the nba draft I feel I'm clueless so I have faith in Danny

I wanted Hield or Dunn. Even would have been happy with Chriss 

 

[coyote5]

That is true.

Where does this fella fall on a scale of Bargnani to JV?

Giannis  

 

[SayWhat?]

What are they going to get trading down? They don't need more picks and if he is their guy than just make the pick.  I'm sure they wanted to swing a deal but didn't have interest in Okafor or Noel.

I'd take either Okafor or Noel if you're option at 3 was Brown.  Gross.  As a Wolves fan first and Celts fan 2nd, was disgusted with their pick but pumped about what it meant for the Wolves at 5.

Let's just say I don't think Danny is off to a great start tonite.

 

[Juxtatarot]

First big reach?

 

[Frostillicus]

Getting kinda excited about Jimmy Butler.

 

[GOB]

Jalen Rose 

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Wolves are after Butler.  Magic get Ibaka.  Quite the rivalry brewing here.  

Lebron just announced his retirement. "What's the point."

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Jalen Rose 

 

"Oh yeah"

 

[Cliff Clavin]

Needed to replace Carroll's hair?

 

[Kev4029]

Did the Thunder really just get all that for Ibaka?? No way.

Good trade for both, IMO. Oladipo was redundant and the Magic needed some shooting and rim defense. Ersan will be a decent filler for OKC and Oladipo means they don't have to resign waiters.

 

[Baloney Sandwich]

Let's just say I don't think Danny is off to a great star tonite.

It all depends on how he turns out, rarely does the pre-draft thought on players align to how they perform in the NBA. Granted, I would have pulled the trigger on a deal with Philly but I'm not going to bash the Celtics yet.

 

[Juxtatarot]

Getting kinda excited about Jimmy Butler.

For the Bulls, I'm on the fence. Dunn looks promising, I guess.

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Suns picking for Sac here reportedly (Chriss deal)

C'mon Wade Baldwin.....

 

[Premier]

Illyasova probably wasn't going to have his option picked up. It's pretty much Oladipo and the 11th for Serge. 

 

[Britney Spears]

Hopefully Durant and Ibaka were really close friends!

 

[Frostillicus]

Illyasova probably wasn't going to have his option picked up. It's pretty much Oladipo and the 11th for Serge. 

I think I saw he's got like $400k guaranteed or something so almost an auto cut.

 

[GOB]

Adams is going to average 30 rebs with Oladipo and Russ throwing up bricks.

#### you all, I'm going to bed.

 

[Premier]

Elfrid ( :X  ) - Mario - Ibaka? - Gordon - Fournier

eeeeeesh

 

[Courtjester]

Here comes that I hope it's not me pick

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Love Sabonis as a complimentary player. Great passing big.

 

[Kev4029]

I love the Kings.

 

[Britney Spears]

Greek freaks dad!

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Kings.

 

[GOB]

Hopefully Durant and Ibaka were really close friends!

I heard Durant said I go where Keri Hilson goes

[Craig_MiamiFL]

WHO?

Great job Kings. I'm sure this guy will move Cousins and WCS to the bench.

 

[Frostillicus]

This draft is all over the place.

 

[elguapo07]

Not yet. We 'll see what he does with his next pick. Need to stash some intl players tonite

Someone want to try to explain Jaylen Brown to the Celts. I have a hard time believing that he was their guy all along. Could they traded down and got him at 6 or 7. 

For the past month you knew Simmons and Ingram were off the board and Jaylen Brown is their guy?  What am I missing?

I will try...he actually may have been their guy all along barring a trade...he has been openly linked to them for a few weeks...supposedly he blew them away at his work-outs (they brought him back for a second one) with his athleticism, attitude and defensive ability (i.e. stuff that Stevens values in a big way)...he is one of those high risk/high reward picks...big ceiling and floor here...the biggest concern has to be his shooting...if he doesn't improve in that area will he be able to drive to the hoop...this picks reminds me of something Belichik would do...valuing someone higher than others do and leaving the draftniks scratching their head on draft-day...BB has hit the jackpot on many of those picks but has also had plenty of misses...so right now it is "in Danny and Brad we trust"...

 

[Kev4029]

At least they traded down to make that awful pick.

 

[Courtjester]

I have been saying gyros all wrong 

 

[Frostillicus]

per Twitter Thibs called Towns to get his input on a possible Jimmy Butler trade.

 

[Moe.]

 It's not against the rules for Presti to run this stuff by Durant first, right?

 

[Premier]

Thread title was spot-on all along. 

 

[GOB]

Elfrid ( :X  ) - Mario - Ibaka? - Gordon - Fournier

eeeeeesh

I think Vucevic is getting traded.

Probably for Kobe.

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

So the Kings dealt Chriss for some Greek guy, Bogdan Bogdanovic (great shooter but who has already said hes not coming over this year) and #28 pick. Building for the future. Again

Okay.

 

[Kev4029]

per Twitter Thibs called Towns to get his input on a possible Jimmy Butler trade.

Conley would be a sweet fit if they can pull the trade off.

 

[Premier]

I think Vucevic is getting traded.

Probably for Kobe.

Oh yea I just assumed he was getting traded. If he doesn't gordon goes to the bench? Wtf is going on. 

 

[Kev4029]

Thread title was spot-on all along. 

Better than I ever could have hoped.

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Woj says deal is done. Lavine and Dunn for Butler. Aldridge says no. 

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Jackasses on the ESPN set are guessing every pick correctly.  Worse than Berman.

 

[Kev4029]

Valentine .... I think they are making that Butler trade. They would have taken a PG otherwise.
