2015 NBA Draft Thread

[HFCS]

Can someone explain to me what Boston is thinking with that Rozier selection?

They now have 4 PGs on the roster. Thomas, Smart, Bradley and now Rozier.

I can't pretend to be familiar with every team's roster but that is a head scratcher to me so far, even Philly I mean they just took a guy who could be a huge star and they have injury questions at the position even with the talent.

At least those guards aren't players who overlap exactly with what Babb does and maybe there's a chance he sees the court rather than stocking up shooting guards and wings.

Chad Ford's description of #16 pick Terry Rozier "mini Marcus Smart"...that leaves a bit to be desired for a mid first rounder.

Especially for a team that has a full sized Marcus Smart already.

I know why people on here hate Vaughn and I agree he's a terrible decision maker with the whole UNLV thing..... but he's a stud player. I think that's a fine pick.

He was good when healthy for UNLV in their garbage system.

18 ppg and 38% from 3 with really good athleticism. Can play D. Mid lotto makes sense for him.

The Bucks have to swing for the fences more than most franchises, especially if they see themselves as a team making playoffs in the East and not in the lottery. They showed some good logic not taking the local guy who is very likely a solid role player to try for a potential star.

Sounds like Jerian Grant is headed to the Knicks via Atlanta for Tim Hardaway

Get assets, worry about the fit later. They've been shopping Smart too.

Oubre-Rozier-Vaughn at 15-17 is ridiculous. Not a good pro in the 3 of them.

I'm not sure on Vaughn, there are definitely quite a few similar guys on the board I'd have taken before Oubre and Rozier though. I'm fine with it though as 3 of the 4 guards I was interested in for Chicago are still there.

Finally a smart move for knicks

 

[Mumbai1986]

So now Jerian Grant going to the Knicks.

Porzingas and Grant.

But get good assets, not 2nd round talent in the lottery.

Those are some awful hats.

The Knicks just swindled another team wtf

There goes 1 of the 3 PGs I wanted. 2 picks left, no idea what Toronto or Dallas want with these picks.

 

[bawbie]

Dekker in Houston is a good fit, if he stays there.

So now Jerian Grant going to the Knicks.

Porzingas and Grant.

Grant seemed like a very safe prospect to me...but once he puts that Knicks jersey on it's all over most likely.

Big Jerian Grant fan but hate the Knicks, wish he could have landed in Atlanta. But at least not the Bulls, who I hate more (even before Hoiberg).

 

[HFCS]

SOB! Just watch Dallas take Jones and all the players I liked for Chi gone just before them.

 

[CarlHungus]

I'm betting Hoiberg takes Portis if Dallas doesn't

 

[Mumbai1986]

Mr. Triangle himself, Phil Jackson about to speak!

 

[HFCS]

I think about any team could use that length Portis has but the Bulls need to address backcourt depth even if Rose never misses another game. If they can't draft a top PG or combo guard prospect (several I liked just gone) they have to address it some other way.
