the bulls dont need to draft a replacement for boozer because they have taj.

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

Mavericks don't have a first round pick? :O

 

[Giantmetfan07]

that #4 pick right now makes me hate James Dolan even more. 

 

[Giantmetfan07]

Mavericks don't have a first round pick?

 
nope, sent to the Thunder. If that pick falls in to the top 20 i think Dallas gets it back. 

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

ah.

No way Sixers pick Smart over Randle. They already have MCW

 

[elcheato]

We're talking Chris Grant here. Rodney Hood makes a lot of sense, so they would for CERTAIN take Dante Exum or Gary Harris

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Smart and Carter-Williams would be menacing on the defensive end, but on the offensive end? Not sure they would play well together.

 

[elcheato]

Wayne Selden on Philly would be sweet, but he wouldn't go that high. I still love him.

Taj is not playing well despite getting solid minutes this season, he's 28 and at his peak, he's not getting any better, he's not the answer.

 Marcus Smart is more of a shooting guard, and they already have Thaddeus Young who's only 25. MCW - Smart - Turner - Young - Noel is a sick young lineup, and if you're getting around 15PPG from MCW, Smart, Young each, 20PPG from Turner, and 10PPG from Noel your offense will be fine.

Exum is way overrated in my opinion, he hasn't seen any play time against quality opponents, it'll be a shock for some when he's not all that. But Gary Harris could be an option, I like Hood more though.
 

Smart and Carter-Williams would be menacing on the defensive end, but on the offensive end? Not sure they would play well together.

 
They can both do 15PPG along with Thaddeus Young, Turner could get to 20PPG, and Noel around 10PPG so thats 75PPG out of your starters right there, then with a solid bench the Sixers are all set.
 

Wayne Selden on Philly would be sweet, but he wouldn't go that high. I still love him.

 
I don't think he comes out. He's not playing up to expectations yet in college, I think he'll wait to boost his draft stock.

ok? he was recently signed to an extension though. they clearly want him longterm. drafting a player who will playbehind him or keep taj on the bench at his price isnt smart. the bulls will be drafting for depth.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

What is your logic for Gordon/Selden/the Kentucky players not going pro? Seems like overthinking, especially on Gordon. I don't see any way he doesn't jump, he's a top 6 pick for sure.
 
Also Marcus Smart is in no way a Shooting Guard.
 
Doug McDermott is way too high.
 
Bobby Portis plays for Arkansas and has in zero way, shape, or form outplayed Aaron Gordon.
 
Also don't get the Bulls pick considering they've drafted a wing the past two years. Think they either go PF or PG to back up Rose.
 
I really don't get the logic of a lot of this mock now that I read it more in depth.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Give me Gary Harris instead, imo

Move Buckets to the three, add Harris at SG.

 

[Raindelay]

Mavericks don't have a first round pick? :O

Nor do the Knicks. Smh

They are both ball dominate guards who can't shoot worth a lick. The spacing with those two on the court together would be all kinds of fucked up, teams would just clog the fuck out of the lane and make Young, Turner, Noel, etc lives a living hell. Young and Turner may not even be there next season.

And to bad the Pels traded away their pick, could have landed a stud. LOL

 

[Pugz]

not to mention,the past two or three years et has been on the block and.nothing points to him staying in philly.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Also, what's the deal with this "Taj is not playing well" nonsense?  Taj is probably the best player on the Bulls right now.

Selden has been telling people on campus he's not leaving. & Joel may not leave either. Jordan Clarkson is a PG too btw Donkey.
 
 
Fwiw I still have Wiggins going # 1. Once workouts start happening..I think it'll cement it.
