Nah, we only draft him with pick #8

[plumdog millionaire]

I'd take Ingram #1 but I'm biased

I'm going to start watching some tape on these guys, but from the limited stuff I've seen and heard, I'd take Simmmons first no matter what.

Also, poor Sam Hinkie. They finally get some lottery luck and he isn't there for reasons which are ridiculous. He should get 100% of the credit if this team ever ends up good.

@Griff, what can you tell me about Domantas Sabonis? Big man out of Gonzaga. Haven't heard of him before, but nbadraft have him at 8 on their big board..

[RiOtChEsS]

why would the bucks take simmons they have antetokounmpo

I think that could be a deadly duo, they would fit beautifully, imagine playing this lineup

C: Monroe
PF: Antetokounmpo
SF: Parker
SG: Middleton
PG: Simmons

Apart from the 5 most of those positions are fluid, it's a matchup nightmare in pick and roll or post up situations, it's not a starting lineup but being able to run that would guarantee you're going to get a longer guy shooting over a smaller guy in every situation, you have 2 excellent shooters in Middleton and Parker and 2 excellent passers that are "point forwards"

76'ers keen on Simmons

yep Hinkie did a great job.

Saric is coming back, I bet Embiid gets healthy. They could play playoffs in 2 years and people will give all the credit to the new guy.

Dont they have like 2 first rounders next year?

Surely they could try to package like Noel + lakers first rounder for something good.

Knicks hire Jeff Horny Hornacek

Decent hire! Not sure what happened to hiring a triangle coach though?

[Jay]

KD is locked in

[plumdog millionaire]

12 points in 1:22. Your NBA MVP.

Two best shooters in the game going at it, amazing

Edit: 15 in 1:58

Looks like GSW arent happy about losing game 1.

Gonzaga were poor this year but he was definitely a shining light. Was a double double machine, very good finisher with good efficiency. Defence was poor from what I can remember but he certainly has the size to be a shot blocker. He started shooting more and the end of the year, so he could develop a jump shot. I have him inside my top 10 plus look for him to add so numbers on offence in his rookie year

The things I'd do to Steph Curry... Got so hot in the third there.
