I just don't really want Jaylen Brown, and to a lesser extent Buddy Hield.

As long as we draft best player avaiable, which could be any of Chriss, Bender, Dunn, Murray I'd be very happy with any of them :)

If we're trading #3, I hope it's in a package for Butler.
Apparently the Wolves offered 5 for Butler, surely 3 and AB or something is a better deal
I think so. Problem is I just can't see Chicago wanting to move Butler.

you would do some serious damage if you got Butler.

Isiah Thomas/ Marcus Smart
Jimmy Butler
Jae Crowder/Evan Turner
Jarred Sullinger
Kelly Olynk

Dammit, now Nate Duncan goes and says he likes Brown over Bender and Chriss.. If it wasn't complicated enough already!

Gonna have to go back and watch some more Brown.

What is Brown position in the NBA. As Cal weren't the best team at college and lacked a ball handler he ran the point on a few occasions. No doubt he won't be doing that in the NBA, however his ability to create his own shot is something I really like even though not as efficient as others. His size makes him an interesting prospect. I haven't heard what Nate Duncan but going Brown to me makes it look like he is willing to risk a lot

The main gist of it was that Brown has the superstar potential offensively that the other two have (Chriss and Bender) and his weaknesses may have been magnified due to context

I didn't watch enough Chriss to believe how talented he is, but certainly flying up the draft boards at the right time for him. I still have a few players ahead of him atm but he seems to have a good balance. Not superstar potential offence like Brown though

Chad Ford reporting that the Celtics have narrowed it down to Dunn, Murray, Chriss, Brown.

Anyone know about Chier Maker? Playing for Portland Pilots in college next season

Dunn said on First Take today that he does not want to go to a team that has a lot of guards. Looks like he'll be disappointed if Boston or Phoenix pick him up then :)

The more I think about it, the more I think we take Murray or Brown.

And Dunn falls to the Kings at #8

Jay

If Labissiere is still there at 11 or 12, I'd like to see Boston package up 16 + 23 for that pick.

Tbh I don't know why he didn't stay in College. I think he will be there at pick 11 but I would go chasing however the first year in the NBA I see him providing very little
