Do the Suns get the Lakers 1st round pick outright? or is it protected in anyway?

MourningView posted:He does, so hopefully OKC has years of easy baskets for opposing centers to look forward too. But I suppose having one of the most dominant players of his generation as the fourth option is pretty hard to pass up. does kanter's defense even matter when the other 4 players on the court will russ kd ibaka and morrow? that offense is unstoppable

Ty1990 posted:Russell has, to me, some tools that just don't come around every year in the draft. While Mudiay has gotten by against lesser talent by being the best athlete on the floor, Russell has done it by reading defenses and having vision that is as good as I can remember (seriously...who has had vision like his in the past few draft classes? I can't think of anybody but maybe I'm missing someone). the last pg to come out with amazing vision is probably rubio

Crazy Ted posted:Exactly. If you're in the top three you go with what you think is the best player available unless you somehow have surplus talent at positions projected at the top of the draft. Drafting for need at the top is what caused Portland to pick Sam Bowie #2 in 1984. Really? I thought it was because bowie was really really good* *my entire knowledge of bowie is based off of the 30 for 30 documentary on him

Redgrendel2001 posted:Seems to have a lot of positive attributes: a true PG who can shoot, plays the pick and roll well, lefty, nice wingspan. He's really shot up the draft board in DX's latest mock. But does he have the look? Serious question does he have an attitude where he will a team player or will he be like reggie and stop caring if he isn't a starter after 1 solid playoff run?

So Payne is projected to be a solid 3pt shooter. I can get aboard picking him if that's the case.

MourningView posted:Like of a lot of recent Kentucky guys he was supposed to have a really good jumper and face up game that he more or less never got to show in college because they just kept him in the post all the time (and early in the year didn't play him a ton of minutes or give him the ball much). It's tough to put too much weight on high school rep, because especially with big guys that reputation can get really inflated when it comes to shooting, but it's worth considering especially if he's drilling threes in workouts routinely. So what you are saying is rj hunter is going to be presti's choice after Payne gets picked right before him

Tokyo Sex Whale posted:I feel like this is embarrassing to ask but why is Okafor such a good prospect? Like he's supposedly the best offensive big prospect since Shaq. What makes him a better prospect than Kevin Love was? Not that Kevin Love wouldn't be worthy of the 1st or 2nd pick but I don't get what makes Okafor the best prospect in 10 or 20 years or whatever. okafor is really good in the post https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTVZWIcs16Y also love wasn't worthy of the first or second pick when he came out
