STORY LINES GOING INTO THE DRAFT::

- Every pick will be spoiled on twitter and the NBA doesnt care. :shrug:
- Will Danny "the Brain Doctor" Ainge actually do a thing or just conserve assets until the end of time? Is Belichickian down-trading a smart idea in the NBA when only 5 guys are on the court at once?
- The Knicks may be trading Kristaps Porzingis (the Lativian gangster) for a top 5 pick. Boston and PHO have both been in deep negotiations and it may happen.
- Both LAL and PHILA may be trading for an additional 1st rounder.
- DET may be trading their pick for an established veteran.
- Indiana will most likely trade Paul George during the draft.
- First two picks are known, no one has any idea what will happen at 3 and after.
- Minne may be trading its pick + more for Jimmy Butler
- The Trail blazers are in bad shape with a championship payroll for a .500 team. They may be trading all of their 1sts to get out of bad contracts
- the Kings have two top ten picks and it will be entertaining to see them gently caress it up.
- DENNIS SMITH JUNIOR is a complete stud baller and will be drafter way too late.
- CLE is completely shook after not extending its GM. Lebron is mad in real life. Kyrie is daydreaming in public about being somewhere else. Everyone knows LBJ will be in LA next year. IN the background. I doubt they do anything since .. .you know... they dont have a GM during the draft.

If I was ranking 'most likely to be a league MVP' Fultz is first and second I'd have Dennis Smith. It's weird he is going to be outside the top 6 (probably). Jason Tatum's ceiling is Old Melo, why is he going to go third/fourth? I don't get it.

If Isaac is gone and we keep the pick DSJ is who I want so bad.

I have such a good feeling about that dude, like I did with Luwalu and he seemed like a pretty good rookie last year.

I think Sixers are targeting Portland with a trade up. Portland has an extra pick and too much salary on the books. They need non-guaranteed contracts.

Looking cute, feeling cute.
Josh Jackson was always kinda an rear end in a top hat, so I don't really care where he goes as long as it's not the Celtics or some poo poo like that. Frank Mason though needs to not end up on some team I hate, so please let him land on the, uh, the Sixers, that'll be fine, or the Jazz or Sun.
