Official 2014 NBA Draft Thread (the race to the bottom)

[af.r.i.c.a.]

So it looks like Adam Silver and the owners will be pushing 20Yr minimum starting in the 2015-2016 season. Y'all can stop complaining now.

Guess the NCAA said were giving you more food but were taking one more year. Sucks for any team tanking next year. Knicks can't catch a break.

 

[MarcusGarvey]

NEW YORK -- Armed with majority support from owners and saying "we're ready to go," NBA commissioner Adam Silver made it clear that pushing back the league's age minimum to 20 is at the top of his priority list.

The league's owners hosted NCAA president Mark Emmert to discuss the issue as part of their annual two-day spring meeting this week. Any changes wouldn't be in place by next season because the league is waiting for the players' association to name an executive director before formally starting negotiations. But it's clear there's a growing momentum to force this occasionally divisive issue through soon, possibly in time for the 2016 draft.

Silver, who was presiding over his first board of governors meeting since taking over from former commissioner David Stern in February, said the league and the NCAA have discussed creating some programs and provisions to help players stay in college longer as part of a way to get the union to accept the changes.

When the league and the players' union signed the collective bargaining agreement in 2011, it was agreed that the current one-and-done college rule could be revised at any time. The players' union recently named Sacramento mayor and former NBA player Kevin Johnson to head a committee to name a new leader by the start of the 2014-15 season.

Utah has Derrick Favors who they paid a lot of money that can play center and power forward, they drafted last season Rudy Gobert who plays center and they have Ennis Kanter who plays center and is a very solid young offensive player. Why would they draft another center with 3 young prospects at that position already?

Same thing with Boston drafting a non defensive big guy when they already have 2 young ones on the roster who have shown they are pretty good scorers in the NBA already in Sullinger and Olynyk.

I think if both of those teams do what you say as far as drafting, then they will trade somebody off the roster or the pick.

I am a little iffy on the Embiid to Utah but I wouldn't be surprised if Utah decided to trade the pick or Kanter. He is still on rookie contract. His last year is next year so they basically have to decide if he is the guy worth giving 10 plus million a year to at this point. They did play Favors at center but it was mainly due to when Kanter was struggling earlier in the season. Gobert is still a few years away and may only be a backup big at this point. I see SG/SF as a bigger need but I don't think Utah will reach for one available at that high. Maybe they trade down but I see them selecting Embiid if he is available to trade or keep. One of those teams later in the draft probably makes an offer they can't refuse.

Boston is in a similar bad situation. I think they will trade Bass. I am not sure Olynyk is a true 5 but maybe he is a 4 until then. Randle would put them a step closer to a true 4 and let Olynyk split time at the 4-5 with Sullinger. I actually see them as one of the possible teams trying to move up to get Embiid. They have a couple future firsts they could make an offer. I think Boston needs center first then sg but again none of those are worth reaching for if

It makes more sense for Utah to go Guard then Embid. Alec Burks is solid but Smart and Exum would be a huge upgrade.. both guys have the size to play the 2. Boston will keep their fingers crossed on Embid falling. He would give them size and be a rim protector. Olynick and Sullinger are both more suited to play the 4. Randle would be a great fit for Milwaukee/LA or Philly

Yeah it does make more sense but I don't see Utah trying to get Gary Harris or Nik Staucaus if they select 4 just can't see it I think they will go talent over need. I am going by the projected order I am sure it will change with the actual lottery. I think Exum will go 3 if Orlando has the 3rd pick but maybe they go Randle. If Sixers get 2nd no way we select Randle if Parker or Wiggins is available. I am basing my selections off how I think it will go. I don't see the Sixers going Embiid over Parker or Wiggins if they have two.

Jabari is if Melo and Pierce joined together on some Dragonball Z fusion. No dis to Tobias but Bari is going to easily be a 20ppg guy in year 2 on. There shouldn't even be a worst case scenario for him. He just needs to lose 10lbs and add strength and some lateral movement.

I think Stauskas is better than James Young - same height, better shooter and handle. I don't have LaVine in my lottery but NBA people love the potential.

Yea Tobias is really his worst case but I'm confident he will be better. I put young ahead of NS because he projects to be a better athlete and defender. Both guys get buckets but Stauskas is more efficient while Young has more potential.

So you must think Smart can be a SG? I see him as a Pg that would struggle as a SG. His jumper is not that good and I don't see Utah going back to back lottery on pg's. Exum makes sense if available but Smart doesn't seem like a fit at all.

All the talk in preseason of college ball was how great a shooter James was, rarely saw it, Stauskas had way better numbers (so much more efficient) and was the other teams defense number one assignment. I'll concede the point on athleticism and defense though.

I think Stauskas is better than James Young - same height, better shooter and handle. I don't have LaVine in my lottery but NBA people love the potential.

I like Stauskas too he is like a Kyle Korver that can put the ball on the floor to score. He can score off screens and off the dribble pullup, iso's. He can't defend but damn he can shoot. I am a little low on Young also he is a good athlete but appears slow off the dribble and doesn't have a good handle at all to create much off the dribble. He depends way too much on getting to his left hand and driving into traffic for baskets and appears slow. The last thing you want to be is somewhat slow and don't have dribble moves bad combination. I see someone like Dorrell Wright and Brandon Rush is a good comparison though. He will be a rotation player.

The only player I think worth reaching for I think is Zach Lavine. I actually wouldn't be mad if my Sixers reached for him as long as they got a clear go to number one option with the first pick. If you play an uptempo style and willing to live with the growing pains then you have to take him.

 

[af.r.i.c.a.]

Smart has the size and defensive ability to guard every SG on the pro level. His jumper is streaky but so is Monta Ellis and Tony Allen and they have been relatively successful playing the 2 for along time now. Not saying Smart would be a full time SG he would be more of a combo Guard who allows Burk to play off the ball and spells him at the point when he's on the bench. Trey Burk can't guard me let alone pro guards so Smart would instantly become their stopper who guards the opposing teams best wing. If I had to guess Utah's big board would look something like

1.Parker

2.Wiggins

3.Embid

4.Exum

5.Smart

6.Randle

7.Harris/Vonleh

He would get hot for stretches and look nearly unstoppable but dude was far too inconsistent. You have to take into account that he was just a freshman on a team full of 5 star recruits. NS was the go to guy and had a year of experience under his belt. Young came on strong late in the year and was arguably UKs best player in the tourney. It's honestly a toss up imo

[A$AP_A$TON]

I gotta see some highlights on Exum. See what the fuss about.

 

[S2J]

My best pros out of this class in 5 years. Not quite where they will go, but who will be best

1-Jabari Parker-perrenial all star on a winner

2-Andrew Wiggins-scorer/all-star on a losing team. No 'edge'

3-Marcus Smart-straight dog. Lance Stephenson type affect

4-Dante Exum-wont play PG, but will be jack of all trades a la Batum

5-Joel Embiid-Will need to go to/end up on a winner to be what people think he can be, a la Tyson Chandler. 13 and 10 on a winner-He's so important!. 13 and 10 on a loser, he's a bust

6-Zach Levine-reminds me of watchin Westbrook at UCLA. All he had was athleticsm,too.

7-Noah Vonleh-pick n pop 4, Bosh lite, Horry minus the clutchness

8-Tyler Ennis-Mike Bibby. the type of starting PG u forget is in the league but still solid (i.e. when calderon was in toronto)

9-James Young-Gerald Henderson

10-Doug McDermott-he wont make it as a 3, but the way the lwague is going he can eat as a stretch 4

11-Elfrid Payton-true PG w/ size, Keyon Dooling

12-Julius Randle-bust

13-Nik Stauskas

14-PJ Hairston-just has pro written on him. Randy Foye

15-TJ Warren

16-Rodney Hood

17-Cleanthony Early

18-Gary Harris-Daekwon Cook

19-Aaron Gordon-bust. no passion. No position. Darius Miles.
