Chad Ford just released his first mock draft for 2015, and had us finishing 4th worst.
So.....
If we finish bottom 5 in the NBA this upcoming season, what players do you want the Celtics to draft the most in 2015? For fun, we'll also include our picks from Clippers pick.Our own 2015 pick (speculating that we get a top 5 pick)Players I like so far
1) Jahlil Okafor- very skilled, quick footed, quick handed, huge center
2) Emmanual Muiday- point guard- like John Wall but with better shooting (although streaky)
3) Karl Towns-Point forward /Center- the black Dirk Nowitzki. 7 foot 1 monster with point guard ball skills and very good shooting. Potential Hall of Famer if it somehow comes altogether for him.
4) Stanley Johnson- SF- Hard working kid who's built and improved his game the hard way, very strong overall game, weaknesses slowly disappearing.
5) Kelly Oubre- SG- Very talented, gifted athlete and body control/opponent manipulation skills ala Rondo and Pierce. Very good shooter with dribble drive game and strong finishing ability.
Could be the best shooting guard in the league one day.
Clippers pick: (ends up between pick #25-30) Chris Walker- SF- freakish athlete- once in a generational athlete like Andrew Wiggins, or Gerald Green... but more length, strength and co-ordination than other 6 foot 10 wing monsters like. Excellent instincts and smooth finishing ability.
Some footage-keep in mind these are streetball clips often against no defense.'Grain of salt' viewing if you will....
So who do you like the look of so far? And have you been watching them long or only from the vids below? EMMANUAL MUIDAY
