Title: Who Would Ainge have drafted #1 this year
Post by: KG Living Legend on September 23, 2018, 02:31:46 AM: I think Ayton in the No Brainer here, But Luka cold be our next Howard but for 10 more years.

Doncic’s ceiling is pretty insane, as his playmaking in combination with his ability to get his shot off from all levels at 6’8” is crazy, and Ayton is one of the most impressive physical specimens in the NBA already as a teenager.

I voted Doncic because I like him more, but it’s a tossup betwene those two

beat me to it. ainge loves to acquire additional picks when he can. it is a brilliant tactic, part of a larger strategy to keep the team both young and affordable...plus more assets for more trades.

This upcoming draft has too many 3s. The only position we DONT need.

That really is w great call. He would have ended up with Luka plus two future firsts.

Wing is the only position that you can never have enough players on.
Dončić.

He most certainly does not have footwork to match The Dream, c’mon man.
