2016 CB Draft: Discussion thread

Thoughts on the CJ pick?

Love the Nikola Jokic pick.

Underrated in value, and a very good player overall.

Denver had playoff-caliber point differential when he was on the court and a bottom 5 differential when he was off - for a rook, that's pretty incredible. Pretty much the opposite of another young guy I can't mention here.

Thanks. I really didn't feel like going the TOTF route again, but he's just too good to pass up all around, and I think he can get to that next level sooner rather than later.

Nice scoring, but I think you left some more complete players on the board.

Nah, I love him and I'm encouraged by how well he shouldered the increased workload last season.

This pick might seem a bit surprising to some, but this guy is a monster in the advanced stats department. Top 25 in VORP and WS/48 and top 10 in real plus minus... as a rookie. Per 36 stats of:  16.5 ppg  11.6 rpg and 3.9 apg.

With the 11th pick in the 2nd round, Orlando selects Nikola Jokic

Love this pick.

Does everything you want from an offensive center - shoots, passes, rebounds, scores inside. His defensive plus-minus stats are pretty excellent too.

Oof. Where's MK? I've been on board with Big Honey since last offseason, I never imagined he'd go Round 2 though. That's on me.

I was torn between him and another player, figured a good pg will still be around in the 3rd round

Agreed, McCollum is very good. A young player who can shoot like him is extremely valuable in them modern NBA.

Thoughts on the CJ pick?

Solid pick. His 20 ppg scoring is great, and because CJ can play either guard spots, it's leaving you a lot of versatility in the upcoming rounds.

Love the Nikola Jokic pick.

Underrated in value, and a very good player overall.

He went top 50, and ahead of a couple of recent All Star big men, so not underrated at all. I'll be watching next season. His metrics are phenomenal, but he also only played 35 minutes once.

[RJ87]

There's a pretty good guy that's slipping right now.

EDIT: It wasn't D.Wade.

[RJ87]

Was really torn with this pick but with pick 2.14 Indiana Pacers select Rudy Gobert.

Jimmy and Gobert should make a strong defensive tandem.

...Still a guy I see slipping.

Thoughts on the CJ pick?

I like it. He went in the range I thought he would.
