drafting Tyler Zeller is not a bad idea either

I'll play along...

PG: Rondo
SG: OJ Mayo (via trade, I think Memphis could bite on Ray Allen - he'd fit with their system)
SF: Paul Pierce / Jeff Green
PF: I have no idea, JuJuan is just too skinny to be able to defend NBA PF's.
C: JaVale McGee (def not happening since he's an RFA, but I can dream)
2021 Houston Rockets
PG: Kyrie Irving/Patty Mills/Jalen Brunson
SG: OG Anunoby/Norman Powell/Matisse Thybulle
SF: Gordon Hayward/Demar Derozan
PF: Giannis Antetokounmpo/Robert Covington
C: Kristaps Porzingis/Bobby Portis/James Wiseman

  • We may as well put Tyrion in at center.
Rondo , Scrub
Dahntay Jones, Bradley
Green, Pierce
JJJ, Bass , Scalabrine
Hibbert, Dalembert

I like Marcus Smart

C: Roy Hibbert
PF: Gerald Wallace
SF: Paul Pierce/Jeff Green (if Ray Allen/KG both sign back on for cheap money maybe Pierce would want to play with them off the bench and make Green the starter.)
SG: O.J Mayo
PG: Rajon Rondo (I don't believe teams should waste spending max contracts on elite pointguards...Better of spending the dough on C/PF/SF, and Rondo is an excellent complimentary player at a reasonable price...You wouldn't know it lately around here.  ::)).

If Allen and KG agree to return for near Vet minimum contracts, I would totally bring them back as bench players.

Hey, in a way it is refreshing to be in complete rebuilding mode/have a crappy team. Getting young talent will eventually lead to blockbuster trades...Especially with Ainge.

indeed, you  have to be terrible for a while before you can be great again.  if you just spend money for the sake of putting out recognizable names (e.g. spending lots of money on Gerald Wallace to start him at PF, ahem), you're just gonna be middle-of-the-road at best.

I agree that we should concentrate on sucking for a few years after this year, but Ainge is too antsy...He won't like doing that.

i think ainge will make bold moves to rebuild as quickly as possible.  if he can't pull of moves to get an established star -- like he tried to do with chris paul -- i think he'll try to trade for top young talent in the hopes of landing the next young superstar. 

one thing i am confident ainge will not do is cobble together a team of pseudo-stars just to compete for an 7th / 8th seed for the next 5 years.

  • Eagerly Awaiting the Next Fantasy Draft
1. Rondo
2. Austin Rivers
3. Jeff Green
4. Josh Smith
5. Jj Johnson

Doc talked about wanting to install a new offense in camp but there not being enough time. A lot if players on the team mentioned running a faster system this year. Next year we go all in with Rondo and grab some young athletic guys to play d and run with rondo. Smith either comes here in a trade or via amnesy cut next year after he complains and atl decides they want to save money. Rivers comes here after we package picks to move up. Jjj adds about ten or fifteen lbs of muscle then becomes a channing frye type player in our new uptempo offense. Maybe moore or bradley steps up and we don't need to move up to get rivers. In that case we pick some athletic bigs like plumlee or the dude from vandy.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

It's clear that there's a serious problem with the way the NBA draft is set up when a significant portion of a team's fan base actually start to root for the team to get terrible so they can have a chance at winning the ping pong balls.

Let's get rid of the draft lottery for the worst teams  and make a random order for all thirty teams in the league.  Better yet, I wouldn't mind seeing the draft eliminated all together.

I'm not exactly sure how to work out the details, but for me the honor, integrity, and competitive spirit of what sports are all about are getting lost if half the league's goal is trying to race to the bottom.  

DKC Seventy-Sixers:

PG: G. Hill/D. Schroder

SF:  Giannis/J. Lamb/M. Kuzminskas
PF:  E. Ilyasova/J. Jerebko/R. Christmas

im with you.  if you're not a contender, or a couple moves / a year or two of development away from being one, it's in your best interest as a team to lose as many games as possible so you can have better draft position.

im not sure what the right solution to that issue is, though.  i don't believe that eliminating the draft or making the order random is the right one.  there shouldn't be any chance that a team that's already stacked gets a top talent in the draft, unless they've acquired a draft pick from a lesser team several years prior (i.e., smart dealing).
