We're trading a buttload of picks to move up to the #1 from Philly.

Philly gets Dunn and enough picks to make Hinkie smile, Boston gets Ben Simmons to replace the walking cheeseburger that is Jared Sullinger.

Hinkie is long gone from the Sixers.

Doesn't mean we can't make him smile

Honestly though, I think he would start to cry.  He finally gets the #1 pick he wanted and ownership gives the reigns to someone that trades it?  That would be too much
I'm bitter.

I think Lakers will take Brown. We will trade Ingram for Butler.

This would be pretty close to ideal. I think Ingram is more Thayshaun Prince than KD. I think Jaylen Brown's ceiling is close to Butler. I'll take Butler until we have a chance to draft/sign a superstar.

The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.

Can we get a poll on this?
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Khris Dunn,Buddy Hield or Jaylen Brown.

With the constant chatter of teams loving Dunn, it seems more and more likely that we'll take him due solely to being able to swing him in a deal somewhere. I can't imagine that he gets past three after all of these reports in the last two days.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

I'm calling Ingram because I'm in a good, optimistic mood

Jamal Murray.  Cannot believe more here are not pushing for this guy.  We need a dead eye long range shooter.  Love Danny but he just a fair drafter and will most likely go for his usual best athlete that cannot shoot.  Smart, Rozier, T Allen, Banks ect.  Jaylen Brown sure does fit but I cannot handle all the clanks much longer.  This team cannot shoot and Jamal Murray is special.  I think Calapari may be correct in saying he is the best player in the draft.  Get us a SHOOTER Danny.  I beg.

He is a very good shooter. But why can't you grab good shooters later in the draft??

A guy with Browns combination of physical tools/skills do not exist later in the draft

Maybe Dembry . But he is 6'5

Only shooters you will find later in the draft are your RJ Hunters and James Youngs.  There is something about Murrays game that is special.  He just has a savvy about him on the court and that jumper is Curryish.  Worried about that J on Brown.  Just tired of the bricks.

Agree. I hope Murray (or even Hield) is the guy. But knowing Danny, he will take Brown. I just know it. I'll be very happy if he surprises me and doesn't take him. But if I was a betting man, I would bet a decent amount of money that he will take Brown.

I think it's between Dunn, Hield and Brown.
