Draft talk (yeeeah that early)

[StephenHawking]

After tonight's game it's time to start talking about useful draft prospects. Who do you like in the upcoming draft? On what kind of player should the Hawks build on?

Why bother? Bud doesn't play talented rookies.

Good point

Ivan Rabb ...cal guy should go in the top 8.

 

Frank Jackson...Duke combo guard should go top 20, but prolly 15.

[NBASupes]

Josh Jackson

Harry Giles

Of course there are others.

[StephenHawking]

I'd trade Millsap for Batum then I'd have this: 

Schröder 

Batum 

Prince 

Hartenstein or Giles 

Howard

 

My draft pick would be isaiah hartenstein but Giles would also be a possibility

We are in big trouble folks.

Miles Bridges

Most likely a power forward or a trade

This draft is very deep with perimeter players and less high-level bigs than the last two years.

Ivan Rabb, Harry Giles

Both are talented, but have issues at the same time-

Rabb plays more like a center and may struggle on the perimeter offensively and defensively.

Harry Giles has had meniscus surgery and ACL surgery twice which could be a problem seeing as he relies heavily on athleticism and quickness.

If this doesn't turn around they could package the pick with a couple players and trade for some young assets.

Not getting either of those guys as they are probably top 5 guys. You need to be more realistic. We won't have a bottom 5 type record, heck we probably aren't a lottery team. We would have to trade up to get either of those guys.

Be realistic. If Bud continues to play 4 out and 1 in basketball, it ain't getting better this season. Take your homer glasses off, it's as bad as it looks if it continues this way with no adjustments.

That's just the thing. We aren't going to continue this way of losing due to the schedule alone. Combine that with the fact that we have a bunch of key veteran guys, no way we plunge to the lottery unless we trade Sap and maybe a couple more vets like Kyle and Thabo.

[GABALLA]

Dwayne Bacon?

[Mdizzle5]

We need to draft BPA. Preferably one that can dribble and create. Oh, and can be starter material in the nearest of futures. 

It be nice if they had future AS talent too.

Thats a short grocery list but certainly a quality one and would be very welcomed. 

[Kimsey]

He love playing his 2nd rounders above everyone else.
