My 6th Rebuild 6 Report post Posted May 22, 2017 Call me crazy but I think Ball is slightly overrated. I am not sure if he is even better than Fox or Smith at the PG position. Fox did outplayed him and his defense is way much better. Smith is a very intriguing guy that can be as good as fultz or as "bad" as Muday. The Lakers will make a big mistake by taking Ball over Jackson. Jackson and tatum are both better options for them at the moment. You just hate him because of his arrogance, the Lakers, and his dad. Celtics will make the mistake if they pick Fultz over Ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mauro Pedrosa 1,037 Report post Posted May 22, 2017 Because Ball is going to make others around him better. I think everyone wishes he will do bad because he is forcing himself to the Lakers and his dad running his big mouth.... Fultz? He's going to be the best player on a lottery team for many years to come. I think Fultz will be a Lillard type of player. Explosive PG that will want to be the #1 option on your team but won't get you past the giants. I love Lonzo, and while not as good of a #1 option, I think he's a tremendous facilitator and he's what I'd want from my starting PG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
My 6th Rebuild 6 Report post Posted May 22, 2017 yeah. Ball is either going to be a revolutionary player like a steve nash who catches alley oops or unable to play point guard in the nba because he's relatively slow and cant bring the ball up. That's why you take Ball over Fultz..... #1 pick..... Uh-oh is that Kevin Costner calling for Ainge? "Earvin, you give me #2 and a future 1st or I will take Ball."

If Fultz falls to 6, I would trade out of the 6th pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mauro Pedrosa 1,037 Report post Posted May 23, 2017 Fultz is terrific, like Kyrie Irving is terrific. I think your best bet to contend is by having your PG as the second best player. LeBron was able to contain Kyrie a little bit, but there aren't that many LeBrons in the league. PGs like that have big egos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A Better DJ & Photographer 473 Report post Posted May 23, 2017 Given we'll potentially have four rookies on the roster, I think Mario's leash is going to be very short. While I hope I'm wrong, I have very little confidence he's an NBA player. I agree 100%. As much as I really wanted him to be everything that we all hoped he would be if it was me in charge he would already be gone. We need players, not projects, hopes, and dreams!

No Balls please.... we don't need a draft bust and a loud mouth father on the daily news cycle telling the world how his son is getting raked by whatever NBA team that doesn't cater. Let the Lakers take him and the laughs continue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,455 Report post Posted May 23, 2017 "The Magic is, once again, starting over, looking for a new GM who surely will take a blowtorch to what is a mishmash of a roster. Other than Aaron Gordon, back at the four after a strange attempt to make him a 3-and-D guy last season, there’s no certainty anywhere. Point guard Elfrid Payton showed promising signs of growth last season but is still ghastly from 3-point range (27.4 percent last season), exemplifying a team-wide trend. Orlando was 29th overall in 3-point shooting and last in the league in corner 3-point percentage (29.7). How is that even possible in this age? Monk’s shooting (39.7 percent on 3-pointes last season at Kentucky) and scoring ability would make a lot of sense here." http://www.nba.com/article/2017/05/22/morning-tip-what-could-happen-next-now-nba-draft-lottery-settled Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ibn Battuta 127 Report post Posted May 23, 2017 I really hope we draft all 4 players and don't trade away any picks. That's a really difficult sell tbh. If that's the way you want to go then you have to temper expectations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
