Yeah, I don't get the Simmons hype. Skinny kid, can't shoot, good but not special athlete. Is it just cuz he's a distributor and decent ball handler at 6'10"? Doesn't matter if he can't get his own shot.

Lots of 6'10 playmakers that can handle the ball strolling around.

 

[Jarate]

also, Simmons is an elite athlete because he's 6'10". People dont have those skills at that height

 

[jordan0386]

Lots of 6'10 playmakers that can handle the ball strolling around.

Not much better than Anthony Randolph, honestly.

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

GO LAKERS! HYPE!

 

[Tom Penny]

Not much better than Anthony Randolph, honestly.

Other than being a better rebounder, scorer and playmaker sure.

 

[jbug617]

Maker at 10?

 

[Jarate]

Maker at 10?

you'd think they'd learn fron Yi Jianlian

Anyone who watched the WCF and finals should be able to see how valuable length is in the NBA. Simmons gives you a ton of flexibility and should be able to defend 1 - 4 in a couple of years. If his jumper can just be decent that's a beast.

Simmons doesn't have great length for his size tbh. Only like +1 or 2.

Part of why I like Brandon Ingram. 6-9, but his Wingspan is 7-3.

 

[Chase17]

Please get me Butler Ainge

 

[LyleLanley]

DO IT AINGE! DO IT!

 

[Tom Penny]

Please get me Butler Ainge

Adrian Wojnarowski ✔ @WojVerticalNBA
Chicago, Boston still talking about a Jimmy Butler trade, league sources tell @TheVertical.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Don't do it Bulls don't do it
Trade Jimmy to the West

 

[darkwing-buck]

God I hope Butler doesn't go to boston :/

 

[Jarate]

GIVE OKAFOR + LA PICK FOR BUTLER NOOOO

 

[LyleLanley]

Apparently the Bulls really like Dunn as well.

 

[BlackGhost]

Are we going to have the "Tomfoolery"?

 

[Tom Penny]

Apparently the Bulls really like Dunn as well.

More than Jose Calderon?

 

[LyleLanley]

Lots of fake Woj's out there right now. Don't be a dummy.

More than Jose Calderon?

I assume not.

 

[darkwing-buck]

More than Jose Calderon?

the gawd

 

[giga]

Yahoo Sports app is on the Apple TV as well with a livestream fyi.

 

[jbug617]

Come on Danny

 

[BadAss2961]

lol, Boston. eff that. #3 ain't worth shit.

Lakers deal or just keep Jimmy.

 

[LyleLanley]

Hold out for Butler.

 

[jmizzal]

Maker at 10?

He prob better then anybody else left at that point

 

[darkwing-buck]

Hold out for Butler.

damn who says no

 

[jbug617]

C's don't do this

ESPN sources say Philadelphia is offering Nerlens Noel, No. 24 and No. 26 in tonight's draft and Robert Covington for Boston's No. 3 pick

 

[Jarate]

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Does Boston really need MORE picks?

 

[jbug617]

Crowder is in the Butler talks

 

[darkwing-buck]

lmao this crowd is great

 

[Tom Penny]

C's don't do this

I've seen worse. It would be funny 16/23/24/26/31/35 Lulz

 

[LionPride]

Crowder is in the Butler talks

Do it

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I swear they all got the same haircut

 

[Jarate]

BEN SIMMONS TIME

 

[gimmmick]

As a laker fan, I can't believe it has come down to this on getting excited for the NBA draft.

Here is to better times with Luke Walton

 

[Roland_Gunner]

C's don't do this

Aside from the lolNets, teams seem to have zero value on these picks after the top 10 or so. At that point its basically Noel and Covington for #3.

 

[Hueytothe]

Danny AInge is about to fleece a GM
bless me Danny

 

[Sanjuro]

Danny is blowing it.

 

[Chase17]

Jermaine O'Neal making the graphic

RIP Sixers.

 

[Jarate]

BEN SIMMONS IT'S HAPPENING

 

[JABEE]

[Tom Penny]

Get Butler for Crowder and pick. Flip more picks for Middleton to replace him...
