Event 2018 NBA Draft

[UKRAINEFAN]

Melvin Frazier another guy who could fall to second round. Do you have the cash plus a future 2nd ready, Olshey?

 

[Pinwheel1]

Well he is young and full of potential. Might be good trade bait in the next year.

 

[BlayZa]

a 6'3" combo guard.

hard to argue we dont love those.

 

[Chris Craig]

Does this mean we're letting Napier go elsewhere?

Yep

 

[BonesJones]

I'm meh on this pick. Theres just better players on the board that couldve helped us right away.

 

[BonesJones]

a 6'3" combo guard.

hard to argue we dont love those.

Hes 6'4, but yeah, we love those. Or white big men.

It's predictable.

 

[BonesJones]

Hes horrible.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

a 6'3" combo guard.

Yeah Blazers got a thing for combo guards and tall skinny white dudes.

 

[noknobs]

Good. If there was one thing I felt we needed as I watched Portland get swept in the playoffs it was a 19 year old guard out of prep school.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I'm calling it boys:

"This is a guy we were glad to see at this point in the draft"

"Someone we've had our eyes on for a long time"

"We got the guy we wanted"

"He fits the trajectory of this team"

One of those things will be said by olshey

“Look, Anfernee worked out extremely well for us. So well we invited him twice, we’ve been following his career with great interest. Now, will he make an immediate impact? It’s possible but let’s pump the breaks... we will develop him and go from there. See y’all during summer league.”

 

[BonesJones]

Frazier wont be a good shooter, his form doesnt translate IMO.

 

[riverman]

I'm meh on this pick. Theres just better players on the board that couldve helped us right away.

I think it's vets that are going to help us right away this time around...I'm guessing nobody wanted the 24th pick in a trade

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I'm cool with Simons. May end up being a fantastic pick.

Yeah, like Jermaine O'Neal - for his next team. In six years.

 

[BonesJones]

Good. If there was one thing I felt we needed as I watched Portland get swept in the playoffs it was a 19 year old guard out of prep school.

Lol.

 

[tykendo]

Lakers puttin' on Moritz. Looks like Meyers

 

[BonesJones]

I think it's vets that are going to help us right away this time around...I'm guessing nobody wanted the 24th pick in a trade

Khyri Thomas and Elie Okobo would've helped us right away.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Thank you Lakers for making me feel better.

 

[DDolla]

Meyers and Evan still a Blazers.... DRINK

 

[BonesJones]

I'll be shocked if Philadelphia doesn't take Okobo.

 

[BonesJones]

I actually think Wagner can be really good.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Hes horrible.

I guess this is the part you don't like? "his long wind-up shot and tendency to crow-hop into 3-pointers is concerning".

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

I actually think Wagner can be really good.

Bobby Wagner is really good, at football!

 

[BonesJones]

I guess this is the part you don't like? "his long wind-up shot and tendency to crow-hop into 3-pointers is concerning".

That, heard he has character concerns, has no ball skills, isn't a good enough athlete to make up for it.

 

[riverman]

Khyri Thomas and Elie Okobo would've helped us right away.

I would have drafted Okobo personally but Simmons has a really quick release and can shoot from anywhere off the dribble...they love his shooting and ball handling enough to invest in him is my guess.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

My prediction for the 2018/19 season? Warriors 3 peat and me maybe watching 40 blazer games total.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I would have drafted Okobo personally but Simmons has a really quick release and can shoot from anywhere off the dribble...they love his shooting and ball handling enough to invest in him is my guess.

Simons*

 

[BonesJones]

I would have drafted Okobo personally but Simmons has a really quick release and can shoot from anywhere off the dribble...they love his shooting and ball handling enough to invest in him is my guess.

I don't hate the pick, I see the upside, just think he's just as likely to never be as good as Okobo and Thomas as he is to reach his full potential.

 

[DDolla]

imagine on a close game with Simons and Dame... “Simons say, it’s Dame Time” perfection

 

[BonesJones]

Boy Robert Williams has fallen far.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Khyri Thomas and Elie Okobo would've helped us right away.

Maybe we can still get one; I am trying to stay optimistic!
