Another fantasy scenario. It’ll never happen but just imagine if it did.

Buddy hield and Bogdanovic are good players but neither is a star. So Sacramento takes imo the best prospect in the draft in Doncic. Then they trade Bogdanovic to Portland for #24. We absorb his contract with the Crabbe TPE.

Then we trade CJ to Orlando for Biyombo, Simmons, and #6. Take your pick who we’d draft at 6. We could probably land one of Jackson, Bamba, and Porter Jr.
 
This is the deepest top 11 I have seen in years. Maybe ever. It falls way off after that though. I wouldn't want pick 16 vs pick 24 if I was an owner paying salaries, personally. Don't see the difference this year. I would rather have pick 31 then 24 (just this year).

Exactly, it’s top heavy followed by a bunch of guys who could all go at 24 in any given year.
 
It’s the deepest lottery I have every seen in terms of upside... lots of players with unique physical attributes to match skill/production.
 
I'd like to see Olshey get a 2nd round pick and draft Melvin Frazier. Explosive athlete, 3&D guy.
 
But hey they’re saying sac will take Doncic at 2 so my Bogdanovic dream is alive baby!!!

You posted the Kostas stuff the same day they tweeted it. Same with the trae young/atl and Porter jr/grizzlies stuff. Pretty cool coincidence.

I received info before hand on all of them. You're implying that I'm copying it off of there, but why would I? Literally just trying to bring you guys some insider stuff that might not got the news but you're gonna go and post like an ass because of it. Nice. Nevermind.

Your “insider stuff” was pretty much their tweets, verbatim. You also haven’t posted one “scoop” that they also haven’t tweeted about. Like who are you trying to fool? They don’t have a big following, they should get credit for their work instead of you trying to pretend like you’re an insider. But I’m the ass. Aiight.
 
Apparently Sixers are willing to trade into the top 5 to take one player they particularly like. This must surely be Doncic as they don’t need a big and I doubt they would want to take a flyer on yet another injured player (Porter). Outside chance for Trae Young.

Grizzlies pick might be available for them if they are willing to take Parsons but that would completely take them out of LeBron race which I doubt they are willing to do.

Doncic, Simmons and Embiid would be very cool. If Fultz gets back to his best that’s a mean team. They might actually be better of doing this than gunning for LeBron and Kawhi as this will put their window for success 4-5 years away and at that point both Warriors and maybe the new Lakers super team (if it happens) will fade.

Your falsely accusing someone of something, so yes, you're acting like an ass. I'm not copying their tweets bro. You're making assumptions and trying to call be out for false shit. I'm not an insider. You realize we could be hearing the same stuff right? Because rumors get spread?

You're trying to assassinate my character over your own false assumptions because of a coincidence.

If I hear that somewhere else that means your couldn't have heard it elsewhere and must have heard it from that EXACT source, right @Scalma ?
 
Nobody was paying that Twitter site attention bro. There's so many random ass Twitter pages like that that post false rumors and shit. Why would I be taking shit from a twitter page that a week ago had maybe only 1,000 followers, and has been wrong on many things in the past, and would be repeating it acting as if it's true? Get a grip.
 
Kevin Huerter is still my guy.

Would probably have to trade up to secure him, but I think he both could help right away as a Connaughton replacement plus have enough upside as a starting SG to open up a possible CJ trade in the future.

I also like him a lot but I don’t expect him to still be available at 24. These minor trade ups are tricky in that you need to actually offer some incentive but it very easily can become an overlay. It makes more sense to move up from 24 to 10-15 range than to 18-21 as then your assets to move up become clearer.

Why so defensive?

You said yourself that you “get similar info” so obviously you’ve payed attention.

Look at your posts. Almost verbatim. On the same day. And you claim it’s a coincidence? Hah! Now you’re just insulting our intelligence.

I await your first scoop that “Draftgods” haven’t tweeted out beforehand. It’ll be your first. But somehow I think this will be the end. Oops.

@JDC are you going to join us in our mock off season? You haven't been answering messages.

I've answered most but yeah, work has been busy and really haven't had the time to be as involved in it as I planned.

Things are slowing down though so I should be more active.

Great, thanks for responding! It's a lot better than just vanishing!
 
I was trying to do a mock draft now and had Jaren Jackson fall to no. 7. This is strange but Ayton, Bagley, Doncic, Porter, Bamba and Young went ahead of him and it’s not unthinkable that they will also do so in the actual draft.

That would be crazy.

Why so defensive? Because I don't like punk posts that make assumptions and attempt to attack my character with false accusations over petty crap.

I noticed because my source showed me the Twitter page after a while and said "they're getting the same info I'm getting".. I was repeating what he was telling me, we talked about Kostas before that tweet too.

That fact that doing all this is weak bro. Go get some European sun.

Not so sunny here but it was burning hot for the last month and a half so we are due some cool air.

Doing some Euro traveling this Summer again, might actually visit Switzerland for the first time. Salzburg first though.
