I actually thought about him with my 3rd round pick. If you surround him with guys that can score, there’s nobody I’d rather have at the 5.
Rupp Rafters NBA Draft Cowtown Cat Champion!
- Thread starter DraftCat
- Start date
Give me a 6’9 athletic freak averaging 21, 10 and 2 blocks a game. One of the best offensive rebounders in the game and shooting 40% from 3 at 4 attempts a game. Ranks 5th in the NBA at eFG% all while being 22 years old. I’ll take John Collins. Was hoping I may be able to scoop up Collins in the 4th but since LaVine got sniped I’ll take him now.

Give me a guy averaging nearly 20 and 10 and is a former Cat. Julius Randle. @UKNorse
I'm not either but it seems I always get paired against @GonzoCat90 and I do enjoy arguing with him.
Wasn't too thrilled seeing Kristaps Porziņģis and John Collins off the board... BUT sometimes you have to pivot and choose a more promising big man.
21 year old Deandre Ayton. 19 points 12 rebounds and nearly 2 blocks per game.

Lol gotta do what you gotta do... steroids have the least competitive impact in basketball. Maybe helps recovery time but oh well !
I for one welcome anyone on my team to partake in steroids. I don’t care about integrity I want to win championships!
Ok. I hate him. We all hate him. But it cannot be denied the impact he makes when surrounded by talented players. He’s already shown he can coexist well with Durant and win titles. He makes everyone better with his passing ability and is also a lockdown defender. Durant, Booker, and Draymond form a nucleus so similar to what had been winning titles in Golden State, love them or hate them. He just makes sense. Give me a great defender and glue guy, Draymond Green.
He’s 33, but fresh off one of the best seasons of his career, and one of the last 2020 all stars remaining in the draft. He’s a 6 time all star and NBA champion. Give me Kyle Lowry

Going with another young guy... 24 years old shooting guard D'Angelo Russell.
Lebron has some shooters around him watch out!

@GoBigBlue712
Yup although to be honest you may want to save those for your last two picks. Hard to really sell voters on an unproven product
Give me a guy who has shot 41% from 3 in his career. Buddy Hield. @jwhite123
I’ll take one of the best 2 way guards in the league at only 23. 7th in the NBA in DWS and has started coming into his own as a scorer. Another 20 ppg scorer, 6 rpg on the wing and has grown to be a good 3pt shooter at 38%. Give me Jaylen Brown.
@WilmoreCat otc
I’ll take a off-ball shooting guard averaging 20,7, and 5. Give me Jrue Holiday

Was really hoping he’d fall 3 more picks. He’s always overlooked
Im gonna go with another talented scorer whos in his prime and should be for the next handful of years. Tobias Harris.

You guys killed me with these last few picks, lol. I guess I’ll take Danilo Gallinari since he can score & play either F position.

Correct me if I missed it because I thought at my last pick I had to choose between SGA and this guy but I don't see him off the board.
20 years old. 6'11. 7'4 wingspan. Stellar athleticism. Top ten in blocks despite only playing 28 minutes per game. More made 3's than Booker or Middleton.
Casual fans don't know yet, but NBA guys know this kid is on a rocket to superstardom.
22/6/2/2 per 36 on nearly 40% shooting from 3. He's the perfect modern big to switch everything, protect the rim, and kill you from three.
He shot 42% from 3 on pick and pops. He shot FIFTY FIVE PERCENT as the third man in PnR and FIFTY TWO PERCENT on dribble handoffs and pin down action.
You'll never guess where Luka Doncic was at his best.
Give me Jaren Jackson Jr. F/C

Considered him along with SGA at my pick. I like Brown's physicality and athleticism.
Nah. I'm going down in the semis. As soon as the teams are close I'm toast every year.
The fun is in the drafting and discussion anyway. Sometimes we don't even finish the voting.
One of my favorite players in the league. Extremely undervalued in today’s game with his length and like you said, athleticism. His jump as a scorer makes him one of the best complimentary pieces in the NBA right now, IMO
Okay so it’s getting close to being my pick. I’m curious as to whether I get one or two this time? Seems like I would get two but I’m not real sure. Someone fill me in. TIA.
