Not sure how much insight Bill Simmons actually has, but he says we want Murray.
What's funny is that the ONLY contacts he really has are with the Celtics and even with those he has a hard time figuring out what they are doing each year.

Yeah, I thought that was funny too and thought that it could possibly be intentional misinformation to help the Celtics.

If I had to guess I think it's Dunn, Hield, then Murray for us. What the hell do I know tho?!

Might as well fart into a jar then try to decipher which player it smells the most like. That's how much insight Bill Simmons has.

I have no idea how bad they want him. But I was told two weeks ago from someone inside that they think he is more pro ready than most Freshman and more mature than most guys his age. FWIW

Jaylen Brown hit 76/100 three point shots at his workout for the Celtics. Murray hit 79/100 and Hield it 85/100. Looking like Brown will be the pick for Celtics at 3 if they don't trade it.

So our draft depends on what Minny does right? If it goes gown like that and the Suns choose Chriss or Bender.

The draft really starts when the celtics pick. They are the key to the whole draft. If they pick Brown, I think we end up with Hield or Murray. If they pick Jamal Murray, then I think we end up with Jaylen Brown or trading the pick.

While it may not be draft related per se the Kings are interested in moving Ben McLemore...would he be a good guy to get to come off the bench? Aren't he and AD good friends?

I admitly don't follow the Pelicans a lot, but why wouldn't we want buddy? Don't we need a shooter?

A while back they were dating 2 sisters with a crazy mom. You tend to bond over things like that.

I like Buddy. The argument against him is that he's old and one dimensional.

Because that's literally all he is.

Eta: I like him too but I'd pick Dunn, okafor trade and probably even Murray before him.

shite I'm interested more in jaylen brown too. I like the gamble

Yeah that's what I thought...I don't know if he'd be a good fit but what I do know of his game is that he can jump out of a gym...that's why I thought he'd be a good bench piece...from what I read he's a hard worker but his game just hasn't translated

I'd say our draft depends on who trades ahead of us

Oh I think that if Buddy is there when we pick, we grab him. Without a doubt

If you go watch his highlights, he has evolved a lot. He can dunk the ball, which is something Tyreke and Eric Gordon never do. He can finish around the rim, as he has many different moves around the rim. I've seen him chase down players from behind and block their shots off of the backboard. Hes ALOT more than just a shooter, and he continues to improve every year, and will continue to do so.

So all this discussion is for not? I mean it's almost a given that he'll be there at #6.
