2015 NBA Draft

[Gladiator]

Lakers move into the top 3.

[TOO]

Hahaha, fucking Lakers move up.

[Sunsfan4life]

Lakers,Sixers,Wolves

[Cap]

The actual lottery has already happened - we've either lucked into a top 3 pick or not. The televised lottery is just for show.
I'm trying hard not to get my hopes up that we'll get into the top 3 but it's hard not to wish/hope/dream!

There's always a first time. Right? Right???

The first time was Gilliam. Consolation prize after DRob. It didn't work out so great. We're still waiting for the second time.

Had that pick fallen out of the top 5, Brandin Knight may have immediately become a villain here haha.

Knicks fall out of the top 3....come in Phil, you know u want to trade that pick.

[Sunsfan4life]

annnnddddd the west gets stronger.

I think that pick is now well and truly on the table

[TOO]

Alright, so now that LA has #2, capspace, Clarkson, Kobe and Randle returning next year, how bad does the Knight trade look? Wouldn't be surprised 1 bit if they are better than us next year.

FTFY.

Waaaay too early to tell. Knight may not even sign with us, for example. I still don't like the trade, even if it turns out ok.

LA getting the #2 pick is bittersweet for me. I'm happy that it didn't drop out of the top 5, but at the same time LA gets the 2nd pick in the draft. I don't follow college too closely so I have no idea how good this years prospects are, can anyone fill me in on if Okafor or Towns possess ability to be a franchise player?

He's a restricted FA. The Suns are going to resign Knight period, especially considering what they gave up for him.

Haha, so you'll dislike it like no matter what happens?

Yup. For better or worse, I believe Knight is seen as a core piece.

[iLLmatic]

^ I'd prefer Knight over Bledsoe going forward tbh.

[Sunsfan4life]

Bledsoe for #4 and change.

Suns take Mudiay at #4.

Just thinking out loud....

Does anyone else think Kobe will be beating the table for D'Angelo russel. I think towns has the potential to be the best player in this draft, but Russel may be most NBA Ready.

I get that he's a restricted free agent. It is possible though that he signs a contract the Suns don't want to match (highly unlikely but still). The more likely possibility is he signs a contract the Suns don't really want to match (or perhaps shouldn't match), but do anyway because of what they gave up for him

Look I hope it works out well for them. But at the time, there's no way I would have made that trade. In my opinion if it works out great, it's more good luck than a good trade

Draft express and nbadraft.net both have us taking Devin Booker at 13.
