Official 2016 Draft Day thread *Spoiler*
Cause I like to know as woj reveals. Usually we have two anyways so someone make the non spoiler one.
Can't wait! Been scouting all season for this!

Re: Official 2016 Draft Day thread *Spoiler*
Woj is doing a live online broadcast with Draft Express guys on the yahoo site.
I wonder if the scoops will be fewer or lag behind other reporters due to Woj being occupied with hosting a live show.
-
Re: Official 2016 Draft Day thread *Spoiler*
Good point. He'll probably be on ice texting while the show is live. Or it can go the other way and he'll just reveal everything live. I hope he tweets. Clicking refresh is fun

Re: Official 2016 Draft Day thread *Spoiler*
According to Wojtek, RC Buford will make some calls.

Re: Official 2016 Draft Day thread *Spoiler*
That's a pretty nice deal IMO, especially since Boston desperately needs frontcourt players..
Covington has no value, as Chinook predicted:lol

Ainge is playing Poker with one Ace in his hand.
He's hoping and playing like he's got pocket Aces, but I doubt it's going to play how he wants unless some GM gets stoopid.

More like semi-elite 2-way player with a name that Ainge wants to bank on since the team cannot take on more rookies.

Ainge also loved the fact that Jaylen Brown worked out against anyone and everyone — unlike all the other top guys.

5th pick + Lavine for Jimmy Butler. Can't believe Minny didn't take that
Towns-Butler-Wiggins would've been tough.

Holy fuck, Wolves could have had Butler for the #5 and LaVine. How did Thibs turn that shit down?

Bill Simmons @BillSimmons 53s54 seconds ago Thibs would have traded 5 to Chicago if they weren't complete assholes to him for 3 solid years.

Kind of a headscratcher. I would have taken butler. He is a known commodity with a high ceiling.
If dunn pans out you got to move rubio, which is tough to do it seems.
