Call me a pessimist, but I believe we should be emotionally ready for anything and the fourth pick is a possibility. This draft IMO seems like a three man draft and there is a bit of a drop off after that, so I was curious who would everyone pick.

Well Isaac is my choice due to his upside
Jaylen Brown for All-NBA

I don't know about 3-man draft because people are singing that tune since 2003 with Lebron-Darko-Melo. And guys like Jaylen and Skal are outperforming the so called two-man in Ingram and Simmons in the two-man 2016 draft.

I'd trust Danny and his crew's judgement on this one, regardless of his decisions. But Taytum would be a nice consolation prize.

At 4 I wouldn't mind dropping down a couple of spots and selecting Lauri Markkanen.

I would take Tatum at 3, so I'd definitely take him at 4.

Right now I would guess Tatum or Jackson, depending on who has a better tourney and in doing so secures number three.

You're a pessimist.

I guess I would say Lonzo Ball since he is the 4th player on my board.

Agree.  I doubt Fultz is there at #4 so it'd be one of the other 3.  I have more questions about Ball at the next level than Tatum or Jackson but not really any firm conclusions or opinions on what he can't do, haven't seen UCLA enough. 

I'd be p---ed if we drafted Isaac with the Nets having the worst record, he's too much of a project in a draft with 4 guys who are also 18-20 & have great potential but are just way better right now too.

I've started to sour on Ball too, not only because of his father but looking at his stats he really struggles when driving and going to the free throw line but it wouldn't surprise me if Lakers picked him with their 1-3 pick.
