Here's how the Top 6 of tonight's NBA Draft is taking shape: 1. Suns: Deandre Ayton. 2. Kings: Marvin Bagley Jr.; 3. Hawks: Luka Doncic; 4. Jaren Jackson, Jr.; 5. Mavericks: Mo Bamba; 6. Magic: Trae Young.

There were reports the Mavs feel confident they can get Demarcus in free agency. Do y'all think Danny throws the sink at them for him? Anybody scared of him giving in with a Winslow type offer if he's their guy and throws in Jaylen?

What a coup for the Hawks if they get Luka with the 3rd pick.

I find it interesting he list each team next to the pick except the 4th pick...I wonder if he is hearing that a trade is coming

No way. Mo Bamba is getting crazy hype right now. I believe that he will be overvalued by NBA teams pining for a talented big man. I'm ok sitting on sidelines while other GMs outbid each other for a young guy with great measurables and a questionable handle of the NBA game. He's raw.

Jaylen for Mamba?

Yeah no thanks.

I'm always wary on players who are lanky, but not super skilled defensive big men. Big men like those usually fall later in the lottery, not in the top 5.

I would offer Rozier, Morris, #27 this year and the Kings pick next year to move up.

im not saying I'd do it but we saw with Winslow what he offered. Celts seem real high on him

Lot to give up i think...that Sac pick may be a top 3 pick next season
C/PF-Horford, Baynes, Noel, Theis, Morris,
SF/SG- Tatum, Brown, Hayward, Smart, Semi, Clark
PG- Irving, Rozier, Larkin

I'd love to move up and grab Bamba if it could be done without surrendering Brown, though I don't think it will happen. But, I'm struck by the idea of Young to the magic so high. That just feels like a huge reach for a franchise that really can't afford to miss at that spot.

Ainge's end game was to get someone like Winslow who could eventually become Jaylen Brown.

You don't trade Brown for Bamba, no matter how well his measurements/vertical/standing reach is.

You trade for Bamba to put him next to Brown, Tatum, and Kyrie/Hayward/Horford.

Giving up Brown for the 5th pick in the draft would be beyond ridiculous. You draft a guy 3rd, he turns out to be a better player than you could have hoped, and you then trade him for a lower draft pick. What sort of clown would make that trade?

The ONLY player I even consider trading Brown for is Leonard. That is it.

Imagine if we did trade Brown for Leonard...and still somehow moved up in the draft and got our replacement for Al too...

...combined with the return of Irving, Hayward and Theis.

...add in Dwight Howard just because he takes a look at this roster and decides he HAS to be part of history!

Who stops this team then?

Isn't it common knowledge that the pick is being shopped around?
