Title: HE says he can go #1 in Draft
Post by: MUFlutieEffect on May 17, 2016, 07:31:26 PM
From SI:

Teams haven't given him any clues that he might actually go #1, but instead "it's just me being confident."

He may have been smoking that reefer. No one but Simmons going first

Ingram would be the smart choice.

Henry always seemed a little goofy.

He has a much greater chance to be the last player in the green room than going first in the draft.

Disagree.  He'll be a lot closer to 1 than to whatever number the last guy in attendance goes.

I don't know about that, plenty of people want Ingram over Simmons.

Yup.  And they should.  I don't think the 6ers are smart enough for that though.

How many guys are in the green room?  We know he has zero shot at #1.   That isn't happening, but there has to be at least a 1% shot he is the last guy in the green room.

He could go 4 overall but I would still say he had a better chance at falling to 15 than being the #1. This draft is Simmons>>Ingram>>>>Bender>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>everyone else.

Which is perfect for the wolves. Because Murray is gonna be a star and gonna fall right in their laps.

Unless they go Dunn(hope this is only if Murray is gone).

Lakers a good bet for Dunn if they don't trade the pick

ChicoBailBonds got it right. I made no comment on where he would be drafted. Just that his odds of being last in the green room are greater than his odds of being drafted #1.

And I'll say they are equally as great as one another, both being a total of 0%.

They took a nearly identical player with their first round pick last year...

You have a 20 year old Russell and a 23 year old Clarkson in your backcourt and both look like they have very long, bright futures ahead, and you'll have a much better either Simmons or Ingram (or Bender) available at the exact spot that is opening up on your roster (SF).  Taking Dunn would probably be the worst pick they could make there.

I would disagree.  0% chance at #1, everything else is greater than 0%.

I'll stick with 0% chance he goes #1 and 0% chance he's the last person drafted that is invited to the green room.
