Nobody bats an eye if Doncic goes in the top 4 picks. The guy is the future of the league. Anybody who has a better age 19 and 20 year old season than LeBron has no limits. He will win multiple MVPs in his career and might get one next season. Took some heat from the Tube of all people last year for taking Doncic over Russell Westbrook. I think I was right! :lol:

Luka is probably the more fun and easier player to build around at this point. Maybe not best individually, but hes in that Giannis and LeBron category of big versatile players who is just a basketball player.

For 2020-21 I'd take Luka over LeBron. It's close, but why not bet on upside vs regression?

Nice, another trade here. Active drafts are my favorite. Hoop Dreams moving up for JR Smith now that he’s back!?

If somebody a little bit behind me has a guy you've got to have I'd be willing to move back a bit from #11. Make a good offer and we may be able to work something out! PM only please

With the 7th pick the Orlando Magic select...

James Harden

I know a lot of people like to hate on him because he flops and travels incessantly, but the dude is the NBA's leading scorer the last three seasons, All NBA First Team the last three seasons, and the 2018 NBA MVP. You can absolutely be a contender with Harden as your guy.

Decent pick. I personally would’ve taken JR Smith based on his Finals experience, but to each their own.

:lol:

I just remembered, Harden DOES have Finals experience. I think that makes him the better pick. Nice job. I thought he’d go #5 pre-draft.

No surprises through 9. Slight drop off, then the next 5 or so guys.
