Go on record 2020 #1

Post by Style »

Sometime between now and the draft, go on record with "your guy" at #1. No need for some long explanation or back and forth debates. Plenty of other threads for that. Simply type the player's name you'd take at #1. This is for future accountability! :coolio:

No need to do it immediately, and you can always edit up until the draft. But once the draft starts, you are locked in with "your guy" for better or for worse. History will tell us who was right!

No "I'd trade out" either. We don't know the offers. Assume we're staying at #1. This also isn't a guess of who you think will be taken.

I'll go with Haliburton. I like that high release, he's smart, pretty athletic.

I don't see Wiseman, Ball, or Edwards being the best player from this draft.

Toppin has a shot. He's just so tremendous on offense.

Maxey has a real shot in a LouWill 6th man type role. (Tyrell Terry too.)

Saddiq Bey is well-rounded and has a shot.

Avdija has a shot. I like Bey more than him tho.

You must have missed the "No need for a long explanation" part.

I think Wiseman is the best of the top 3. I want us to take Edwards because good or bad, he will be fun.

I think Hayes becomes the best player overall. So I'd take him #1. I think he's a CJ McCollum-ish level player.

No explanations needed. Follow Sergeant Rubetube's lead. This is a one name exercise.

Name the player YOU would take at #1.

Haliburton.

Edited 11/17/20.

Now I’d take Wiseman.

I really would love to see Obi Toppin dropped right in the starting lineup.

I just have an odd feeling we end up with Deni and Aaron Gordon on draft night.

If I was making the pick for the Minnesota Timberwolves, Anthony Edwards would be the first pick in the draft.

Last year most here preferred Garland while I was all for Culver, so we will have to see how that plays out over the next few years.

Edwards, all in! and best fit for Wolves.

If he sucks and proves me wrong, o well, no one was a clear #1 favorite for me this year.

:thinking: I like this idea. Get on the phone Rosas!! Would the Bulls do this? 6th pick last year, mid first and the most valuable 2nd..

After the trade and when we were on the clock I was on White. He would’ve been my pick at that spot.

I would not be mad with Deni at 1. I don't want Wiseman or Edwards. Would be fine with Ball. Want Toppin, but Deni is very intriguing..
