    Bet Lonzo Ball to be #1 NBA draft pick?

    He was in the discussion for top 5 but with pressure and tourney season coming up he is showing out. Who would you compare him to? I see a big PG like Jason Kidd but better shooter, lesser passer.

    He just closed out Oregon!


    edit- he is +325 at BetOnline

    He can shoot. His brother had 92 points in his last high school game.

    His brother had like 30+ Uncontested layups when he cherry picked and didn't even cross half court to defend. It was disgraceful.

    Kid can shoot and based on that deep 3 he's got the balls to pull up. The NBA is definitely watching

    10x? I think there is a fair argument to be made but that is just stupid.

    Not. A. Chance. Can name 10 players that should go before Fultz EASILY.


    Now as far as Lonzo goes, I wonder if NBA scouts will have any concerns over his awful shooting form?

    Watching him shoot a ball is like watching Charles Barkley swing a golf club. It is effective for him but man is it brutal to watch.

    I don't get the Fultz hype, just like I didn't get the Simmons hype last year.

    Fultz is actually quite similar Marcus Keene (Central Michigan). However, Keene avgs 7.5 more ppg, higher points per shot and better adjusted fg%, 1 fewer assist per game, 1.5 more turnovers than Fultz. Only real difference is height. They're both volume scorers on bad teams.

    I just see Fultz as a mid-late 1st rounder and Keene as an early 2nd rounder.

    I needed UCLA ML last night
    most impressed with Ball in the clutch.

    Some say Cleveland will trade up to get him,
    he is a huge Lebron fan.

    I said I'd rather take those guys ahead of him. Just like I think Simmons should've went 10-15 in the draft (obviously he didn't, but looking back probably should have). Not saying it will happen, but it should happen.

    Fultz will go first
    Ball will be going 2nd pick
    I'll come back here after the draft and say I told you so

    dont be surprised to see the Celtics trade #1 Brooklyn pick either

    Now, betting on who goes #1 is totally different. I won on that bet in the past on KAT and Bennett going first overall.
