So where's he going?  This range is the consensus of where most people/sites have him projected.  For extra credit, you can predict where Qualls will go if you want to throw some chips on the table that he'll be drafted.

I'm going/hoping with the Bucks at 17.  I'd love to see him play with Jabari Parker and get coached up by Jason Kidd.  They have a shot at being Top 4 in the East next year.

The Celtics at 16.     I think the Bucks are a bad fit at 17, unless they drop another front court player.

There is something to be said for mixing up your lineups a bit more than the Bucks would, by bringing in Portis.
No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents, and more orphans than socialism with power. It surpassed, exponentially, all other systems of production in turning out the dead. The bodies are all around us. And here is the problem: No one talks about them. No one honors them. No one does penance for them. No one has committed suicide for having been an apologist for those who did this to them. No one pays for them. No one is hunted down to account for them. It is exactly what Solzhenitsyn foresaw in The Gulag Archipelago: "No, no one would have to answer. No one would be looked into." Until that happens, there is no "after socialism."

This is where I've been reading he will end up.  Should be a good fit, they like bigs that can stretch the floor and he'll have an opportunity to get good minutes off the bench.  Also, if Demarre Carroll stays with them, he'll have a familiar face on the team with him, I'm rooting for him to go there.

I'd rather he go to OKC so it's more possible to see him play but I'm thrilled for him wherever he goes.

Vitale, as an aside, says the Heat take him at 10.  Would be an interesting fit.

Welcome to your official Hogville 2015 NBA Draft thread, for all of your NBA and Razorback basketball related takes.

Plenty of stuff to discuss this evening.  One of our own will be going to the Pepsi Center in Denver, to live-draft party with the Denver Nuggets fans.

Anyone have a sleeper?  Anyone have a dark horse?  Anyone have a favorite Trade?

I do think Vitale's Heat @ 10 is a bit of a reach, but if a team like the Knicks drops down in the draft to that 9-14 type of range, I think Bobby might be a pick that a few teams looking to trade down might pick up, in the back half of that range.

Qualls getting drafted would be news after tearing his ACL. It a shame since most had him as a mid to early second rounder before the injury

With the league as it is, it is all about need.

There are plenty of teams that need a player like him.  Not all of them pick in the right range to get him.
