I suppose we will be in the exact same position next year. Maybe the team itself should tank to help our chances for a top pick.
Thomas or Antonio Mcdyess is the comp I'm constantly seeingI'm out on Chriss. I don't like the "He has only been playing basketball for 4 years but he's an incredible athlete" kind of prospect anymore. You've got to have at least one definable, translatable NBA skill to be taken this high and I'm not sure what his is. He's big as hell but rebounded like ass against weaker competition. He could easily be another Tyrus Thomas/Chris Wilcox. Let the Kings draft him.
How is Bender a PF? He's 7'1"!
Fuckin Danny god dammit
How is Bender a PF? He's 7'1"!
IF NOT TRADED, PICK IS DUNN FOR WOLVES

Sixers are out on the No. 5 pick, per source.
the nba doesnt want us to win another one before the lakersWhy is this happening to us?

Vertical Sources: Chicago and Minnesota talks for Jimmy Butler broke down. Bulls wanted Zach LaVine, not Ricky Rubio.
Wolves get their man w/o having to trade.
Hurry and trade for a fucking extra first rounder, Mitch! I want Hernangomez in Purple and Gold! He has two of the most common Mexican last names combined into one, you know how many Laker jerseys that will sell!?!?
But Jalen Rose said he's going to be better than Ingram...
lmao
Something something Dirk was drafted 20 years ago. And Bender is a rim defender, right?
Wolves could of had Butler too.

Are they dumbWolves apparently turned down a trade of the No.5 pick and LaVine for Butler.

Reminds me of our old (Jonathan) Bender in more ways than one. I hope Dragan can stay healthy, it is going to be fun watching him and Porzingis face off for years to come.
Oh, sure, he's not really comparable, just saying that size alone is not really an exclusion criteria if you can craft a niche for yourself.

Wow I would've gave up zach for butler
Y'all watching Jalen while Tom Crean is giving the real shit on Yahoo.
Yup, Butler and Wiggins on the wing with Towns, thats a playoff team
