Rudy Gobert is moving up draft boards in a season where all he's doing is rotting on the bench or getting ankle injuries.
This draft may not inspire.

It's amazing how easily the RROD has been forgotten. I had to send my console in like 3 times and on my 4th the 3 year warranty ran out. I had to buy a used Jasper that was in good condition for like $100 dollars; haven't had any problems with it.
On a side note, Naruto manga is getting realer than Holyfield.

I was just wondering when was the last time we saw an alleyoop pass to Dwight? I don't think there's been one for the last few games.

I haven't spent quite that much, but the amount I've spent is up there as well. I won't be buying their next offering until it's out on the market and definitively proven to not be a poorly manufactured POS.
Pfft, Naruto. Read a real manga like Attack on Titan.

I think Marcus Smart will be pretty good in the NBA, better than some of the guys projected to go higher than him

What's the premise

I need to watch him play more. He's getting a lot of good press. Hopefully his percentages are just bad luck to this point.
Gasol is out.
The Titans= Bill Russell and the Celtics
Humanity= 2011/12 Bobcats
Moral victories everywhere.

If Marcus Smart and Anthony Bennett were a little taller they'd both be undisputed lottery picks. They've got everything except size.
It comes out in spring. The manga has 9 volumes out though.

Yeah, thing is once all your boys are puttin work on Call of Duty, Halo, whatever...what choices do you really have? Build a 1000 dollar PC or tell your boys/gaming to piss off? Man...
I don't read the Naruto manga. I watch the anime. Finished the Pain saga a year ago. Some filler came and I was like peace. I'll be back though...shits already been real.
Smart's pretty big for a PG/SG combo IIRC. Isn't he 6-4?
And I'll defend his percentages as being asked to be the primary guy as a true freshman without a ton of talent around him. OSU has athletes and that's about it.

His outside jumper isn't quite there yet but his shot selection isn't as bad as Goodwin's. For a guy pegged as a tweener he's appeared to be pretty unselfish and has solid good PG skills, not to mention he's built like a tank at 6'4 225; no idea why Michael-Carter Williams is pegged to go higher than him at this point.
Smart has a Wade type body @ 6'4 225, I think he'll do fine at the next level given how big he is.

MCW has those thievery skills though. Could steal more than Smart in the NBA.

After my 4th 360 I just went over to PS3 and played Uncharted & Metal Gear instead, but I hear where you're coming from.

Gasol shouldn't be the only one doing it.
LegendofJoe

Yeah, I think he's 6'4 in shoes. His percentages suck because he takes a lot of 3s and he can't hit them yet. That's pretty much par for the course for guards these days though, and he's the type of guy who will work at it so it's not a big issue. I like him as a prospect. If Orlando ends up picking in the 3 to 7 range and he's available they should think long and hard about taking him.

Did I get fleeced by thekad with this trade?
I traded Gortat/AK-47 for Wade/Jesus...

If I could see one thing in the NBA in the next two years, it would Billups winning another chip. I've liked him since the Carlisle pistons, and I just want to see him running a team. Really, there isn't anyone like him other than maybe Kidd at the PG position in the NBA.

I think he has a chance to be a nice foundational type of player. Defends, passes, rebounds, and is a pretty good scorer too. Good character guy and leader, too.
Of course I'm selfishly hoping OKC can draft him with the Toronto pick to replace Maynor (who will probably leave) and be our backup PG. It would be cool to have an OSU guy on the Thunder.

I like the cut of your jib, my man.
You really want to see the Clippers win a ring?

ESPN has an article suggesting the Jazz should trade Millsap, Al, and Kanter for Pau and Kemba

You'd pick Smart over a big like Len or Zeller?

I would think that you should be more worried about what D12, Paulina, and Nash have become, but...

why would they do that when someone like Alex Len would perfectly fit in with what OKC needs

So, ESPN did a little 5-on-5 on potential HOFers...
1. Is Vince Carter a Hall of Famer? - 3 in favor, 2 against
2. Is Grant Hill a Hall of Famer? - 4 in favor, 1 against
3. Is Rasheed Wallace a Hall of Famer? - 1 in favor, 4 against
4. Is Tracy McGrady a Hall of Famer? - 2 in favor, 3 against
5. Is Allen Iverson a Hall of Famer? - 4 in favor, 1 against
What say you, GAF?
I personally think Hill and AI should be in... not sure about the other three.

I could be more worried for Lakers and still feel embarassed for what Billups has been reduced to. It's not brain surgery Doc Blade.
Dont get it, i heard it has frame rate issues.

Yeah, and I unapologetically love it so far. It's the first Nintendo system I've really liked since the SNES. They did a really good job with the controller thing.
Hah, I hear that about almost everything on the system. Thanks though, I don't really have time for it so maybe I'll pass.
Hey speaking of nintendo buddies, you should play Sonic Racing online more. There's a community in the official thread!
I'm fairly certain they let/force their interns to do those stupid suggest a trade, articles and then make them put in several obviously bad trades, just to generate site traffic.
Cause they do it once a month with OBVIOUSLY terrible trades.
Hill and AI for sure the other 3 shouldnt come close

I think all of them have a shot. Sheed has the smallest chance but he gave us "ball don't lie". That has to count for something right?

No, yes, no, no, yes.
Okay, it's the "basketball" hall of fame, there isn't one just for the NBA. So VC belongs for Freddy Weiss & stuff. But still, screw that wuss.

Vince Carter will definitely get in. And if we're putting Grant Hill in for basically 6 transcendent years plus college, McGrady should get in, too. His peak was about 6-7 years and it was that good.

Vince Carter will get in because of the 2000 dunk contest and that he is a multiple time all star.
