he was a GREAT pick at 9. There's no one else at 9 who had the upside Drummond has.

I'd honestly take Drummond over any other big not named Anthony Davis in the draft.

He just put up 12 pts, 7 boards, 2 steals and 2 blocks with 0 turnovers on 6-8 shooting in 23 mins in his first nba game. It's a preseason game of course so take from it what you will, but that's just points off instinct plays. When/ dude gets the fundamentals down he could be scary good.

Calm down.. He was a good at 9 he could be a superstar..but dude has little touch for a big man

Told y'all. His gorilla strength was the only bright spot of summerleague.

Playing on a stacked team that is defense orientated should help him become a solid back up. He won't be expected to contribute much either, no pressure. Gets tons of practice time with Dwight/Kobe/Pau/Nash. Hard to imagine a better situation for a rookie big.

? We haven't had a PG or run a traditional offense in years. Watching Nash make those crisp passes is amazing compared to what we had before.

And he was the last freaking pick in the draft. Mitch really does know how to make something out of nothing.

Drummond had a shaky end of the year at a school with an unstable dynamic going, so teams were dumb enough to let him fall because of play with all the distractions going on




Yes sir, probably only two of us around here

Drummond dropped because he played soft in college. His sucking is the reason why UConn's best player fell in the draft. Him and that little bitch Napier who chucked his way out of being a first rounder.

The last 7 seasons the Lakers started the season with these PGs starting

Had a brief Ramon Sessions period there, but other than that, that was it. I think you can excuse us for creaming over Nash running an offense for a few games.

All of Sacramento's regular rotation players from last season saw game time except for Travis Outlaw. New addition Aaron Brooks played only 7 minutes.

Looks like Keith might've actually learned something after all.

I cannot fucking wait to see what Nash can do with this team at full strength. I was worried about Mike Brown this season, but with Nash running shit MB's very existence is basically moot.

Mitch is a god damn genius.

Too bad Nash got outplayed by a rookie from the Big Sky. Time to stop smelling that anointment ointment, guys.


Blazers 103-0 full-season underway.

Not sure why MWP waited until now to slim down. His hands have been as quick as ever but his foot speed has gotten so bad with all the added weight. He was great at guarding bigs but never suited that role due to the Lakers front court.

Not sure about offensively but we'll see a much better effort from MWP on D this year with him being this lean.
