can someone explain to me, and back it up with evidence, why Zeller was a bad pick for the Horncats? Fucking Phoenix passed on Noel, and Len had pretty pedestrian stats for someone so heavily hyped. So who would have been a better pick? McCollum? McLemore?

Knicks fans jizzing over a Hardaway? The universe is gonna collapse on itself now. PEACE.

Ugh, that Simmons joke about Amare was so awkward because Jalen and the other 2 scrubs don't get his sense of humor, just terrible. That silence was deafening.

Thought I was the only one who picked up on that. So awk.

Felt more like "Dude, Bill, you're ripping on players your employers hype up! You can't do that, and we aren't going to laugh at your joke."

When the Charlotte Bobcats made their selection in Thursday's NBA draft, Kentucky center Nerlens Noel was available. Maryland center Alex Len was available. If you prefer guards, the best guard in the draft, Kansas’ Ben McLemore, was available.

In other words, the best players in the 2013 draft were still out there. It was as if the Bobcats orchestrated the thing. It was as if they finally won the lottery. It was as if Charlotte’s fourth pick was the first pick. The night was going to be legendary.

And then it wasn’t.

The Bobcats selected Indiana forward Cody Zeller.

(snip)

But it could be worse. Remember Adam Morrison, whom the Bobcats selected with the third pick in the 2006 draft? Remember what he looked like?

What would make this worse is if Zeller comes to town with a black moustache.

Even Woj is mindfucked.

The circus continues.

Felt more like "Dude, Bill, you're ripping on players your employers hype up! You can't do that, and we aren't going to laugh at your joke."

Felt more like how a real commentator/analyst should be talking instead of this PC generic cookie-cutter bullshit that Jalen and others crap out.

In a fucking casket on the day Miami gets their rings. Best way to rain on their parade. Mind games.

Cody Zeller is like Adam Morrison how exactly? What a dumb comparison.

 

[SoulPlaya]

WTF is Jalen Rose doing? Stop embarassing yourself with the rapping and singing ad libs. I don't know why he feels like he has to do this every few minutes when he's on ESPN.

Knicks taking Tim jr hell yea

god damn it bill

we don't give a fuck about your celtics fandom

 

[Syphon Filter]

Don't worry my team sucks more.

Weren't you a heat fan?

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Simmons too real

 

[DominoKid]

Who?

Can someone tell me anything about him?

... D:

He makes shots, he plays defense. Souped up Danny Green.

 

[Pimpwerx]

The CBA has been great. It's pretty much guaranteed that as long as Micky is willing to eat that luxury tax poop burger, there's no possible way for another GM to construct a competitive roster. Is this really what owners wanted? PEACE.

 

[AgentChris]

Nice pick for the Knicks. Should pick up some of the points JR would've scored.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Cody Zeller is like Adam Morrison how exactly? What a dumb comparison.

They're both not the player the Bobcats should have selected with a top 5 pick.

 

[Eleuin]

Weren't you a heat fan?

Raptors, I just still like Bosh so I wanted heat to win

 

[Barack Lesnar]

god damn it bill

Wow, what a terrible post. That was poetry from Simmons. None of the talking heads say that kinda stuff, it was beautiful. He deservedly buried Rivers.

my bobcats buddies destroyed my timeline after that pick. i laughed until my abs hurt. in a nutshell this is why i can't mess w/ the bobcats.

We knew that years ago. Only the Lakers can do anything, but they're stuck.

Celtics traded irrelevancy for irrelevancy.

Waiter!

FUCKING GREAT PICK by GS

oh poor you having to hear about the celtics when doc rivers is brought up

It's fucking retarded, Zeller put on a god level performance for a big at the combine. Lol at the useless CO hyping up Len and McLemore as being sooo much better than Zeller. Quit your day jobs hacks, you suck at it.

 

[Red Blaster]

landry's replacement

Show me the evidence that Nerlens knee is healing badly though, because from all reports we've heard he's ahead of schedule.

And if that's the case and he's going to come back 100% then it was a terribad pick because he's a much better prospect than Zeller.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

ESPN really needs to ditch Wilbon and Magic in favor of Reece Davis on their telecasts. These guys already have better chemistry together.

Welcome to The Tape @t_hard10!!!! LOL. Congratulations. Enjoy this moment.

Damn, it's crazy watching you go through the 5 stages right before our eyes.

The Knicks and Bulls could build a roster also that can compete because both teams could eat the luxury tax costs. Bulls could if the owner actually liked basketball.

100% agree, but he only does college ball ASAIK.

Yeah,Carl Landry's gone

 

[KingGondo]

Woooooooooo! Roberson to OKC.

...

Who is this guy?

 

[AgentChris]

you think j.r is out?

I think so.

 

[Dominican Power]

Yeah,Carl Landry's gone

How much would he command?

 

[Knux-Future]

Damn, it's crazy watching you go through the 5 stages right before our eyes.

I think I have discovered like 3 extra stages.

That's where I am at

Bosh's image was completely destroyed for me when he went to Miami, dude change so much. His personality and his game took a completely 180.

 

[jjasper]

100% agree, but he only does college ball ASAIK.

He does college football as well. He really works well with any group and does great leading groups like this.

 

[Zeus Molecules]

I mean he does nothing particularly well... Nothing at all but shoot the god damn 3 ball... And he is a God Damn Hardaway.... Fuck this draft

 

[masud]

Fuck the entire Hardaway bloodline. At least it wasn't Ledo though.
