I just drank a warm glass of milk, Silk vanilla soy milk, that's calmed me down. I'm sorry for this meltdown. I'm a good guy, just passionate.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Both teams ain't doing shit to Miami.

Rose is back.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Holiday is a young stud PG so your "sacrificing the long term for the short term" doesn't make too much sense. Holiday is becoming an elite PG, one of the best in the league. Who knows what happens with Noel and next year's 6-15 pick? Great move by the Pelicans.

 

[J2 Cool]

Too bad he's a 6er now.

Enjoy Jrue

Doe. I can't keep up with the movement in this draft. Haven't thought about that since my first post in this draft hours ago. Still stupid as all hell.

Jrue gets stats against garbage teams. we dont know what hes really like.

Fuck Miami. They're going down.

Clovis was Mark Madsen

RIP

You sure? Madson was hired today for be an assistant coach for Lakers!

 

[Conflict NZ]

jrue is good.

Yeah if he keeps up his current trend he could be the second coming of Monta Ellis.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

You sure? Madson was hired today for be an assistant coach for Lakers!

I really don't mind that hire at all. Mark was supposed to be the headcoach for The Defenders. GOnna get lots of great reaction gifs of Mark. Gonna awesome, right? Please tell me it'll be awesome.

 

[Knux-Future]

You guys are selling Jrue pretty short. Davis and Gimpy Gordon are better than anybody he played with in his career.

He's gonna look a lot better in NO, just because he;s not going to have to score as much.

this sucks for us because that means our pick is worse.

I am glad we are tanking but if Noel dies, MCW is as shit as I think and we get DY'd and if Jrue progresses...this could be franchise killing for us.

 

[Black Mamba]

I really don't mind that hire at all. Mark was supposed to be the headcoach for The Defenders. GOnna get lots of great reaction gifs of Mark. Gonna awesome, right? Please tell me it'll be awesome.

I didn't mean that negatively. I meant that LS is perma'd and madsen is back with the team. I agree, I'm good with that pickup.

LOSERS:

Charlotte Bobcats: Well, at least they're used to being here. Not only did they reach for a player, but they reached for a guy who could wind up being a block magnet and may not be considerably better immediately than Byron Mullens. Think about that. In a draft with so many good scoring weapons, they went with a big with huge concerns about his ability to finish at the rim despite his size. Just not a great look with them taking Cody Zeller.

fucking LOL

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

The Pelicans are going to be one of the best teams in the West in two years just because Anthony Davis is going to be amazingly awesome even with mediocrity from JRue and Gordon.

edit: Zeller and Mullens have nothing in common.

 

[SamuraiX-]

So SwagLemore has some of the worst defensive awareness that I've ever seen for a guard who went Top 10 in a draft.

He'll fit right in.

Honestly, I think he can become a richman's Marcus Thornton with slightly better on-the-ball defense and a more willing passer. Which is perfectly fine with me.

I really just hope Bruke and McCollum don't kill it this next season... otherwise fuck everything.

[Black Mamba]

Rondo for Cousins.

It makes sense. Don't be shocked I got this one right.

 

[TheKaeptain]

This makes me smile.

 

[Fjordson]

fucking LOL

Exactly. The guy was worthless down low against "bigs" like Trevor Mbakwe and CJ Fair (note: neither of those players are taller than 6-8). Not sure what Charlotte is expecting in the NBA.

Rondo for Cousins.

It makes sense. Don't be shocked I got this one right.

Kings aren't going to trade away the best big man in the league (after Shaq trains him up :lol).

I eagerly await Zeller's rookie year where Dy tells everyone "he ain't that bad, other players are fucking him" talk, only for Dy to throw him under the bus in year two.

[Nelo Ice]

I figured Pau would kill himself like Knux on draft night trying to support Blake/Meeks/Hill starting lineup.

Lakers are gonna be so bad this year =(

If we can snag Wiggins it will be worth the suffering! At least he better be a game changer...

 

[SoulPlaya]

DWill
Joe Johnson
Pierce
Garnett
Lopez
Terry off the bench

Holy shit at that starting 5... Nets literally have an all-star team.

Brooklyn fans, if my Bulls can't get it done, you guys better beat Miami.

Let me save you some time.

"Your" Bulls aren't getting it done.

Seems like the Russian wants to takeout Heat

Oh btw Nets were a great team last year

They just became Amazing

 

[Branduil]

Rondo for Cousins.

It makes sense. Don't be shocked I got this one right.

Why would the Kings trade for a two-year rental of Rondo?

We're tanking on a budget is all that means.

Glock and DJO are shit and aren't owed a dime going forward, c-ya.

Jamison? Get gone. EC6? Thanks for the memories dog, but we have bigger fish to fry.

Trevor Arizbanks? Get yo dumb, drunk driving doppelganger ass out of here.

Howard welp, get fucked. Sacre? I love your enthusiastic karate chops, but are they worth paying him 1 mil for his qualifying offer? I say yes.

Metta World Amnesty.

Steve Nash....how do you feel about being traded for picks?
Chris Duhon.....how do you feel about being traded for some sandwiches?

Meeks....you may stay.




Kobe...Pau.....and Steve Blake I guess....

Bring on the 1 year contract 2k created players.

Why the hell did the Cavs choose Bennett? They don't need another forward, unless they are giving up on Thompson already

:lol CAVS

Hahahaha

lmao

Anthony Bennet?

ahhahhahahahahhahahahahhahaha

I love Cleveland, seriously I do

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

Haha, wtf.

Loooooooooolooooolll

What a waste a of a first overall pick, lmao

lol cav

I'm about to pass out from laughing, never change Cleveland you are the best

I was concerned there for about a month that I might have the burden of rooting for a contender next year. Thank God the Cavs have saved me that!

I can't fucking breathe.

OMG LOL

This is the greatest moment in draft history since Kwame Brown. LMFAO

See you at the 2014 lottery, Gilberts!

dear god.

Chris Grant


wow son

I WAS RIGHT

Draft delivering earlier than usual.

The cavs take the reincarnation of Mike Sweetney. Because when you have the first pick taking an undersized 4 who loses against fatty food is always a must.

At least the Hawks would never make that pick.

Hahahaha

Fucking Cavs.

Tim Legler called it earlier and John Anderson dogged him for it....lol

Canada with two straight number one picks

Holy Shit! Lol

Did they let Nick Gilbert make the pick?

Back to back Canadian #1s. Bennett + Wiggins.

OK Cleveland done fucked the draft...... This shit is wide open

What the fuck

AND THE FIRST TEAM TO THROW THEIR HAT IN THE RACE FOR THE 2014 DRAFT

*pause*

*stern asks crowd to turn that shit up*

NEOCAVS

Noel look destroyed that look

jeez

Fuck life. Seriously, I called this shit.

Cleveland gonna Cleveland

Fucking everything was perfect.

Stern milking it.

Noel #howcometheydontwantmeman face.

ESPN analyst reactions.

GREATEST #1 PICK OF ALL TIME, OF ALL TIIIMME

"Highest drafted Canadian ever." L:OLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Cleveland already #RigginForWiggins

smh

So this is just a practice round right? The real draft starts at 8?

lol wtf Bennett?

WHA HAPPAN CELVELAND?!@?!?

So fucking dumb. I'm sure Irving is pissed.

That Simmons reaction.

Holy shit. LOL

Anthony Bennett is now a potential wing player according to Jalen Rose.

NBA 2013 Draft already delivering HARD in the first fucking minutes. ahahahahhahahaha

Mike Sweetney all over again. Donuts will always win against Bennett just watch.

I'd like to offer my condolences to any Cav fans.

Sad Noel.

I'm getting hyped for James Ennis now. After watching this video, I want to call him Baby Durant. I nominate him to the empty gym hall of fame.

With Hamilton likely out, I have a reason to watch summer league again. PEACE.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Why are you guys assuming the Celtics will trade Rondo? there is a 60-70% of this not doing to happen.

Based on what?

He won't be traded until The ASG. By then if the Celts are lucky he will be back to where he was before the injury and they can get some decent value out of the trade. They seem to value him more than the rest of the league so who knows when he actually goes and for what.

Rondo will be 28 in January of next season, they won't be in any position to compete again for a few years. The parting will probably be a mutual desire.

 

[Khalid-S]

Rondo will be 28 in January of next season, they won't be in any position to compete again for a few years. The parting will probably be a mutual desire.

Well thats true.. but Rondo always wanted to team up with J. Smith. With Pierce departure, there is a good chance of Celtics signing Smith. Thats IF they want to build around Rondo and make him happy.

D. Ainge today spoke to media about Rondo

Nice round up, Frankman.

Yeah, I was absolutely losing my shit until right about when Noel was finally drafted.

This draft had it all. Draft of the decade. In the running for draft of the century.

 

[The Frankman]

The sheer amount of WTF? on picks and teams trading guys like they were the red-headed stepchild was amazing. Jesus Christ I have no idea what some of the GMs

Spoiler

Dan Gilbert

are thinking.

 

[Hydrogen Bluebird]

Celtics should trade Rondo to the Kings for Tyreke Evans.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Gobert's actually coming to the NBA this year? Hopefully he's good since he should be getting a decent bit of minutes.

[linsivvi]

So Rondo is now the man in Celtics? Who will he pass the ball to for his assists?

Next season is going to be fun.

Edit: Lakers need to put Myck Kabongo on the summer team. Building up that Canadian tradition with Nash/Kabongo/Wiggins.
