IWMTB you told me Kanter wouldnt be any good.

i think

Yeah, I did not believe

I did...

I'm still concerned about Oladipo. The usage is just way too low considering what everyone here thinks he's capable of.

But Westbrooks stats were fucking awful for the most part in college so whatever

Even if Oladipo plateaus tomorrow he'll be a decent Tony Allen clone with a little bit better floor game and maybe an okay jumper, that's still a starter on a good team.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Kings could really shake-up the draft at 7. Heard they like both Tony Snell & Tim Hardaway Jr. a lot. Both in Sacramento today working out

Kings also like Muhammad, but he had to pull out of a 2nd workout w/ Kings today because of an injury …

I mean, you should have listened to Kanter in the first place. He told you he was a mix of Dirk/Pau/Howard, what's not to love?!

So we're looking to take Tyreke Evans Part 2 with a slightly better jumpshot and a SF with a decent shot that doesn't want to defend or rebound.

Cool.

Kings Culture™

I swear to God if we take Shabazz and also sign Ellis, this will be the most dysfunctional team in the history of the motherfucking NBA. I dare anyone to even try to think of another more fucked up combination of players.

New DX update based on intel

I generally agree with the top 6.

Things I'm not sure about:

Bennett to the Kings. Given how quickly the Kings bailed on T-Rob I can't imagine them taking Bennett.

Caldwell Pope to the Wolves: Holy drafting based on a need batman.

Plumlee to the Jazz: No words


The thought of OKC getting both Withey and Olynyk is simply mindblowing to think about though.

The thought of OKC getting both Withey and Olynyk is simply mindblowing to think about though.

It's the patented Presti Method: keep throwing white bigs against a wall until one (kinda) sticks.

For the record, I like Olynyk and he would provide an added dimension we don't have on offense. As for Withey, I could see that too (although we'll be in desperate need of a 2 next year if Lamb doesn't pan out and we take 2 bigs in this draft).

These mocks for the Jazz just get worse every day, what the hell.

Clippers and C's talking again. Clippers initiated the talks again.

Clippers gon clip

 

[thekad]

These mocks for the Jazz just get worse every day, what the hell.

Every year as we move closer to the draft, the mocks have the Jazz taking a player whiter and whiter.

 

[KingGondo]

Dat Wiggins.

Jazz take a Center?

Either draftexpress is dumb as hell or .. the Jazz are.

Shabazz @ 15.. i have seriously thought about making a "tank for shabazz" post montage.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Plumlee is the worst white player in the draft and isn't as white as other players in this class though D:

Jazz take a Center?

Plumlee can play both PF and C. He's just not good though.

 

[LegendofJoe]

lol all day if the Magic take McLemore

But least those white guys were pretty good!

good shit, danny called their bluff. watch this happen today.

I find that generally guys that tall can only really play Center.. there are too many stretch 4's these days. Zeller has steller combine numbers so he might be a different story.

Shroeder or Larkin, who do i want?

 

[thekad]

Clippers remembered that they're the ones trading Deandre Jordan's contract.

Also, Ramona Shelburne reported on the radio that Aldridge might become available soon.

Harden/Dwight/LMA future

man Houston is gonna be pretty darn interesting assuming they get Dwight. Still though, if Dwight didn't like Dantoni's coaching that favored the three over post ups and all that. How well ishe gonna warm up to McHale?

I think they're both OK, but I think Schroeder is a better prospect because it's easier to improve physical strength than height and wingspan and Larkin has the worst standing reach ever for an NBA prospect.

How can i get excited for a draft where Alec Burks would be a top 3 player in it?

Kelly Olynyk with the highest PER in the last three years with his 52% shooting from midrange and 73% at the rim.

I think Chris Paul let it be known that he wants Doc.

That's what Woj is saying.

Y! Sources: With a nudge from Chris Paul, the Clippers-Celtics are discussing Garnett-Rivers deal again. http://t.co/gW4cii2qUM

I wonder if Ainge pushes for more than just the draft picks and DeAndre now.

 

[Bread]

ahaha just as expected. the clippers need to make this trade, they have a lot more to lose than the celtics do.

Hopefully Ainge realizes how much leverage he has now if it really was Chris Paul who made this happen.

 

[Red Blaster]

lol all day if the Magic take McLemore

i've heard his workout was poor and Ford also mentioned it in his chat today

likely that it'll be Oladipo or Noel if the Cavs don't take him

 

[Tom Penny]

He better. Take a shitty contract back and give us another pick and like it !!!

 

[Red Blaster]

hearing that dallas apparently already has an agreement to trade the 13th pick but aren't announcing until draft night, hoping it's us

Sloan's back with the Jazz as an adviser.

Just need Stock back!

Delta Center finally getting a new scoreboard.. about damn time. Side ones 42 feet wide, dang.

good I guess, maybe he can teach dwight some stuff. He was just so three happy this season.

Latest w/@ramonashelburne: One source close to Clips/Celts talks expressing optimism parties could agree to trade terms as soon as tonight

clippers no longer gonna clip?

 

[Adam Blade]

clippers no longer gonna clip?

The Clips-Celtics won’t be getting deal done tonight for Doc, KG to LA. Sources said talks that resumed today resume tomorow morning.

Yes, they gonna they.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

Yeah, I remember when he ran his offense through Al Jefferson.

I can't believe that was like 5 years ago already.

 

[obijkenobi]

A team with CP3, Blake, and KG might be my most hated yet.

 

[Derwind]

Toronto Raptors President and General Manager, Basketball Operations Masai Ujiri announced Wednesday that Head Coach Dwane Casey will return for the 2013-14 season. “I’m excited about moving forward and growing this team with Coach Casey,” said Ujiri. Raptors.com

Looks like we're keep Dwayne Casey, I was a little scared with Ujiri cleaning out personnel left, right and center but I think it was an overall good move and its good to see we keep Casey too, I have a lot of faith in him as a coach.

Horrible move, a fucking infant could make better decisions on who to play and when than Casey.

If its any consolation he'll help us lose more games.
