3 old men an injury away from retirement and a player who might not even be on the team. That's like saying rooting for Raptors Hakeem or Knicks Kidd or Spurs Tmac is hopping on the bandwagon.

Bennett has apparently put up 18 pounds of fat in the last month and a half, wtf?
On Basketball reference, you can click two different seasons and it will give you the numbers (either simple or advanced depending on what section you're clicking in) for that period of time. KG in the playoffs in Minnesota averaged 22/13/5 with a 51% TS% and a 13.6% TOV. From 1999 to 2004 he averaged 24/14/5 on a 51% TS% and a 13.1% TOV.

Hopefully, it was our FO that found this out since he was in Charlotte over the weekend. He hurt his shoulder, so he should still be able to run or at the very least hop on an exercise bike. There's no excuse for him to gain that much weight traveling or not. I hope we haven't forgotten our Sean May lesson so soon.

Luckily I have the big screen to myself so I'm enjoying myself some coverage in HD. Gotta love that Cole family van. A neat little quirky tradition.

Awesome news with Bennett, going to be awesome seeing his supporters try to defend this shit

Yeah, you guys should keep it local this year. Porter if he's there and Len if he's not. Well, unless both the Cavs Magic both pass on Noel. Then you just freaking party.

you are going to be so crushed if yall take Bennett.
Just like RedBlaster is going to full Evan Turner when they take Mclemore lol.
this is why I don't troll any prospect until after the draft.

more like Philly Abuse Victim...but yeah sure.
at least you don't have to see this sad face at sixers games anymore
I'm glad Doug is gone..if only for his sanity/health.
I know he's old but holy fuck he looked acient by the end of the year.
I truly expected them to hire Larry again before we got a new GM.
Turner wouldn;'t be long for this world.

The pick will be Porter.
Shit, Grunsfeld himself tried to fuck around and trade Ariza for Butler before the deadline, so he clearly didn't think the position was set.
Thank the lord that move didn't happen though.
My only concern is whether or not we maximize our 2nd rounder picks. Would love to get Muscala and Seth Curry and call it a day while extending Webster for 2 PER.
I'd be shocked if we weren't a 7th seed at worst with a strong draft.

Not sure what team is going to be interested in Al. Charlotte will be interested probably but I can't see any other team with cap space wanting him. Maybe Atlanta as well, but I think they want to tank...

Any rumors of where Josh Smith is headed?
I'm gonna be honest i'll miss the guy.
His skill in post offense is something to behold.

Nerlens knee is apparently really awesome according to team doctors. I don't have as much of a dog in the fight, but its cool to see the medicine get to a point where guys can come back from multiple tears.

Aren't most teams that have the cash waiting to see if they have a shot at Dwight and CP3, before putting money on left overs?

I liked YODA until he told me that a good chunk of the math is based on PER 40 numbers which made me lol.
Projecting a guys statistics to 40 minutes is such a reach that it's barely even worth considering for a number of reasons, and he got super bitter about me calling him out on it.

Big board from NBA scouts that Chad Ford asked:
1-Oladipo,
2-Noel,
3-McLemore,
4-Bennett,
5-Porter,
6-Len,
7-CJ,
8-Zeller,
9-Burke,
10 (tie)- MCW, Saric,
12-Schroeder,
13 (tie)-Adams, KCP
15-Olynyk,
16-Larkin,
17-Karasev,
18-Crabbe,

37-Leslie, Rice
39-Brown,
40-Goodwin
May be better for guessing who goes where in the draft than the current ESPN big board.
I'll miss his offense, but his defense was too horrible for me to ever like him that much.

I think they'll go for Iggy, personally.

If Jefferson is willing to give San Antonio a going for a ring discount I think that's who they'll go after. They were rumored to be looking to trade for him last season.

And yet there have been zero rumors of teams being locked in on Bennett. Chad Ford is uninformed drek.
Oladipo's stock being as high as it is is absolutely shocking considering the guy has had roleplayer level usage for his entire NCAA career.
Red Blaster
Member
I think Oladipo's the surest thing in this draft. He has the athleticism, good efficiency, and a great work ethic. That's honestly all you can ask for in a draft that's devoid of a guaranteed superstar.
I don't see how that helps a bottom dweller but loserbros gonna loserbro I guess
Gotta keep the tanks coming
None of the worst teams in the league can afford to be choosy.
Having a guy who's that versatile, athletic, and hard-working can be a huge asset. Those traits can rub off on the rest of the team.
And besides, I highly doubt any of the bottom 5 teams in the league are actually trying to improve all that much. The tank for Wiggins/Parker/Randle/Smart is gonna be intense.
LegendofJoe

The Cavs and Wizards are done tanking though, who's going to take their place?
The Celtics I guess, possibly the Lakers, Jazz, and Hawks as well?

The only thing I have to say about Oladipo is that if people are going to call McLemore a pussy, then what does that make Oladipo? Because as scared as Ben was and is he averaged over two shots a game more as a freshmen than Oladipo ever has his entire career for shitty Indiana.
I am going to get killed for this but I would take McLemore over Oladipo :O/

Just back from the parade. About 4 minutes before a band of rain came through. I got to see all the floats, but from far away. I walked down with my dog, and she's skittish on a good day. Today, with all the people, she was jumpy as hell. To make it worse, pretty much every summer camp in the county brought their ratty-ass kids out, and they have no clue how to act around dogs. I think I'll only keep going to these parades as long as I live downtown. No way in hell I'd subject myself to driving through traffic to get there. It's so not worth it. PEACE.

Len and Noel aren't good offensively, Adams is not a good finisher, Withey is a great finisher, Dieng is super inefficient.
Not that much surprising here.
