Detroit Pistons finally get a pick. Damn Dumars done that organization hard.

 

[sf2fanatic]

I'm spoiler tagging at least! Do people even care about spoilers at this point?

Ok ok ok I'm just joking. Please don't smash us in NFL if my team plays yours

 

[joeygreco1985]

God damn the Raptors just missed out on Tyler Ennis. Brutal draft

 

[trixx]

I don't understand toronto's pick.

 

[Aim_Ed]

Scared for this next Toronto pick.

 

[Tom Penny]

Nobody failed more than the 76er's and Toronto.

It's only ever 2 or 3 people who throw a hissy fot about them each year, then hardly post on the thread. Meanwhile, I keep having to jump between the browser and twitter apps on my tablet, instead of just having regular unspoilered news in one place. I vote we ditch the idiotic spoiler tags and start linking to tweets, since it's clear the NBA doesn't intend on updating the broadcast. I mean, trades are also woefully delayed on TV. I feel like I'm watching sa recap of the draft because I know everything before the studio people. PEACE.

 

[Owzers]

still can't believe Knicks got rid of Felton that easily. I hope they turn things around.

Bulls.Trade two picks, that turned out to be great, for McD.

Ugh

76s got Embiid the best player in the draft...they could have done worse.

 

[Bowser]

76s got Embiid the best player in the draft...they could have done worse.

If he ever makes it onto the court...

 

[Tom Penny]

76s got Embiid the best player in the draft...they could have done worse.

Tank literally almost historically for players that will not play for at minimal a year...They are idiots.

 

[effzee]

76s got Embiid the best player in the draft...they could have done worse.

And a 2nd rounder next year plus a 1st in 2017.

Not bad. Certainly not the worst of all teams.

 

[Pumpkin King]

OKC did nothing. No surprise. Sigh. I'm going to keep catching up on Eastbound and Down. See you next season, shut down NBA-GAF.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Source: Brooklyn got in the draft. Will get Minnesota's No. 44 pick. So T-Wolves will pick for the Nets.

Nets are in the draft people.

Tanking is strategic and they are doing it well, not following dumb advice to end up terribly mediocre.

Ah the Raptors strategy, it hasnt worked well for the first 20 years of the franchise but maybe in the next 20.

 

[OJdaKiller]

Time for the Greek Freak's bro to get drafted....Get a little feel-good national news story for the Bucks.

 

[BadAss2961]

Bulls.Trade two picks, that turned out to be great, for McD.

Ugh

McDermott looks legit. Dude can score from anywhere which is what the Bulls desperately need.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Only because NFLN has superior commentary and stats.

ESPN NFL Draft is garbage, especially that they spoil all the picks and Berman is busy CATCHPHRASE

GRUDEN CATCHPHRASE OVERHYPING QB I LOVE DIS KID

CRIS CARTER CATCHPHRASE

"MAN CC CMONMAN!"

KEYSAHWN SAYS SOMETHING STUPID

CMONMANCMONCMANCMONMAN!

Espn in general is terrible.

Agreed, I watch the NFL draft on NFL Network. I only watch actual games on espn if they're exclusive there and no where else. Everything else is pure garbage.

 

[Pimpwerx]

McDermott looks legit. Dude can score from anywhere which is what the Bulls desperately need.

Now they have two guys who can score from anywhere in Jimmer and McD, which will be important, because they probably won't be able to create good looks near the rim. PEACE.

 

[Bowser]

Walter Tarvares holy shit this dude is huge

 

[darkside31337]

Now they have two guys who can score from anywhere in Jimmer and McD, which will be important, because they probably won't be able to create good looks near the rim. PEACE.

Derrick Rose is coming back.

Spoiler

lmao

 

[Isotope]

Jesus Christ this guy is huge.

 

[UnObtainium17]

Aw fuck looks like i will tune back in for the ceowd reactions.

 

[TheDrizzlerJ11]

What a giant.

What did the Heat give up for Shabazz?

 

[Bowser]

What a giant.

What did the Heat give up for Shabazz?

Two 2nd round picks (55 and a future second)

 

[PachinkoChampBruh]

I just hope I am still alive if and when he comes to the NBA

don't worry his time will come.

 

[Koko]

Two 2nd round picks (55 and a future second)

And P.J. Hairston

 

[Pimpwerx]

Yo, watching the draftexpress video on Shabazz, and I'm getting those championship chills again. Napier's natural shooting touch with Ray Allen's work tutelage... Oh hell yeah. PEACE.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

What a giant.

What did the Heat give up for Shabazz?

A ham sandwich.

 

[Bowser]

And No. P.J. Hairston

Well yeah, forgot the most important part haha

 

[Anth0ny]

I just wanted to say

Cleanthony Early might be the best name ever

ever

 

[BadAss2961]

Jimmer's a small guy that can't post, so he can't score from anywhere. Plus i'm pretty sure he's a free agent now.

McD can post mostly any SF in the NBA. Can create his own shot. Can literally score in any fashion from any position.

 

[Complex Shadow]

don't worry his time will come.

Mann I wanna hate this. But it's just to funny.

 

[Pimpwerx]

Derrick Rose is coming back.

Spoiler

lmao

Yeah, and they're still down a legit ballhandler. I don't know how they expect to improve that offense when all you have to do is get the ball put of Rose's hands. Is teague supposed to be the backup? I thought they could use someone with a handle. PEACE.

 

[Hypemaster]

Did they just skip the wizards???

 

[HerbertFish]

They traded Teague I think

 

[Bowser]

Not sure. They picked Jordan Clarkson (PG, Mizzou) and will trade him to Lakers though.

Melo plz.

DJ was a great backup and I hope we can keep him.

 

[Hypemaster]

Not sure. They picked Jordan Clarkson (PG, Mizzou) and will trade him to Lakers though.

Ah okay, thanks.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Was a good draft for the Cavs, like the 2nd round pick, will flourish in Blatt's system.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

The more I stew on this Randle pick the less I like it. I can't pretend. His game just seems like the opposite of where the pro game is trending. It's all about versatility, speed, spreading the floor, slashing to the basket and Randle doesn't seem to bring any of that. His game is too one dimensional to me. He seems like the kind of guy who would have been drafted high 10-15 years ago. I just don't see his game translating over in a meaningful way, at least not the way you need from a top 10 pick (and for a team who doesn't have a pick next year). I feel like an nfl fan whose team just drafted a running back in the top 10. Like I said I'm a lakers fan so obviously I hope I'm wrong but I'm don't have a lot of hope. I gotta find a silver lining: Maybe he can start out the season putting up a bunch of empty stats on a bad team and we get get a desperate Flip Saunders to trade Kevin Love for him.

Lowry to Mia makes sense if it opens door to Melo. Big 3 becomes a younger, more athletic Big 4 (Lowry/Wade/LBJ/Melo). Instant EC favorite.


^Ric Bucher




He trollin'

Mia is still the EC favorite right now. Theyre the best team,even with Bron opting out. The east is such trash.

Bulls stay losin':

 

[HI. BILLY MAYS HERE]

I know I'm late but the NBA drafting Isaiah Austin was touching as fuck shit almost made me cry.

 

[arts&crafts]

Bulls stay losin':

Where are the Raptors? I am guessing an F-

 

[elrechazado]

Ah the Raptors strategy, it hasnt worked well for the first 20 years of the franchise but maybe in the next 20.

Any day now they will three peat
