Stein saying Joerger looks set to become Kings new coach. Deal is looking like 4yr/16mil, and could be finalized by later today. I'm very happy with this hire. Hoping it finally works out after all the shit shows that went on thus far.

Edit* Deal is final! 3yr/12mil w/ a 4th yr team option.

[Doc Holliday]

Bulls getting a top three pick, you heard it here first!

 

[Shamrock7r]

hay guys

I wonder if those Durant to the Spurs rumors change up after how that series went.

I wonder if those Durant to the Spurs rumors change up after how that series went.

Durant is staying in OKC for 1 more year (signs a 2yr deal with a player option for the 2nd yr). Then we wait for next offseason to see what happens with him and Russ. I think it Russ goes, then Durant will leave also.

Gives Harden one more year to try to convince his buddies to join him in Houston.

 

[Jarate]

we are so fucking close to the draft lottery

I hope we dont get fucked

 

[boxter432]

KAT to be announced ROY tomorrow. Shocking. Should be unanimous like Steph but I'm sure some NY moron will vote for unicorn.

GO LAKERS!

Just a day or so away!

 

[sf2fanatic]

GO LAKERS!

Just a day or so away!

Yup. Gonna have a great pick and maybe DeMar opts out to help the team out

 

[Kevtones]

Have a feeling GSW is going after Allen Crabbe this offseason.

 

[Gigglepoo]

GO LAKERS!

Just a day or so away!

I'd rather have the Lakers win than Philly or Boston. Keep Simmons out of the East!

This is a serious statement, but if Lakers don't get their pick, I'm at least OK with it going to the 76ers.

Boston can fuck off, of course.

Sounds like a plan.

Anyone but Philly. They shouldn't be rewarded for this egregious tank job.

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Eh, I can't help it. I've just respected that franchise too much though. But I'm sure I'm speaking pre-draft lottery, though, especially if the Lakers end up losing their pick because they had the second worst record and not the first worst record.

 

[Lambtron]

I'm not greedy, I just want the Wolves to land in the top two.

 

[LyleLanley]

I just want the Celtics to get the top pick, is that too much to ask for?

 

[friskykillface]

Ainge sweatn'
top 2 or bust

Bulls winning the draft, just like they won the D rose draft, why basketball gods love Chicago boggles my mind, their owner doesn't even like the team
or its rigged


fuck the 76ers, tanking year after year, get lost dummies

 

[Jarate]

76ers got taken over by the league so they could rig the lottery to get 1 and 4. Hinkie died for our sins

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Hope the lottery is as amusing as last year's!

 

[jrmanimal]

Nuggets never got up in the lottery, so I expect to see history today as we land a 1st pick for the first time ever.

Other than for trading it won't matter. The best two players in the draft will not be named Simmons or Ingram.

 

[wbsmcs]

Is it impossible for the Raptors to get the #1 pick because the Nuggets have the right to swap picks?

Or am I missing something here?

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Do the Nets even have a pick this year? Or heck next year?

You are correct.

You are correct.

They'll get Boston's pick next year and they won't have a pick in 2018.

 

[Tom Penny]

The one time the Celtics beat their lottery odds he O'ded on yeyo. Sweet !!!

 

[friskykillface]

Ainge sweatn'

 

[Bread]

let's just take the value we can get right now and trade for vitaly potapenko again

 

[friskykillface]

Celtics should get a Jiri Welsch type of player, Jiri was da best

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Almost time!

 

[Jarate]

IVE TRUSTED THE PROCESS FOR THIS MOMENT

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Here we go.

 

[Sandfox]

No matter what happens I will be relieved that it's over.

Shit, posted on the wrong thread but GO NETS.

Brandon Ingram is apparently eating 5000 calories a day

He still looks like a twig

 

[Brinbe]

Thanks, Dolan. =D

 

[jmizzal]

Simmons will go number one but Ingram is gonna be the better player, I watched Simmons play and he has all the talent in the world but in crunch time he just doesnt have IT, Ingram wants the ball and has IT

Buddy Heild is gonna be really good, he fits the new NBA style of play

 

[Sandfox]

You should google high school pictures of him because he just looked sickly back then.

I have the same diet!

 

[Chase17]

Is this a new NBA Lottery set? Looks better then I remember.

 

[friskykillface]

SHOOK time

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I'm quite glad the Raptors have two First round draft picks. Very excited for this one.

Are they in someone's basement? You just got millions Simmons, step it up.

 

[Tom Penny]

Somebody wants hits...would laugh at Lakers

‏@CommonManKFAN
My inside NBA "source" says Boston, MN and Philly....in that order....watch.....

 

[boxter432]

Wolves still have never moved up in the lottery, they are due
