From Jimmy Butler's trainer: "0-82.worst culture in the league.I met drug dealers with better morals then their GM. He is a liar and everyone knows"

30th still gives Lakers a shot at Bolden, Bell or Ike. Don't fuck this up, Rob Lowe

They can also draft a smaller guard (Frank mason, frank Jackson, Juwan Evans) if they drop to that 2nd

I'm a Jayhawk, so I'm biased, but I think Mason is legit. May not be a huge dropoff from the departed Russell.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Frank Jackson is two away from realizing he made a huge mistake

Done deal, didn't make the first round.

 

[Sandfox]

Who is Josh Hart.

He's a jack of all trade guard that makes winning plays and fits next to any other guard.

Dragon Sword is a weird poster.

He's talking about the Bulls GM?

I'm with you friend.

Trade one shit front office for another. It's a real treat watching BS trades every year.

i wanted DSJ so fucking much man

 

[DragonSword]

LaVine took a break from rehabbing to attend the Destiny 2 gameplay premiere event

huh.....didn't know Lavine was a gamer lol

no they just didn't pick any of those in that last pick

Josh Hart is a solid pick though


that doesn't dismiss that I am.....a weird poster XD

 

[jmizzal]

Hart is a good pick, he can help the Lakers next year

 

[sf2fanatic]

Gotta be a trade bait pick

It's kinda satisfying in a way. Apparently his dad thought the coaching staff wasn't being honest when they gave them his draft grade.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Didn't get the Big I wanted but a 3/D guard is something this team desperately needs to ill take it.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Zach Lowe. He knows.

Done deal, didn't make the first round.

I thought he had a great combine supposedly. Anyway, when the 9.99 insiders started rumbling that he was going to go pro I thought he was out of his damn mind. He had an okay freshman year but given all the turnover from this year's team, he'd really have a chance to prove himself as a scoring guard.

Maybe Utah has a D league team.

Yeah I heard his dad was the one really pushing for him to be 1 and done. Given how Derryck Thornton's dad basically forced him to transfer out because he wasn't being used as the next Jay Williams, maybe some of these dads need to step the fuck back.

 

[Miracle]

Hart great defender, rebounding for his position and very good shooter.

Ball passing to him too gonna make this a huge steal.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

He was rated 27 on Chad Ford's big board. If he goes early second, there's not much difference.

Magic fan checking in, currently staring down the edge of a cliff

With ya. Didn't think it could get worse than Hennigan but it somehow is? I don't fucking understand how you trade away picks from this years draft for picks in 2020... that are WORSE than the pick slot you have now. What the fuck?

 

[darkwing-buck]

Does Miami have any assets to trade for PG? I feel like if anyone could convince him to stay it's Pat.

 

[beat]

I'm happy for Terrance, his uncle is my dad's best friend and he was here in Tulsa with his family tonight. Glad he wont be going far. I've known him since he was 5 lol.

Is he as big a Warriors fan as his twitter seems to indicate?

Except for the whole guaranteed contract thing, sure. It was a bad move.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Early second rounders typically get those, too, and make it to a second contract sooner. If he goes in the first few, he's in good shape. Then it's all on him.

and on top of that he gets a chance to get paid now instead of playing for free. I'm not sure how much he could have improved his stock with another year or two of college that really would have mattered.

 

[Nialrot]

i wanted DSJ so fucking much man

Don't worry, we will just play defense only and continue to be an awful offensive team.

It's depressing being a Magic fan.

 

[Rmagnus]

Didn't work well for the king. Pacers are in a tough spot since PG openly said he only wants to go to lakers

 

[spyder_ur]

Zach Lowe. He knows.

Uhhh...he's not talking about Jayson, in case that's what you were thinking.

 

[DragonSword]

Woj and them basically said that they don't expect an Indiana deal to go down with George tonight



My only guess is the trade deadline if they really want bird rights.

When does Deng's contract end?

MJ doing work

Frank Jackson in the 2nd he has a lot of upside

 

[sf2fanatic]

Jordan drafting a Dukie?

 

[darkside31337]

Love what the Hornets have been doing the past few days

edit - never mind! smh

 

[Meier]

The Magic need help now. Hate this trading for picks years down the line bullshit. This guy we traded away sounds like he's got a chance to be something.

I still can't believe what a shitshow that Serge Ibaka trade turned out to be. Sigh.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Comm 101. It's the not the message you meant, it's the message that was received.

And Jackson to the Hornets at 31. He's good to go.

 

[phanphare]

apparently a draft and trade to nola for cash and the 40th pick

 

[DragonSword]

Yes, another team that should be really fun to watch

 

[TraBuch]

Someone pick Amile.

Trading picks now for future picks in the future makes plenty of sense... when you're actually getting assets. They fucking traded the 25th pick in the draft for a top 20 protected pick that will almost assuredly be 2 2nd rd picks. Thats just fucking trash. Same with the 35th pick. Its unreal bad.

 

[Nialrot]

and stifling Aaron Gordon's development for no apparent reason

Oh it's going to be real fun watching EP, Evan, Issac, AG and Vuc all on the court.

Embarrassing how screwed we are for another several years.

 

[charsace]

I like the Luke Kennard pick by Detroit. If he can defend he is a starting sg. He can shoot and his footwork good.

 

[jmizzal]

Oh Jordan traded him lol

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Jordan drafting a Dukie?

Not the first time. Gerald Henderson in 09.

apparently a draft and trade to nola for cash and the 40th pick

GOAT is such a bum.

 

[truly101]

Supposedly next year's draft isn't particularly strong. If he teetered between the 1st and 2nd round as a freshman, its not unreasonable to think he could have improved his stock a decent amount.

oh my god it just hit me how awful that lineup is

Ivan Rabb and Frank Jackson are two guys who must feel stupid right now.

After slandering his as a limited backup center I want to puts some respeck on Bam Bam Adebayo's name

https://youtu.be/UgxnPpObogI

https://youtu.be/iBAJttgPMgg

he's got nice form on his jumper.

He's got excellent potential to be the next KG. Definitely a heat lifer.

Ahahahahahaha. Good call. Goofy looking mofo.

said his range shooting impressed them
