NBA Draft

[Gurbir23]

Thoughts?


Colangelo just shot the raptors in the foot with that pick. We cant have calderon or bayless running the point, especially with their atrocious defensive skills. We needed a guy like knight or walker running the point but opted out for another soft european player.

Also, Tristan going 4th was a shocker, did not expect that.


Totally Unrelated: Ron Artest is trying to change his name to Metta World Peace...LOL

im so fucking pissed ... jordan hamilton, marcus morris, chris singleton, & kawhi leonard were ALL AVAILABLE and the fucking phoenix suns pick the SHITTIER of the morris twins.

MARKIEFF MORRIS? SERIOUSLY? he isnt as bad a robin lopez was when the suns drafted him, markieff will be a lot better but compared to the guys still available this was a shitty pick. ugh.

even after all that, phoenix suns for life!

HOWEVER, i finally will be supporting a "2nd favorite team" ... i love Jimmer Fredette to death, so i'll be rooting for the Sac Kings next season as well! it'll all work out anyways when they move to Anaheim

I hope to God Jimmer works out.

I missed the entire draft and all the trades that went along with them. Would anybody be down to simplify what all went down. Besides the lakers picking up 2 PF's and a shooting guard, i have no clue what went down. They didnt even look at a point guard. WTF!!!!

we got that one gay niggaaa

Stephen Jackson, Beno Udrih, Shaun Livingston and the 19th overall pick to the Bucks, 7th pick and Maggette to the Bobcats, and John Salmons+10th pick to the Kings.

I didn't wanna retype so I just pasted my fb status lol.

Also, the Mavericks are sending Jordan Hamilton to Portland for Rudy Fernandez. Portland will send Miller to Denver for Felton as well in this trade.
Dallas wins that trade. Another 3 point threat from the bench/starting(depending on Terry) who can also slash.

Toronto Raptors failing once again. Another Euro center who might not even be able to play in the NBA next season due to buyout issues.

Funny how Sacramento probably wanted Milwaukee to pick Kemba Walker 10th and send him to Sac while sending Biyombo to Charlotte, and then Charlotte turning around and taking him 9th to screw Sac while having them pick Biyombo for them.

Detroit Pistons getting Brandon Knight LATE. Definitely a win for them.

Thought the Cavs should have taken Valanciunas over Thompson though. Would have been a better fit.

Utah Jazz stacking up Power Forwards...
Al Jefferson
Paul Millsap
Derrick Favors
Enes Kanter
Memo Okur
Jeremy Evans

6 PF's on their roster currently. What the hell are they doing?

Same goes for Minnesota...they drafted another SF, putting beasely, love, randolph, and williams at the 3/4

love thompsons game obviously not a draft full of stars so why not get a solid starter. he will block shots, rebound and basically be a high energy guy. Next year for the cavs though will be huge because that draft will be stocked with all stars and possible superstars.

 

[Love]

Yeah I understand, but he plays the 4. They already have JJ Hickson as a starter at that spot and Varejao at the 5

Its more than likely. Hes just one of many who are going to go the way of "one and done". The Nba either needs to raise the age limit or make it what it used to be.

I have no doubt in my mind he will.

Rivers has a lot of swagger he even went as far as saying he wanted to destroy lebron when he gets to the nba however hes to small and I think he will end up being up a Monta Ellis sort of player. The 4 guys in next years draft that will be really amazing are barnes, Michael Gilchrist, Anthony Davis and possibly Perry Jones. However watch out for Myck Kabongo and Kevin Pangos two amazing floor generals and it doesnt hurt that they are canadian

Who knew Iman Shumpert would get drafted that high but then again, its the Knicks were talking about here, even a guy who picked great players in the draft like Donnie Walsh turns shitty...smh, im hoping im wrong lol

The winner of this draft, is by far, college basketball.
