NBA Offseason

[ReignOnU]

That's a curveball for the draftniks.

[DRiccio21]

there is your first 'is he slow moment'.

i thought MKG was about to faint.

[ReignOnU]

Washington going to send Crawford back to the bench and let him backup both guard spots?

[Matt90210]

1st time in common draft era that the top 2 picks were from the same college.

[Seeitsaveit13]

Didn't start a game in college? Gilbert is off his rocker lol

[ReignOnU]

Portland is grinning from ear to ear... they are going to get Drummond / Robinson.

[Matt90210]

Waiters a reach at 4, no?

[nick]

Waiters a reach at 4, no?

cleveland had position in mind. SG Beal off board, they go for next best SG.

[ReignOnU]

He is... but that's what Cleveland teams do best apparently.

Waiter's is a legit scorer, even though he didn't have to dominate the ball @ Syracuse. Best comparison I can think of is James Harden.

[ReignOnU]

How's that for an explosive front court... Cousins / Robinson.

[nick]

lol robinson is 6'8. isnt he a lil small for PF?

[Matt90210]

How's that for an explosive front court... Cousins / Robinson.

They will look great in Seattle

[jsence2]

MKG to Charlotte

[DRiccio21]

someone else can take Waiters, i'm not interested that high.

he doesn't rebound well enough, he isn't a great shooter and because of the zone he played we have no idea how good of a defender he is.

[jsence2]

You can't help but feel for/admire Robinson for what he had to deal w in regards to his family and how well he handled it. Him and Cousins, that's a damn good young frontcourt.

[ReignOnU]

Correct on all of those points Dave. I felt the same way. Go for him around 7-8 for burst scoring potential... not 4.

Think Portland is having visions of Sam Bowie / Greg Oden before this pick?

[ReignOnU]

Now I'm seriously shocked.

[nick]

im guessing GState goes Barnes, and Toronto deals 8 to Houston for Lowry/their pick, one of them. my guess at least.

[Block M]

Now I'm seriously shocked.

There were reports that said Lillard had the best workout in Portland since Durant.

[ReignOnU]

Yeah, it was in front of Paul Allen too, I heard that.
