I assume that vet will also be a point guard they will start ahead of Isaiah Thomas for Reasons.

The Cavs rule and will use the #1 overall pick to draft a running mate for Bennett. Honestly they can't make a mistake that bad again...or can they? I read getting the three #1s in four years that they did was a 13,000-to-1 chance.

Kings to package pick w/ Gay and filler for Love? Also, do the Magic go with Smart. Can the run him and Vic at the same time? ButtWolf fucked around with this message at 13:37 on May 21, 2014 |

As I think about it, letting Cleveland have a do-over from last year doesn't seem unfair.jimcunningham posted:Kings to package pick w/ Gay and filler for Love? For the #8 and Rudy loving Gay I'd rather have 1 season of Love.

Since your team automatically improves minus Rudy Gay, he will probably be traded 3 times a year for the rest of his contract life.

To be fair to Cleveland Anthony Bennett is a pretty terrible player and giving them a second chance is for the best.

Simmons owned last night. The only thing that makes this acceptable is that the Cavs will undoubtedly ruin whoever they draft.

Harris has like all the same scoring skills as Stauskas and plays way better defense to boot.

Kibner posted:Does Patric Young project as a second rounder? How effective would he be in a Reggie Evans type role? Patric Young projects as a stupid jerk who I wrote profiles for two years in a row before he went back to school each year like a big dumb idiot. Anyways he actually has tiny arms and has a very short standing reach for a dude that's 6'10 so that will probably hurt his rebounding and/or his ability to eat Jeff Goldblum E: Realistically speaking, he's a garbage man on offense (albeit a very athletic and strong one). He wasn't a great rebounder in college and probably won't be in the NBA either, but he should (theoretically) be great at defending the pick and roll and can body up with most centers in the NBA. He'd be a great backup big man or an okay starter. Declan MacManus fucked around with this message at 15:36 on May 21, 2014 |

I don't know why I'm so bothered by Marcus Smart because I've seen him play and he wasn't bad, it's just I feel like the descriptions of him are actively trying to fool me. Like when people talk about Aaron Afflalo's defense.

MourningView posted:He shot really well as a freshman and then not as well as a sophomore. Looks like a clear case of being in decline, he'll presumably be even worse in the NBA. Not that I need to care about any of these players, unless they're looking likely to drop to the #38 pick. At least that trade freed up the cap space to sign Brandon Jennings and Josh Smith! ha...ha....

Smart's game is going to work well in the NBA in my opinion. This isn't a flop joke, he can dominate at times, even when his shot isn't falling.

Sacramento fans seem to absolutely hate the idea of Aaron Gordon because who wants to use the #8 pick to draft a super athletic forward who plays really good defense when he's an inch too short and has no jumper

So im just going to root for that probably no room for him once Mirotic comes over The guy I'm most intrigued in for the Bulls is Kyle Anderson. His biggest liabilities are 1) being slow as hell and 2) having bad defensive mechanics. But being slow is no big deal in the Bulls offense, and Thibs tends to turn guys into good defenders Emanuel Collective fucked around with this message at 16:42 on May 21, 2014 |
