@WojYahooNBA: Marcus Smart is emerging as serious consideration for Utah with fifth pick, league sources tell Yahoo. Smart didn't workout for Jazz.

Eh, not working out either means he got a promise from someone or he's trying to trick a team into thinking he got a promise from someone. No harm in gaming the system a bit

I think this is true if you have a body of work, but if your an unknown it would worry me a bit. Like I said, he's still probably going top-5.

I thought it was more than just the Cavs, I thought he only had 2 or 3 teams he'd work out for.

I'm really disappointed that there's no one obviously as terrible as Jan Vesely to go in the lottery this year.

James Young might go late lottery

Aaron Gordon reminds me a lot of Vesely so when Philly panics and picks him at 3 I will telepathically send you my laughter

Does Aaron Gordon have a highlight real where is only offensive move is violently dunking on eastern europeans who have to stub out their cigs at the free throw line?

What was that blurb I read on the Kentucky boards about James Young and character concerns? Does he run with a bad crowd or something?

My favorite thing about the Jan Vesely highlight reels are that they included his free throws

Honestly, no idea. I've hung out with him a few times and there's nobody he associates with that would raise those kind of concerns, imo. He's a really nice/cool dude, no clue what they're talking about.

Well to be fair I wasn't paying that close attention and it was in the thread where they were trying to say Wiggins being at a club where somebody was stabbed and being questioned by the police about it (along with everyone else at the club) was a red flag.

edit: not accusing UK fans of overreacting, people just have different ideas of what "character concerns" actually are. Like all young men should be at home practicing not hanging out at some club with those hoodlums! *polishes off 9th can of busch light*

I clicked this just in time to see the camera just rolling filming that reporter's rear end on the bus.

edit: and now just randomly filming the ceiling of the bus.

I like how they identified who is filming while the camera is bouncing up and down randomly filming the walls like my mom with a cell phone camera.

The interviews are awkward but the camera work is just so hilariously terrible.

edit: I don't think he has managed to get someone's face framed in the camera successfully so far.
