2015 NBA DRAFT

Feel like dudes like that who just watch game tape and want to work out at 3 am are never busts, if he were American coach k or calipari would be blathering about his work ethic 24/7

Dude should get some sleep.

he does seem legit but i was more thinking, porzingis bro there are reasons why people have these fears (although at the same time i dont understand him worrying about the "soft" perception, its more that the milicics of years past were space cases and the bargnanis were incompetent, etc)

like, i'd be surprised if anyone thought milicic was soft, for example, and be curious how long they remained healthy if saying that to his face lol

zingis played a srs role with good results in the 2nd best league in the world, hes totally not a euro man of mystery, if anything his results from last year are more bankable than one and done college dudes and like a million times more than mudiays partial season in china

someone done a harden mixtape on przingis

just readin some draft coverage and

C Willie Cauley-Stein, Kentucky

Cauley-Stein isn't a human and should become an elite rim protector.

i feel like if they were ever able to make a robot NBA player it would be an elite rim protector that has trouble developing any semblance of a post move

true i'm not counting it out

hezonja we don't believe you u need more people https://twitter.com/maxrappaport/status/612701818431348736

he is prob better than messi tho

well he didn't specify what he was better than messi at so he can't be wrong about that at least, true

assumed he was talking abt basketball

seeing as how messi doesn't play that professionally if at all I don't think that makes much sense to say, bc maybe messi is really awful and like idk luke babbitt is also better than him but forget it jake it's eurotown I suppose

top four picks seemed locked in at towns okafor russell porzingis in some order

I'm still not convinced this Porzingis is anything but some kind of Polish sausage.

played a very good season in the 2nd best league in the world, is tall athletic and skilled

Porzingis seems overly deliberate to me, and I don't really believe the jumper

but obviously you have to take him top 10, there's a lot of tools there and if he puts on muscle he might go from seeing deliberate to seeming quick.

Bargnani's bustitude is 100% a lack of dedication and work ethic. Porzingis isn't really even close to Bargnani from a talent level.

I don't think anyone really knows what happened with Milicic. Wouldn't surprise me if it was drugs all along. He was a 17 year old starting and producing in Europe who had all the physical tools you could ask for and then he showed up in Detroit and had trouble converting wide open dunks.

lol ainge tried to trade smart and the 16th and 28th picks for noel and the 3rd pick

does he ever sleep? i just picture notebooks, whiteboards and crumpled papers filled with trade scenarios scattered throughout his house.

he only concocts trades, goes to the office to make the occasional formal calls and goes to mormon church

If you put your hand over his mouth in that pic he looks like he's in deep emotional anguish.

now is the time when we watch draft xpress souting breakdowns https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWOjHoJ-U6A

seems like zingis is skilled but not really a natural baller, a lot will depend on exactly how good his shooting is if hes just an ok shooter he cld end up a pretty meh player but if he is a great shooter he cld be v valuable, he is very skinny but young he will put on some weight but he doesnt have a big frame and needs to get a lot stronger, can he learn to attack the close out and make the right read, seems like he wld benefit from playing on a team thats p structured offensively, dont think theres any way id take him over towns-russell-okafor

exactly how I feel about him: not a natural player.

And the jumper is kinda weird.

I thought that defensive lowlights video was unpersuasive tho, he mostly just looked overeager and only got roasted by much smaller players pretty far outside the paint.

last I checked DX was holding firm with having him 10th on their big board.

yep still ranked 10

I will admit that his workout was pretty dope as far as workouts go. It fomented some admiration from me.

Actual exchange today:

Me: "If you could go to dinner with any 3 people...?"
Porzingis: "Rihanna, Beyonce and Jay-Z—like a double date."

Love him, draft him

haha nice

frank going for meme status, savvy marketing team

he's memeable

i'm pretty high on kaminsky tbh, would like it if the pacers take him

seems like a backup to me

he projects like a poor mans kevin love but i think he'll be good enough to start

chad ford on the lowe post said that mario hezonja's primary NBA comparison player is...

...J.R. smith

lololol

chad ford mock draft

he has the celtics taking sam dekker at 16 which wld not upset me

good pick at 16 but i hope they trade up

yeah obvs id prefer as much sweet trade action as possible

i think dekker should go way higher than it seems like he's going to go
