baseball is weird

blazers just traded Steve Blake for the third time

hinkie... took... another... center

Hinkie is on fire

Fraschilla compared Gudaitis to Aron Baynes, which is funny cuz they're both athletic guys that people refuse to call athletic for some reason.

He also said he plays above the rim in lithuania but won't in the NBA, whatever the hell that means.

he means that nobody in lithuania can jump

yeah but the rim is the same height!

man cliff alexander being undrafted would be a stunning fall from a year ago

Singh has some Steven Adams qualities about him

so happy that Pat Connaughton justified my one Blazers t-shirt. but he might still just play baseball?

he looks sluggish, but they showed him shooting long range so he's basically new dirk

I see we've moved into the ignoring picks portion of the draft on ESPN

the hawks picked an extremely skinny swedish shooting guard who recently suffered a torn ACL

Stephen A Smith live via satellite to dis the Porzingis pick

i have to turn the volume down about 50% as soon as he starts talking.

cliff alexander was a consensus top 5 recruit last year, went undrafted http://247sports.com/Season/2014-Basketball/CompositeRecruitRankings?InstitutionGroup=HighSchool

Here’s the problem with replacing your front office right before the draft. Vlade & Karl had never seen Mudiay play. Mudiay > WCS

for the love of god man

#TrustTheProcess is a pretty fun hashtag to search for Philly gallows humor

sure man

truth hurts

i support yr heat fandom jordan :)

"Hollis-Jefferson can defend three to four positions, is a terrific athlete, a solid playmaker and a great teammate. Stacey Augmon might be his floor, but someone like Andre Iguodala could be his ceiling."

This seems like a small room.

Heat fans should focus more on Hassan Whiteside continuing to be a top 5 center and less on celebrating drafting a guy who was projected to go almost exactly where they got him.

yeah hard to imagine winslow is underrated considering where he played def a couple goofball pick above him tho

on Hassan Whiteside continuing to be a top 5 center

which is contingent on him managing to not have a full-on rage meltdown on the court, which is aaaaalways in play - i think it's reasonable insurance lol

how do you focus on a player in the offseason? is he doing open workouts?

lol I mean what exactly are you doing other than swallowing Heat PR about Winslow, watching some Whiteside 2015 mixes isn't really different

u can appreciate two players at once it cool

i guess I'm just sick of people falling for the "we had him 4th on our board!" thing

it's more a function of mock draft culture

like the Heat saying that they thought the knicks would take him, give me a fucking break

there isn't any mock drafts that had winslow falling, that's all it is

he only fell a couple few spots tho
