now that hinkie is gone danny is the new Trust the Process and with the nets moving into tank mode they'll prob have another very high pick in what could be a (dramatic pause) very good draft next year

nets choosing to blow it up for draft picks instead of put together a not quite terrible team from free agents is truly mana from heaven

Anyone know about the two dudes the warriors got? Damian Jones at 30 and Pat MCcaw at 38
I watched highlights and what not, seem good on the surface, but wondering if anyone has an inside track on them

this is basically true, although at least the celtics can like, try to win games (and succeed) in the interim, which philly wouldn't and brooklyn simply won't be able to (although they'll try bc they have no choice)

Kinda feel bad that the only guy from my high school to ever be drafted was drafted by the team that drafted every player on earth that year

If he had a better rookie season than Porzingis it would be totally shocking

does anyone know anything about the greek guy the kings too lol vlade is really wilding
Big solid stiff, not sure why they did that. It wasn't a bad pick in a vacuum.
Vlade compared him to WCS which is really weird

i have no idea what to make of that ibaka deal. just two years ago, ibaka was the third part of their core. adams improved play + acquiring kanter + injuries put him on a v minor slide.
Is it that minor? He gets worse every year. His TS% has declined 3 straight years and his blk% 4 straight. And by significant amounts.

Dubs ended up busier than I expected last night:
They only had one first round pick but ended up with three other players, two of which went undrafted. that 8 footer from UC Irvine that isnt any good but also Robert Carter Jr
they got two of the five from this list which means they will obv be all stars within a couple years:https://theringer.com/five-nba-draft-sleepers-to-get-excited-about-b667e182968e#.n4ijw2967

and fwiw there has been a fair amount of sports age fraud in some of the areas of africa where birth certificates arent routinely issued, iirc a good chunk of the nigerian youth soccer team got busted not long ago

I'm usually skeptical of such things but when a guy begins a steep decline at 24 with no major injuries...
People used to say the same thing about Mutombo but he was a rock for 15 years.

Mutumbo was still pretty productive his last few years. My friend used to always be the rockets on nba2k6 and he would play him and Yao together and I swear I couldn't get a shot of inside
