interesting both giannis and gobert were foreign project types, tho neither of them really ended up being projects


IIRC the questions about Gobert were about his effort level and motor which seem to have been WILDLY misplaced

Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 11 November 2017 21:43 (six years ago) link

it has to be the only draft in the lottery era where the non-lottery picks are demonstrably better than the non-lottery picks


The drug draft

w/ the rest of what he does on the floor that's still a useful rotation player

if a couple guys in this draft pan out as multiple all-star types the pick will (and should) be considered a disaster.

hehe

really tho for all the talk there will be about lonzo being a bust... if he can even get to like austin rivers' level scoring production, w/ the rest of what he does on the floor that's still a useful rotation player


He plays defense and rebounds so he’s not Kendall Marshall. But other things seem a lot like Kendall Marshall.

i don't recall a major "jamal murray is bad" groundswell?

clips have lost 7 of last 8

Spottie, Sunday, 12 November 2017 05:04 (six years ago) link

As a blazer follower, I at least know who will barton is. he's somewhat above average and a nice rotation player, who'll sometimes go off for a big night. Too bad the blazers didn't have the right roster to keep him.

A is for (Aimless), Sunday, 12 November 2017 05:12 (six years ago) link

yeah will barton is very much a known quantity, he's been 6th manning it up for the nugs for a few years now

ciderpress, Sunday, 12 November 2017 05:19 (six years ago) link

guys dont pretend to know all about will barton who is the merest suggestion of a man

lag∞n, Sunday, 12 November 2017 05:22 (six years ago) link

Lookis like the undefeated celtics will be playing the champs thursday. set your clocks

Spottie, Sunday, 12 November 2017 05:26 (six years ago) link

if I know my history and I think I do william t. barton was a union general from the great state of connecticut

Clay, Sunday, 12 November 2017 05:44 (six years ago) link

celtics will probably lose their win streak tomorrow because their good players no longer have brains or legs

ciderpress, Sunday, 12 November 2017 05:45 (six years ago) link

only god himself can beat the possessed boston celtics and even then only in the second game of a road back to back

He’s still so young but if he doesn’t shoot well what is he

They say 600 threes is when it’s not variance anymore and that’s barreling towards us here
