How does Rutgers go 15-17 and finish 11th in the Big Ten with Harper and Bailey?  The Big Ten wasn't strong.  What does it say about Harper and Bailey?

So Edgecombe is the next Sixers victim.  He apparently shot poorly when he worked out for them so that's a start.

Was he projected to go that high?

Yes after Bailey dropped.

Yeah, he's been talked about at 3 to Philly or 4 to Charlotte for a while now.

I don?t get that pick for Philly when they already have Maxey and McCain. VJ is a 6?4?/190lb guard. He?s not a wing.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Still just such a sham that Dallas ended up with the first pick. These kinds of narrative driven ?coincidences? happen way too frequently to be random.


Mavs make one of, if not the worst trade in NBA history. Then they land the #1 pick with a 1% chance, then the Lakers get sold for $10B. Nothing to see here, Folks!

The worry in me is that the Lakers can now give out big contracts to anyone with little drawback, like how Walter does to the Dodgers.

Great pick for Utah. They needed a wing, badly. Danny must be over the moon.

Yeah. Not sure the Celtics are going to be able to trade up.

Good pick for the Pelicans with Fears, thought he was going to Washington.

Brooklyn?s kind of stuck at 8. Might be where the talent drops off.
