2016 NBA Draft Thread

[SHAQATTACK]

I'm not watching any more Nets games

Ainge had Butler and screwed it up. Bradley is hurt often...Crowder blue collar

LOL at the certainty with which most of you guys were speaking about Butler to the TWolves .

This board is really slow.  annoying.  Also why do people report that the celtics made a surprising pick at 16.  I think i said ainge was going to do something different there.  What did people really expect then to waste it on overrated talent they don't need?

Because they are knee jerk and make up their minds before the fact, even though this draft is clearly very flat talent wise after the first few picks.  And also because journalists who sit around and mock draft are clearly so plugged in and the best evaluators of talent in the NBA.  So much so that they don't get paid to do it and work as journalists.

That's what I mean though.  They are the ones reporting crap and then they are like surprising pick. It isn't surprising.  They also weren't nice enough to get this board up and running right on the biggest night of the year either. I've worked in IT and don't do that crap to people either.

I hate pandering to idiocy and ignorance in general. It's not real kindness.

Nets will probably take Lab, I doubt they worked out anyone for this slot

[knuckleballer]

We need some height, but Luwawu would be tempting if he's still available.

LOL at this thread.  "I don't know who this player is, so I'm going to assume he sucks because I know more than the GMs paid to make these picks!"

I do know that undersized power forwards are not breakout stars in the NBA. Would you be excited at the prospect of drafting a luminary like the next Zach Randolph? lol! It's not that I assume this guy sucks, it's that I have valid empirical evidence that every small power forward Danny has picked is playing in Europe or China - and I don't have faith in him to evaluate that kind of talent.

He always takes the same guys: combo guards who can't shoot; under-sized power forwards, and some tall dinosaur who lacks the supplemental brain in his but like those poor Brazilian kids.

[Chief]

Danny going to trade up?

Or are all those assets too valuable?

[manl_lui]

On the plus side, it's gonna be a lot of fun to hear Tommy say Guerschon Yabusele.

Mike

Can we just call him Yab?

YABA DABA DU!

[Moranis]

Lavert.  Stupid Nets.

this basically

all we know for now is that Danny thinks differently than DraftExpress.

Nets take someone who was projected to go mid-second round. I don't know what's going on anymore.
