Stern trying to get the boos from the crowd. Love it.

"long and bouncy" is a shit descriptor.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:10 (eleven years ago) link
Stern soaking up boos on draft night is a beautiful annual ritual.
xp Cs picks were pretty great tho, no?
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:10 (eleven years ago) link
i don't get why the heat wouldn't keep this pick
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:11 (eleven years ago) link
that was such a masterwork by stern btw
I'm not sold on Fab Melo. Sullinger should be fine, and was good value if his back holds up.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:11 (eleven years ago) link
I dunno, Cs picking in the 20s, taking a chance on Sullinger seems like a draft-night steal. Plus the fact that Boston fans can scream Suuuuuuuuuullllllllllllllllyyyy = MAJOR UPSIDE.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:13 (eleven years ago) link
John Hollinger @johnhollingerThink this is penny-wise pound-foolish by Miami. Never get a better value than late-1st rookie contract.
^^ exactly
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:13 (eleven years ago) link
the heat should've taken doron lamb or draymond green or perry jones and laughed on the way home

LADIES & GENTLEMAN, THE PORTLAND TRAILBLAZERS:
Jason Quick @jwquickBlazers center Meyers Leonard suffered a stress fracture in his right foot coming into college and a strained MCL in left knee last summer
There are some legit great players still available.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:15 (eleven years ago) link
wow, the thunder getting perry jones just isn't fair
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:15 (eleven years ago) link
need a gif of those two utah kids
― moullet, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:15 (eleven years ago) link
OKC getting a deal if Jones can screw his head on.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:15 (eleven years ago) link
Baylor fans will make the road trip to watch him too.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:16 (eleven years ago) link
Totally non-plussed at no one picking up Green. Dude won't ever be an all-star, but dude also has the body/hands and, most importantly, doesn't take plays off, which is almost as unteachable as height.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:17 (eleven years ago) link
you'd imagine that durant, harden & westbrook will be able to whip him into shape
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:17 (eleven years ago) link
fran fraschilla is awesome, he should be up there instead of broussard
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:18 (eleven years ago) link
Fact that Teague/Miller/Green are still there = serious 2nd Rnd steals.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:19 (eleven years ago) link
Roy Hibbert @Hoya2aPacer
I don't know why people are so mad about Miles. I saw his workout he killed. He's gonna b good for the pacers.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:20 (eleven years ago) link
well that's good!
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:21 (eleven years ago) link
thunder & bulls shouldn't be getting players this good
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:22 (eleven years ago) link
Aw, Roy, good teammate, even if he's totally fucking wrong. Hope he's gonna b good 4 Pacers, 2, Hib.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:23 (eleven years ago) link
So uh where are all the crazy trades?
Waiting for free agency, it seems.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:24 (eleven years ago) link
ha, bulls drafting a PG
RIP d rose we hardly knew ye

Oh lord Stern, LOVE YOU.

stern just luxuriously bathing in hate <3
― Clay, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:28 (eleven years ago) link
Always good to draft a limited 22 year old big man who grabs 6 rebounds a game in the first round.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:29 (eleven years ago) link
that stern ending was great
sometimes i forget i hate his guts

Was about to say.
XPs Actually one of the few times where luxuriating works.

Did Stern do a New Jersey line? Would like to think that he would've milked it for 5-10 seconds just to soak in some glorious boos.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:34 (eleven years ago) link
BTW there must be some crazy trade deals going on right now-- so many great players for cheap available right now.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:35 (eleven years ago) link
Aww, Bernard James getting drafted is nice.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:41 (eleven years ago) link
v v v cool pick there.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:42 (eleven years ago) link
"locker room guy" 2nd round pick is smart imo.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:43 (eleven years ago) link
Not to be al ¯\(°_o)/¯ but jesus 2nd round is deeper at this moment than maybe ever. Kinda dumbfounded by the talent that's fallen. Some teams need to get their Van Exel on.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:45 (eleven years ago) link
Mavs did well in that trade.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:47 (eleven years ago) link
trading down in this draft looking pretty smart atm
― Clay, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:50 (eleven years ago) link
Hope Draymond goes ham for the next 1,000 NBA games and makes every single team regret not taking him earlier.
― *:? (CompuPost), Friday, 29 June 2012 02:50 (eleven years ago) link
This gaucho going to the Pacers according to Chad Ford.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:52 (eleven years ago) link
back to back quincys, this is amazing
― Clay, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:55 (eleven years ago) link
wroten's probably a good pick for the grizz. had NO ONE to back up conley this year
― k3vin k., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:55 (eleven years ago) link
aw shit the nuggets picked quincy miller
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 June 2012 02:57 (eleven years ago) link
Hollinger will declare them the draft winner.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 29 June 2012 02:58 (eleven years ago) link
Well not sure how I feel about the chase b. trade now, but I think it's just because it makes draft night boring when your team doesn't have a high pick
Also it's quite weird, as a wolves fan, not to have been embroiled in a months-long drama about the lottery, then how we got screwed by the lottery, then how is the team going fuck up the pick, etc....it's been so long since we haven't had a top pick, feels weird

Luckily for you this year didn't have a great point guard crop so you didn't miss much.
