2018 NBA OFFSEASON

So I wonder what the hawks can get for Schroeder. Is vucevic any good? Orlando needs a pg bad

vucevic prob best in a back up role due to his bad defense, he can fill it up otherwise tho

i like that trade tho schroeder feels like a good magic lol

bunch of weird lanky guys just running around throwing up bricks

blazers really filling a hole by picking an undersized scoring combo guard >:[

makes me wonder whether the blazers are anticipating creating the hole they filled?

bigtime robert williams fan here, maybe the biggest, i always believed in him

Boston keeps adding young talent!

love that they still do that weird little harpsichord riff with each pick.

btw the barred from spoiling picks wojs feed is hilarious tonight

Source: Boston is tantalized by Robert Williams with the 27th pick.

lol

woj really just let his nuts hang tonight, inspired stuff

amazing performance by woj, makes me like him way way more than i did.

with really no incentive to do so other than he lives for this shit

re: robert williams, the fact that he shot like 40something % from the line isn't great, but they can def use a big man and in addition to being ranked in the lottery by some guys he was the last big man for like 30 picks. also likely keeps them from looking at dwight howard so all in all i love it at #27.

27th: is tantalized by
26th: are enamored with
25th: are unlikely to resist

working his thesaurus to the bone tonite

danny wld never acquire dwight i believe this with all my soul, dwight has the anti mindtype

i want to believe that but i think they've def looked at it once or twice

look but dont touch

shoutout to the knicks for selecting the dude who literally went awol from his college team and then just didn't play for a year

ha nice very knicksian

lol

btw reaching for mo wagner = magic/pelinka are clueless

heh

fans at Braclays Center now screaming for LiAngelo Ball to get drafted with each pick

magic are officially Kings East

nah weltman and hammond are pretty good. they'll come up with a decent team if they get the time to do so.

something i've been thinking about is how there's a really good chance that the first two players selected in this draft don't end up being in the top 5 players this draft produces.

I'm an Ayton skeptic. But then, teams with lottery picks usually have lottery picks because they have crappy front offices who make bad draft picks, give bad contracts and make bad trades.

pretty wild no current players were traded tonight

Experienced (non-draftee) players to be traded on draft night/day:
2018: 0
2017: 11
2016: 11
2015: 18
2014: 9

it's bad

I mean why trade future assets for a current player to try and compete with (a) Warriors (b) Rockets (c) wherever LeBron ends up.

My fellow Pistons fans are completely delusional.

The Detroit Pistons traded for Khyri Thomas, a defensive wing from Creighton, who should add to their depth on the wing.

Thomas, 22, is a 6-foot-4 shooting guard with a 6-10 wingspan and scouts out as a 3-and-D prospect. He was a terror on defense in the Big East, winning two consecutive Big East defensive player of the year awards. He’s also a career 40 percent 3-point shooter with over 300 career attempts in college.

The Pistons reportedly will send two future second-round picks to the Sixers, who drafted Thomas No. 38 overall. The Pistons also drafted Bruce Brown with their own pick at No. 42 overall.

Some quality insane comments:

Kyhri might actually be the perfect fit at PG with this roster.

Age a side this kid has everything you want in a prospect. He’s a top defender, he can slash and get his shot, he is an career 40% 3pt shooter and his is a competent passer. They got him in the second. Based on those skills alone he should have been a top 20 pick. Someone please explain. There are guys who can’t do half of what he can. Plus he does efficiently. Has the Pistons luck turned.

Really liking our draft.

Who knows if it will translate, but I'm seeing some Kawhi-like traits in Kyrhi

- Excellent defender who can guard the whole perimeter and insane efficient offense.
- Avg 15 ppg on only 10 FGA (takes only good shots from what I’ve read)
- 54% FG (64% 2FG) – crazy for a 6-3 guard.
- .650 TS this year (.607 over his 3 yr career) – again crazy for a guard.
- Appear to have similar body types too.

Very excited about this pick.

lol who was even running the pistons draft?

Tom Gores!

Gores lives in Beverly Hills, California[28] with his wife Holly[29] and three children, Katrina, Amanda, and Charles.[30] He also has a condo in Birmingham, Michigan.[31]

The Celtics have not been able to track down Robert Williams for his conference call this morning. It has been postponed.

skype meeting issues

lol hawks pulled out of a trade with the bucks to move up bc of leaked pick tweets

i've heard the case made that doncic may make more sense for a team that's a little further along and young may make more sense for a team that's a blank slate (also young next to smith wouldn't work at all), but yeah ultimately it's a straight player evaluation and someone is going to come out on top.

i like the gamble tbf. picked up two great shooters yesterday

remember schlenk was a warriors front office guy so im sure he'd love to duplicate what he had there.

what is the general consensus on what doncic is ready to provide immediately?

from what i have read and heard, size, passing ability, and transition offense

i respect the Hawks' attempt to find the next great hoisting team

doncic is 19 so hes 19

i just wanna say that the last time the spurs had a dude with tall hair it was HOFer and MVP david robinson and now we have lonnie walker whose hair is EVEN TALLER so therefore he will be the next donovan mitchell/d wade and im here for this shit

like him and dejounte in the backcourt for the foreseeable future is nice IF ONLY THEY HAD A WING PLAYER TO GO WITH EM HMMMMMM

doncic is 19 so hes 19
