    If it's such a bad draft, why wouldn't you try and hit a homerun?

    No such thing as a safe pick either. I could easily see Oladipo sucking.
    Shut your face, ******.

    Noel and Davis on the front line. Two defensive minded players.
  • Laley23
    lol. Noel and Davis??? That is a crazy frontline, defensively, if they can play together.
  • Crimson streak
    Stupid pick for Nola

    Thomas to the Pacers reminds me of Sullinger to the Celtics last year. Seemed like a great fit that seemed too good to actually happen but really did happen. Hopefully it's the same for Thomas this year. I really just want to see Buckeyes go to teams that are good so they'll be on TV and not end up on a shitty team that nobody cares about, haha. Thomas on the Pacers would be badass though. He hits the boards, can knock down 3's, can score from anywhere 25 feet on in. How the hell is he not a first round pick in this draft??? With George there he won't be relied on to be the main offensive weapon so he can excel as a second or third scorer and get second chance points. Again, how is he not a first round pick??? lol.

    The Pelicans with 2 centers. Great.

    lol...worst draft I can think of....ever.
  • robj55
    Here's the problem, the team still can't score. You have two offensive liabilities in the front court. Cuts Ryan Anderson's minutes too.

    Why would Nola not take Burke? hmmm

    Vasquez is serviceable but nothing more.

    Shane Battier as an interviewer reminds me of A.C. Slater on Saved by the Bell when they hosted the radio show. Slow and dumb.

    I honestly think they should be the 2nd best team along with Spain, behind the USA.

    Trey Lyles
    Kelly Olynyk
    Anthony Bennett
    Andrew Wiggins
    Nik Stauskas
  • robj55
    I guess that means that Tyreke Evans won't be back there.
  • friendfromlowry
    Also, the draft would have been over by now if Stern wasn't coming to the podium and awkwardly standing there smiling each pick.
  • Mulva
    Time for me to start hoping we have a trade worked out for mclemore and cousins. Who knows, Bennett seems like a good kings fit.
  • Terry_Tate
    David Stern might just walk off the stage tonight giving the double bird with that huge grin.

    I agree. I think he would come off the bench and be instant offense.

    Plus, being from Fort Wayne, he would be playing in front of the home crowd. If he is there, I dont see how the Pacers pass on him (which means they will).

    B Mac is a G

    Pope out of Georgia to Detroit.
  • robj55
    Who will mentor him? Tough situation. He flashes greatness but mostly seemed to not show up in key moments and disappeared too much from what I saw. Probably the highest ceiling though.

    Noel has been traded to Philly for Jrue Holiday and a pick

    So NO gets a PG afterall
  • Laley23
    So NO took BPA and used it as trade bait. Cant hate that move.

    2014 first rounder is what I'm seeing on Twitter.
