Nugz get 2 of my 3 fav players in the draft. Murray and Beasley. See if Beasley stays there.

Great point. Two shooting guards in the first round, plus we already got Gary Harris. Got a feeling Beasley is on the move.

Lavert is so soft man. Guys will be on the bench in a suit IMO.

adding a big man that can shoot is a big deal in the nba nowadays...

Are the Lakers bringing back Hibbert? Dont they needa center at some point?
Hibbert is gone. I would be estatic if we found a way to get Skal, even if he were just playing a backup role for us

its because its so weak....supposedly anyway...

Ainge's strategy didnt account fora few things.

First- draft picks are worth a lot more when everyone is up against the cap--- cheap talent with some upside....

when everyone is tripping over themselves for more cap room to sign vets- and some teams dont even WANT first round pciks because they take up guaranteed cap room- the price of first rounderse is going to plummet....thats what we have seen with all the trades today.

Ainge got screwed.....the draft capital market crashed and now he is stuck with a ton of young guys on a roster that already had a way otoo much depth and young guys.

hes gonna have to make ad eal he doesnt want to make to clean this mess up. A true shark GM would be hovering.

I wonder if the Hawks are going to re-sign Bazemore or if they're going to immediately start Prince. I'd rather do the latter. I'm ready for rebuild mode.

al horford is my under the radar pickup. assuming they can't get whiteside. thinking trading teague is enough for him to leave atlanta.

Deyonta Davis is falling because he is a dumbass in his interviews.

God, let's hope so. I like Horford, but I don't want to give him a max deal.

I think OKC did really really well in that trade.
