For the record I wasn't asking Bbert if HE wanted a player or an orator, I was agreeing with him that it was stupid to ask MKG about speech issues, because he is a player, not an orator. I mean, who cares? Just to be clear.

LOL. I'm enjoying this non-basketball misunderstanding much more than the 30 days War of the Lillard that's been raging on here. :) I think it was your use of the generic "you" when you meant "they". It threw me for a second, too. :cheers:
 
Nobody with any fred is posting in this OLD draft thread!

After this latest Milwaukee/Houston move, I could see Golden State being more enticed to trade the #7 pick to Houston for #12 and #16.

will just put it in both threads

Disagree. Quality > quantity.

Quality is more important than quantity -- especially in a sport where only five guys can take the court at a time -- but are players in the teens of this draft all that inferior to guys at 6 and 11? I see a whole kludge of guys in that third and fourth tier.

That's not disagreeing with me.

I agree quality over quantity. For me, depending on what else Portland thinks they can do this summer.....

I think the #6 is pretty damn close in quality to #2. I think you can get a guy at #6worthy of the #2. So also keeping the #11 and getting a decent player there does mean that #6 and #11 is quality and quantity.
 
Im pretty sure my head is about to explode and its not even tomorrow yet.


And I just realized how dirty that sounded when I read it back. Hmmm oh well, fuck it.
 
This is scary but i agree with Canzano

John Canzano ‏@JohnCanzanoBFT

The guys I like today for Portland at No. 6 and No. 11... Damian Lillard and Terrance Ross. Your turn.

I've been really quiet this last couple weeks here. but me agreeing with canzano is something i had to share.

Actually, that's the part that really made it dirty - you noticing it, keeping it, and then ending the way you did.

Kentucky freshman Anthony Davis appears to be a lock to go No. 1 to New Orleans in Thursday's NBA draft, leaving Florida freshman Bradley Beal as the most coveted player.

Charlotte is considering offers for the No. 2 pick, notably from No. 4 Cleveland, and if the Bobcats were to pass on Beal for some reason No. 3 Washington is ready to scoop him up.

But the desire to nab Beal isn't limited to the top four.

The chances of a playoff team getting Beal are slim, but Finals runner-up Oklahoma City has invested quality time figuring out a way to get up high enough to land Beal.

Beal told ESPN/ESPN.com Wednesday that Oklahoma City general manager Sam Presti told him during an interview in Chicago that he was interested in trying to move up to draft him. The Thunder's first-round pick currently isn't until No. 28.

"He told me he was going to decide what they're going to do and considered getting up there," said Beal.

Beal said Denver, which picks at No. 20, also made a similar statement.

Bradley Beal says Jeff Taylor played toughest D on him and will make a good pro: "Very strong. He has the body for it. He can guard 1-5."

Neil Oshley and staff have narrowed it down to 4 candidates, Quick "Thinks": Lillard, Lamb, Leonard, PJIII. No on Drummond.

Blazers Pretty sure who's going 1-4, after that its a crab-shoot

Oshley insists he's a BPA guy, the one message was the draft is simply a step in the process of gathering assets

Judge the Blazers on July 20th

Looks like they'll use the picks at the moment, not enough out there being offered to trade. However draft fever might hit tomorrow.

A couple of things

1. Thanks
2. Crab shoot?
3. Leonard and PJIII at #6
4. Judge them the 20th makes me think trading the picks and people going WTF?

At least Quick's more professional than I would be. Even if it came from Olshey's mouth that he's thinking of Leonard, Lamb or PJ3 at #6 I'd call B.S. and wouldn't write it up. Seriously? That's Araujo-level...or maybe Saer Sene.
 
well, we also have pick 11. Why would you assume hose guys at 6?
 
because he said "4 candidates". There's a shot Lillard's gone at #6, so by definition... :dunno:
 
Ben Golliver
Damian Lillard on reports that his workout with Blazers was off the charts: "It was a great workout. It was just one of those days where I had a lot of energy. Well-rested. I just felt good... I did hear that they were saying it was the best since Kevin Durant, but they didn't draft Kevin Durant, so I don't put too much stock into it at all. I just try to focus on what I can control, and that's when I get to the workouts, showing that I work hard, showing my strengths and going to the next gig."
