Event 2018 NBA Draft

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

But why are we even wasting time talking about what was or wasn’t reported? All one needs to do is watch/read about DiVincenzo to know he falls right in line with what Olshey is looking for. Neil isn’t a tough nut to crack.
Connaughton looks at DiVencenzo and sees the younger, hotter version of himself.

And I misspoke about the Nurk "deal" being known. We were just mentioned as a potential destination in a number of places... here's one example:

https://www.foxsports.com/nba/story...ams-that-should-trade-for-jusuf-nurkic-012117

and as well as on blazersedge etc. And the Zach Collins thing is above and elsewhere, so I'm claming 2/3 veracity on my original statement.

The day before the trade deadline = meh
 
Really??? Weak SAUCE...

NBA GMs go to college games. It's what they do.

Did HE say something?? Nope...

So you admit I have sauce. Agreed that he isn't going to say anything, but there were signs. I'm not sure this is what you are saying but I would agree that if NO is interested in a player above 24 then he probably hasn't been mentioned much.

People are in here freaking out over there being no news. Thus happens every damn year.
 
Here’s what will fix our roster...

If Mikal is there at 8 trade CJ/24 for Love/8

Draft Mikal

Take back Faried with our TPE for 14

Draft Huerter

Let Davis walk unfortunately, Pat too

Resign Nurk and Bazz

Nurk/Collins
Love/Chief
Mikal/Hark
Huerter/ET
Dame/Bazz

That’s our 10 man

KF, ML can get towels and water for those guys
I don't think they'd trade Love and 8 for CJ now. I think they know LeBron is gone and unless its a player like Kawhi that could keep him, I don't think they're trading #8 (unless it's up).
 
Only if we get 15 too.

Does 15+24 get us into the top 10? @BonesJones?

I want to get Bridges and avoid Philly landing him. Do we sweeten the pot?
Probably not. Sharper fall of between 10 and 15 this year compares to last, and we had to give up 15 and 20 then.
 
which poster will be the first to whine about the draft tonight and claim
And today is what? The day of the draft.

(and that second link was over a WEEK before.)

So rather than argue about what was known or not known about previous years drafts or trades, go out on a limb and tell us the results for Portland in this years draft. :bgrin:
 
I like Jay Bilas, but listening to his player analysis reports there are 60 impact players every year in the draft, lol.
 
Watched a bit more of Kevin Huerter...

He's got some handles and he ain't scurred...

Don't know if I'd trade up to get him...

He might be there at 24, apparently LA promised him at 25
