Official 2014 NBA Draft Day thread

[MickZagger]

If we for some miraculous reason get Lebron and win a championship. It won't feel that sweet. To me it will be a cheap title.

That's just me though.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

The draft day sucked cawk.

I can't wait to hear Rice rave about practice.

 

[The_Lillard_King]

Please. Who is a FA next year? Why would they wait on 2015 when they can just go after the best player in the world right now?

Please be real with your analysis and stop with the Lebron to Ptd. I think you are actually convincing yourself of this . . . and that can't be healthy.

 

[OneLifeToLive]

My guess is Neil has him on lockdown

The larger question, with the lack of maneuvering whose got BG in lockdown here in the forum?

 

[The_Lillard_King]

Exactly. I'm betting on a sign and trade for someone. We have batum and/or Matthews to use, plus some recent lotto picks like McCollum and Leonard.

Speaking of bets, I am the resident better around here if you are serious.

 

[santeesioux]

Why's that????

What you got?

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

OKC
HOU
LAC
GS

All with young cores

Portland is as well-rounded as any of them. GS didn't do shit. We beat Houston (I'll be worried if they get Lebron - otherwise, don't come at me brah).

Nobody said it'd be easy. It won't be no matter what we so this offseason, though. Unless we uncover an unknown Michael Jordan.

I'm right here dude.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Paul has to buy the rights to Micic!

 

[OneLifeToLive]

I'm right here dude.

Whatever you were paid, you weren't paid enuff

I'm not trying to convince myself. I'm trying to convince the blazer fans on here to see the fit and not dismiss it so quickly

 

[MickZagger]

Bill Simmons cracks me up.

"Whenever I watched Pittsburgh I always thought that guy would be fun to play with".

 

[santeesioux]

Okay, Neil.

 

[MickZagger]

I disagree. He should barter the rights to Zgerbzhenvalivich.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

This team has had more luck in the second round than the lotto, for the most part.

Patty Mills
josh McRoberts
Will Barton
Omar Asik
Dante Cunningham

There's talent left!

LeBron is one that likes to shock the world. Or he likes that kind of attention

This here is something that would. Question is, do the Blazers want him bad enough to move any of their current pieces to get him

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Whatever you were paid, you weren't paid enuff

Still better than you're paid.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Patric Young
Micic

You really think olshey would hesitate for even a second to give up nicolas batum and a couple of bench players for the best player in the game?

Getting Lebron here is victory enough. That shit ain't happening. It'd be like boning a sexy 15-year vet prostitute rubber-less and not getting an STD. That shit NEVER happens.

Unfortunately for you, you're right

I don't know...He might be happy with his nice little team.


I think Miami took a nice step forward in their chances in keeping him with the pick of Napier.

Well, it's pretty rare, but you were born, after all.

Maybe that should have been us. Just to send him a tiny message. Hey, were interested!

That little team is not good enough to win a championship. Isn't that the goal? A couple bench players won't push the team over the top unless were getting a starting caliber player to come off it. We've got a window right now. You get lebron and you become the front runner.

 

[Scalma]

Move the needle neil!

Touche.

lol

 

[PDXFonz]

This draft really did suck. Had the potential for tons of action, ended up being the dullest draft in a while.

 

[OneLifeToLive]

Did Cmeese get banned? He prob should have. I have never seen anyone get by with the crap he gets by with.

If he wasn't busy doing what he was doing, The Pops of the world would be active even as we speak.
