By IWMTB19 Go To PostThe entire franchise is in the Tyson Zone at this point.It's seriously like when David Kahn ran the Wolves. Everything seemed totally plausible because the reality was so crazy. Dude was telling Chris Webber on live television that Darko Milicic was manna from heaven.

By rodeoclown Go To PostWould he get those kinds of offers if he goes back to Cleveland and plays Channing Frye for another season?
By blackace Go To Postthat's exactly it. Noone going to rent him and his stock took a hit. I dont see a lot of teams maxing him todaylol, gordon hayward just got a max deal after the shit season he put up. Parsons got a max.
I mean, you've been following this NBA right? You really think Love won't get a max?
Hell, some of you laugh at Wes Mathews. And he may not get the full $15 he wants, but he's getting paid too unless he takes a 1 year deal. Not only is this the NBA where the logistics force overpaying for most players, this year is a special offseason due to the cap going up. Next year will be uber-special. Y'all aren't ready for the deals that are gonna be handed out.
Every year people do this. Every year people go "lol yeah right he wants X amount of money" and every year they get it or near it.
So yes, Love will still be offered as much money Greg monroe will be offered.
Pretty much.
Like, Avery Bradley is getting paid 8 million dollars per.
Love will get his supermax even if he averages 14ppg next year.

What's overpaid today will be reasonable or even underpaid next year. Player salary is just a reflection of the total revenue anyway, it's completely fair that they are paid that kind of money since the networks are willing to pay for it.
whaaaaaat?
people here think love won't get the max??
I just rewatched game 1 of the 95 finals. that rockets team was likeable as all hell. I almost couldn't watch nick anderson's free throws. that shit will haunt your dreams.

so apparently, Jerry West told Michael Eaves that Russell is the best player in the Draft and that he'll be a 15x All Star. Michael mentioned this conversation he had with the Logo on espn yesterday.
I told y'all about Russell, Ok4 aint shit.
Great minds think alike.
Knux, you scared breh, real scared now.

See the Klay deal
Looking into the Demarcus Cousins trade rumor post denial and you hear analyst and reporters saying the whole scenario might have been made up by Cousins agent Dan Fegan who fed the rumor to Woj to either get Cousins off the kings (perferably to LA) or to get Karl fired.

By pilonv1 Go To PostNo wonder the Warriors want to trade up then.
what are the warriors offering?
By Zeus Ex Machina Go To Postwhat are the warriors offering?Stands to reason they'd have to give up Klay or Draymond to get into the top 3.
I'm just kidding around. They have talked about moving up though, with some suggestion that if they get a higher pick (15-20) it will be easier to move Lee
Just watched the Myles Turner DX video.
IWMTB explain the difference between Porzingas and Turner. Seems like both have some Channing Frye in them to me

Turner is a better shotblocker and has a bigger frame so he can play center.
Both guys have the ceiling of Frye on offense, but I think Turner is much more likely to hit his ceiling defensively.
The only concern I have with Turner is his feet. Dude moves really really awkwardly...and that court spacing in college covered that up a lot. It's possible he may have zero hope of defending at starter level with those feet.
If he can figure that out, awesome potential.

I need Porzingis Hype Train, Embiid Panic and Karl chicanery to cause Russell to drop to #4. Otherwise it's trade down for the 7-footer with great footwork, good shotblocking but medical red flags or the 7-footer with a good outside touch, good shotblocking but terrible footwork.
still -120 on Kaminsky o/u 12
I put some change on it but am considering a large bet, I just can't see any possible way he'd go higher than 12. Vegas is going off popular mock draft rankings--not sure what fuckery Ford has right now but DX has him going at 10 to Miami--and it's just about the last place I'd expect Frank to go given Whiteside, Bosh, and McRoberts already covering and exceeding anything he'd bring to the table. I've heard Indy...but no.
I can't see Indy taking him over Turner or Portis or WCS (if he's still there). Charlotte has too many bigs as is. Utah fuckery is possible but...that's at 12, so it'd just push anyway.
A trade might be possible. But who the fuck would trade up higher than 12 for Frank?
I'm going to drop 300 on it.

If we cannot get Boogie, I want Porzingis. Dude is legit. Russell will be a poor mans Dante Exum. We need Porzi.

dude's stat is shit shit, meanwhile yurop legend like Dirk/Pau absolutely dominate yurop when they 18 year old and still had face like they were ready to play at MCU Spiderman movie
By psychintellect Go To PostLmao
chances you guys like frank? I don't see it..
indy is possible I guess...i'm sure bird likes him but...ehhhh
I have almost no angst about this draft. And I'm pretty sure they're giving away at least one of their second round picks to get rid of Anthony Bennett.

I still don't see any of the top 3 falling. Even if Okafor falls to 3 Hinkie can pick him up and look to get a late first for Embiid (Lakers 27 maybe) and come away from the draft smelling like roses as he goes about tanking again next season.
I still think its Winslow at #4. The kid can come in and play now, he has upside, won't freak out in NY, and has no injury concerns like WCS.
By psychintellect Go To PostDon't even know what he looks like. Could not care less about whatever trash we get with or pick.You ok with losing Wade?
I don't see how Russell busts. He's the second safest pick in the lottery. His synergy stats are obscene. And it's not like he played at Chattanooga State either.
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostI don't see how Russell busts. He's the second safest pick in the lottery. His synergy stats are obscene. And it's not like he played at Chattanooga State either.I really do think he'll be the Rookie of the Year. He's gonna be good, he does a ton of things. I just don't think he's a point guard and hopefully he isn't drafted by a team that wants to play him there full time.
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostI don't see how Russell busts. He's the second safest pick in the lottery. His synergy stats are obscene. And it's not like he played at Chattanooga State either.Highest Superstar chance AND Highest Bust chance due to Synergy Ratings. Probably due to limited athleticism and the fear that if he can get by his man his outside shot will suffer. I don't see it... dude has crazy handles and can distribute/rebound very well for a PG.

I just don't think he's a point guard and hopefully he isn't drafted by a team that wants to play him there full time.NY and Philly would be perfect for him. The dude is the perfect guard for the Triangle... can shoot, cuts well, great ballhandler but isn't strictly a PG.

he didn't get to the rim well in the half court:
http://deanondraft.com/2015/04/17/which-2015-prospects-get-to-the-rim-the-most/
he's got the shot and the smarts so he should be okay at the very least but i also would not be surprised if his middling athleticism and finishing ability caps his ceiling to something like courtney lee+
and hes going to be a shooting guard in the nba

I could see it going either way honestly. I don't think he has the tools to be successful if his jumpshot doesn't translate. So it'll depend on that mostly. If he comes in and it doesn't translate he's going to be an overconfident chucker.
But..no real reason to think his shot won't be there.
