19 years old, 6'9" with a 7'3.25" wingspan and a 9'1" standing reach.
Ridiculously athletic. Can contribute on defense immediately.
Losing Plumlee sucks but I'm going to give this kid a chance.

I can't even overhype one of our second rounders this year. Tokoto is getting stashed in China forever. Okafor will get triple teamed as team will just force our scrubs to hit shots.
fuck all this

By DY_nasty Go To PostI got more faith in PJ Hairston turning into fuckless klay than I do in Winslow being anything other than a more swole Dahntay Jones.
But you hate klay lol. At worst you get MKG lite next to MKG, at best he could be Jimmy Butler.
I think you already know what worst case Frank gets you, MKG in purple and gold for Jordan Hill that's what.

breh
remember worst case shelden williams? i'll eat crow if wrong
Posting and Toasting - the only knicks blog worth a damn - seems to like the Porzingis pick. With one dude even amazed that the Knicks would be competent enough to draft someone with an eye for 5 years down the road instead of the usual only thinking of immediacy.
I can't tell if they're all just lying to themselves.

And McCullough has the Bosh neck.
I can't lie. I'm pretty stoked to see a starting lineup of Collison/McLemore/Gay/Cousins/Cauley-Stein in action. Probably the best starting lineup we've had since the Bibby/C-Webb/Vlade days.
Just need to resign Casspi, tell Derrick Williams to enjoy the rest of his career in China, and pursue a decent backup big like Kevin Seraphin, Jonas Jerebko, or Aron Baynes or maybe another decent wing and call it good.
PG - Collison/McCallum
SG - McLemore/Stauskas
SF - Gay/Gasspi
PF - DMC/Landry
C - WCS/JT
35-40 win season at the very least assuming minimal injuries and FO fuckery.

yeah, seriously dont watch DX weakness portions of a player you like.
just watched upshaw's weaknesses and he looks like a high school JV reject,
like the worst player i've ever seen. lol

Yep, that one was the one where I couldn't believe he was even a lottery pick. I think I had some rant about it before we moved here from the old place
By D'Moris Russell Go To PostZingis is such a risky pick.2 years away from being 2 years away breh
phil da zen masta
By pilonv1 Go To PostYep, that one was the one where I couldn't believe he was even a lottery pick. I think I had some rant about it before we moved here from the old placecouldn't give 2 shits about defense, thinks he's a shooting guard, only has a right hand, undersized, what could possibly go wrong?
chris grant better not get a job in this league ever again

you have maybe a 3 year window to show improve in the NBA
I'm not even gonna trip on Frank Kaminsky anymore. The Hornets aren't worth raising my blood pressure
Cat can step out and make a three and Tebow knows, Charlotte needs that.
I wish him the best of luck and hope that the boring crowds don't boo him too much starting out.

if mitch were smart he'd send nance to the d-league immediately, let him come back next year when kobe gone
beyond disrespectful

So how did none of these agents think to tell their kids to go back through their twitter timeline and delete anything that mentioned an NBA team/player?
Oh man, I just figured Larry Nance talked trash on Kobe's "clutchness" or some bullshit like that... Wow. And they still drafted him after that? Trial by fire, goddamn. Lol.

he called kobe a rapist
By Dark PhaZe Go To Posthe called kobe a rapistI know, that's what I was referring to. That's why I'm so shocked they took him.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Posthe called kobe a rapistI mean, we've had this discussion on here before and didn't we agree he was a rapist?
Reilo feels very strongly about it.

He's not.
going over the draft and I just noticed the Nyets traded Plumlee for Steve blake and an off the bench defender.....
The misery of others is making me feel a lot better today than I did yesterday

By thekad Go To PostSo is it possible Budenholzer has no clue what he's doing?That was a really, really bad trade.
I'm at peace with the Tyus Jones trade. Some of his advanced numbers (like ppp in the pick and roll, his free throw rate) are pretty good. Just as long as Flip doesn't envision him replacing Pretty Ricky.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Posthe called kobe a rapist
he's the sacrificial lamb to keep Kobe from mind fucking Russell. Kobe is going to be trying to kill Lance so much he'll probably be to tired to torture russell
All of this talk about kobe gonna try to kill the rooks made me disappointed Hezonja never in play for Lakers.. shit gonna goes A Serbian Film real quick.
By diehard Go To Postdidn't you used to be a "Lakers fan" ?
Still a Laker Fan. But we got D'angello Russell. There is nothing to be said there, we got the 2nd and maybe the 1st best player in the draft. I trust West and Kupchak.
I'm just shocked on Porzingis because I specifically said I would troll forever any clown shoes organization that drafted Porzingis ahead of Mario, and fucking Phil did that shit.
Also, be real. If after multiple attempts to coach the Jazz, Stockton took a job coaching or managing the Hornets, you'd give a fuck.
Charlotte has had the worst off-season thus far and the Wolves the best imo.
Obviously the Lakers are in a great position as well.

By Dark PhaZe Go To PostCharlotte has had the worst off-season thus far and the Wolves the best imo.Flip took the best player and then addressed a real need last night by getting a backup point. I continue to maintain that he's a pretty good GM, Payne trade aside. Just sign Bjelica to like 3/18 and it's a home run of an offseason.

Maybe one of the best pure draft rebuilds I've witnessed in a while, maybe since the Blazers after Roy, Aldridge and Oden. Pity how that one turned out obviously, but I'm extremely impressed with Flip atm.
Synergy Sports Tech @SynergySST 15h15 hours ago
Mario Hezonja made 43% of his catch and shoot jumpers, 40% of his pull ups, and 62% finishing at rim this season. Complete package as scorer
ahhh yisss
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostCharlotte has had the worst off-season thus far and the Wolves the best imo.WTF did The Wizards do?

By Red Blaster Go To Postahhh yisss
He could be the 2nd best player of this draft class next year, or 5 years from now and I wouldn't be surprised.
This mistake is going to haunt Phil
Fucking Hinkie though. Can't believe he took Okafor and then a million centers afterwards. Okafor should have ended up in NY
I find it hilarious how much Laker nation is optimistic because they had a good Draft. You are YEARS, dare I even say decades from contending for a championship. You're in the West, not the shitty East.
