Adam Everett, Anyone?

NBA Draft Report: Kel'el Ware Of Indiana

Kel'el Ware has stretch center potential, while also possessing a floor as a playable rim-runner, which says a lot about him as a prospect.

The Wolves Owned All 4,700 Basketball Squares

by John Wilmes

Minnesota's defensive effort in Game 2 was a transformative sight. In what appeared to be an effort to become one with their team name, they swarmed, smashed, hounded, snarled, took, and destroyed for 24 straight minutes to start the game. Not an inch of the court was safe.

NBA Draft Report: Devin Carter Of Providence

by Zachary Cohen

Devin Carter won't be a star, but he could certainly be a starter or high end rotation player with his ability on both ends of the floor and do all the little things.

Joel Embiid Is Already Legend

by John Wilmes

Joel Embiid carries the weight of expectations differently than others. As his fanbase and national media have constructed stories that have him as the potential messiah in a decade-long process of experimental team-building, coupled with the unusual rabidity of Philadelphia sports fans, he has accepted this role sincerely.

Apparently the Astros have non-tendered him:

I'd sure rather have Everett than Isturis. If you are going to have a shortstop who is a terrible hitter, might as well have the one who is the major league's best fielder.

If the Cardinals can get him for a small enough contract, I hope they sign him up. Let him and Cesar battle it out for the starting spot in Spring Training. The team could eat Cesar's contract without too much indigestion after Everett wins the competition.

Would love to have the best fielding SS in the game, but I just don't see it happening. Another reason to hate the Cesar signing though.

Looks like the Twins moved fast and got him already. I'm going to pissed if they got him for less than 3M.

Well that kinda sucks, because Everett is better than Izturis and signed for the same money.

But, no biggie. Everett or Izturis, either way the Cardinals were just looking for a one-year stop-gap until they can find a shortstop who is actually good.
