yep. nbadraft.net has wiggins going three. if parker goes on a melo like ncaa tourney run, i think he's going number 1.


I was a pretty big Wiggins fan but I've changed my mind as far as how much he can impact a teams win-loss column compared to the other kids in his class.


yeah, i mean i love the kid, and i love his potential, but he's got some work to do in comparison to parker. a lot of it seems to be because kansas' offense too.


For me it's an intensity thing.. that will and fire at the end of games. I don't see enough of it right now.. I don't think he's that kind of kid.

what do you wanna bet?


Winner gets to write something in the loser's footer for the offseason.


ok but the bet is done when Melo either re-signs with the Knicks or signs somewhere else

deal?


Right - whenever Melo gets his deal done. If he opts in and stays with the Knicks through next year then bets off agreed?

How do you have 1 rebound after a full quarter. Is the stat sheet right?

You kinda figure the last loss the Spurs had was against us, and they were gonna take it out whomever they played next.

iI's literally a layup drill from the little bit I watched.


Because you just can't pull yourself away from watching that hunk of a QB Nick Foles, right? :wink:

But it was a really great rebound. I'd say it was among the top 3 rebounds of all time. More than makes up for it being the only one.

Spurs couldnt miss a shot in the quarter, maybe the Clips could have gotten a couple of their own misses though.

Clips down 35 now.

Because you just can't pull yourself away from watching that hunk of a QB Nick Foles, right? :wink:

:lol:

I'm watching little of both, I definitely enjoyed the Chiefs collapse.

Andy Reid has always been a terrible game clock/end of game manager... he doesn't get plays in quick enough which forces his QB to waste time outs. I watched him do it for 11 years in Philly.

Looking at the play by play it looks like Spurs missed 2 shots in the quarter.

Alright, I changed my mind. They need melo's defense.
