Can't believe Stokes dropped into the 2nd round. Is there something i'm missing with this guy? He would of been perfect for the Clippers.

Oh how James Mcadoo has fallen. Last year if he came out was projected a lottery pick.

Jordan McRae, that guy looks like a good Spurs spark plug. You guys basically gifted them a lottery picks in Anderson and McRae doesn't look like a joke for #58

no clue if he'll ever make an impact in this league, but after getting to watch his whole career, the dudes blossomed into a nice player. he's arguably a top 5 athlete in this draft. can throw down some insane dunks

Masai sounds super depressed that he missed out on his first guy (likely Ennis). He seems really angry that they weren't allowed to pick him, almost as if someone is getting fired.

Burton was pretty much a borderline 1st by many mocks a couple of months ago. Funny how things can change. Very unexpected for me.

My first impression is:
1. Philadelphia most likely the best year-by-year drafting & trading, amazing selection
2. 29 other teams allowed San Antonio to get 2 NBA playtime ready prospects without them paying extra
3. Denver outplay, they got 2 11th projected picks for the price of 1
4. Zach LaVine's "relief"
5. LeBron always gets what he wants
6. I really have no idea who's gonna be who by february 2015

I gotta say, it's exciting to me that we added Inglis and a guy in O'Bryant who could potentially contribute for us if we move some of our other big men, and still have a chance at guys like Deonte Burton, Artem Klimenko, Bryce Cotton, and Jabari Brown.

As I said on the GB:
If you're running an NBA franchise in one of the wealthiest regions of the country, and you have to sell off basketball assets to make ends meet, you're not doing it right.
