i'm really not a fan of moving up in this draft unless it's for like the clippers pick + 17. i don't think it's strong enough to justify.

Okafor sounds like a big dummy. Pretty sure he had just stuffed his mouth full of taco dip as they began the interview on NBA TV.

If they move up it's for a guy they haven't worked out, right?

Also, Chris McCollum from Portland was on the NBA network on XM radio...holy ****, what a smart kid, he is going to be an excellent analyst once his playing career was done. Great to listen to, fantastic insight and sounded mature way beyond his years considering he is only 23.

Space Jam is playing on VH1 at 7pm. So much for watching the draft.

Anyone else listening the Bucks pre-draft stuff: http://www.nba.com/bucks/draft/2015

I just tuned in a few minutes ago and heard McKinney talking about how Kidd has been adding his astute observations to their planning conversations.

Kidd and McKinney make it sound like we will either stash a player with our 2nd round pick or sell the pick.

Because we're going to be making so many picks in the 1st rd. We might need the roster space instead of using it with that 2nd.

Brian Windhorst makes me want to cry, because I feel like I am going to look just like him in 15 years.
