No, he's here to stay. Press conference already scheduled and jerseys going up soon online. Already taken a number too.

Makes sense. MCW and Turner would be a train wreck

I still can't get over Anthony Bennett going #1. Not a single person had that pegged. Insane.

Fans need to give Commissioner David Stern standing ovation after he announces 30th pick. He's done so much for the NBA.

Just a weird idea, but seeing how OKC used advanced statistics to see is Westbrook can play point, do you think Henny did the same thing?

Agreed.

When #31 hits, we will all remember the ill-fated Justin Harper deal.

What's worse is we have another year of second round suffering to go.

UGH!

Did Golden State buy the 26th, trade to 29th, then trade again to 30?

I'd be cool with Zo or Kabongo but will they be there at our pick? or do we move up?

Yea if I had a not so popular pick it would have been Porter there.

But would have never guessed Bennett....especially with the recent overweight reports.

Imagine we get smart or one of the Harrison twins next year? We will be exciting to watch!

rcklsscognition · Post #1095 » by **rcklsscognition** » Fri Jun 28, 2013 2:43 am

What exactly do you have to give up to move from 30 to 29? Like 5 grand cash?

Post #1096 » by **Bensational** » Fri Jun 28, 2013 2:43 am

just got back from watching the first half of the draft at a bar.

i think we really missed a big opportunity to trade with Minnesota and land McCollum.

then again, a Bazz + Dieng combo could really surprise, especially on that team.

i can't help but think there's a deal in the works between Portland and someone else, sending CJ there. perhaps Jordan for CJ + Leonard?

It's almost time to say #ThanksalotOtis for trading this year's 2nd for Justin Harper.

Rick Rolled · Post #1098 » by **Rick Rolled** » Fri Jun 28, 2013 2:43 am

There's going to be some good players available in the second round.

I don't like how we put down Harper so much.

Did he not pan out?...Maybe not.....How much of a shot was he even given though?

He wasn't highly touted coming out...we traded up to get him....& IMO failed to give him solid shot.

You will def see him back in the NBA.
