Oh... I think that's why GSW were picking in OKC's spot. Nevermind. All these trades are confusing.

Well, he was a McDonald's all american and the center for UConn when they won the national championship. More of a pf for nba though. Maybe a good guy to take a risk on.

Why pass on Jackie Carmichael for this guy if they wanted a PF so bad?

Any chance this guy turns into a rebounding machine?

I don't think we will sign someone like JR Smith...he needs to go to competitive team. Wes Johnson...I don't know...maybe if he will sign for minimum or something.

I imagine we will fill as many positions as possible with rookies or undrafted free agents. No need for this team to sign any high priced free agents. We are obviously going to dump Gortat at some point, probably Scola and Dudley, and perhaps Dragic.

Who do you think will be the future starting SG on this team? Before tonight I could have gave you a plethora of starting 5's that will probably work out just as well as Alex Len. I think SG is one of the most bereft of talent positions in the NBA right now and we let slip a potential allstar at the position for another ho-hum Center. I would have rather sign Gortat to an outrageous contract and signed McLemore if we couldn't trade for someone like Adams. Just super disappointed.

My guess is they like him. He could be a diamond in the rough. He was a stud for UConn as a soph but with Drummond the next year he split time and then transferred and probably just lost a ton of momentum with scouts and stuff.

He might be like a Carl Landry type of player.

As I said before, I look forward to your vomit GIF's. This team is going nowhere fast. Instead of rebuild for 2014 season we are looking at either 2015, or even 2016.

Yes, he was in college on a per minute basis.

The Spurs just got Desean Thomas right after the Suns pick. Watch him turn out to be great for them.
