I rather not have to see Aaron Gray play the majority of the minutes at center.

Pretty sure Joakim Noah just said f u to every single ref on the floor while pointing emphatically as he got ejected. I need a video of that.

Cousins and Dunleavy exchanging cheap shots is actually pretty hilarious. When Cousins pointed then turned to cover his mouth

Derrick williams

Fun game, haven't seen a game that chippy in a long time.

If Cousins ever did what Noah ever did, people would be crucifying him. What a clown.

So does finishing in no man's land, especially given a once in a decade draft. It's subjective

I realize this is not the forum to continue this discussion, but TANKING SUX! How is tanking better than seeing our team improve? To get a better draft position? There are no 'saviors' in this draft. There are no Lebrons and there are no Kobes this year. There are no clear franchise changing players. There are likely Durants, but these players don't stand out, ad you cannot predict which one that is going to be. Ask Portland if they would've drafted Greg Oden first if they knew what they know now. Even if Oden never had health problems, he doubtfully would of had as much of an impact on the league as Durant.

Even if we have a clear idea of who we would like to draft to turn this team around, it is still a crap shoot based on how the ping-pong ball bounces.

This team has been relying on the tank strategy for over a decade and it has failed to produce. I want this team to succeed and the only true measure of success is if our team actually succeeds. Because of this, winning >>>> tanking.

I could go on, but the spittle from my rant is making my keyboard sticky.

Here's one thing that isn't. Having two legit pieces to build around. Time to start building momentum and some confidence, you won't find the other filler talent in the top part of the draft most likely anyway and if you take one too high you just get blasted. Plus you want vets, not rookies unless they are the most rare variety of ready. This team needs the problem areas solved around Cousins, Gay, and IT, not more talent to develop. There are some nice pieces in the draft this year but it's a long shot that you get the best player anyway, and another long shot that this team has any stars worth tanking for in it to begin with.

Exactly, if they were building around inferior talent it would be one thing, but they have the best big in the league right now to build around and might have gotten him a great wing companion to boot. Do it! Win! Build a team around them!
