I think Cho has done a good job drafting since he got here

Kemba
Biz
MKG
Taylor
Zeller

Kemba was a great pick, Biz is getting better and has tons of potential same for MKG, Jeff is a good 3&D player and Zeller is solid and has a great IQ already

gonna have to figure out who they're gonna keep soon, MKG,Biz and Kemba will be FA's soon

Kemba is a must, i'd resign MKG for 2yrs and 8mill, Biz 2yrs and 6mill just to see how they develop (2nd years are team options)

Charlotte could only wish that they could offer such deals to Biyombo or MKG at the end of their rookie contracts, and if that's the market for them then they must bust to avoid any other team from making run at them, so that's more so a bad thing

Lol. They would have to be bust beyond epic proportions to get that small of an offer.

The Kings just have nobody at SF so they're in experimentation mode. They did the same thing with Tyreke, just boils down to not having to play Travis Outlaw as much as possible.

If the Kings lucked up and grabbed Wiggins to slide in at SF that team would be devastating from an athletic stand point.

I could see Biz getting that little if he doesn't make a huge stride. MKG, no way. He'd have to regress significantly to get that little. Plus, he's nearly 3 years from being a FA. Way way way too early.

Will Augustin be a thorn in the Bobcats side in his return tonight with the Raptors?

I guess you can say that the Knicks caught a break on this one. I thought it was possibly torn ACL that would've put him out for the season. I bet Chandler might want to think twice about trying to trip a player driving to the basket again

I heard that the Knicks might put a bounty on Kemba on Friday night's game for injuring Chandler. They are very salty about this injury.

Only if we're trying to out tank the Raptors.

anthony bennett still waiting for his 1st career NBA FG. 0-15 in 4 games to start the year. i've watched him quite a bit, he's playing anywhere from 10-15 minutes a night and looking very winded as a result of those minutes. he'll have a burst of energy here and there grabbing a board and attempting to run the floor, but his energy level is critically low right now. i voiced my concerns about him in draft season, but even i know he's better than this. i'm just wondering how long it's going to take him to get in passable NBA shape. i know he's coming off surgery, but if this is something like the cavs should expect with him rounding into shape to start the season, then he's in deep, deep trouble.

Not to mention he got owned on the defensive end.

On the flip side, Vucevic had 30 and 21. Coincidence?

76ers lost a hidden gem in Vucevic when they traded him
