You seem to know something controversial is coming


When has a draft pick or trade not been controversial?

So yes -- she absolutely does know. As do we all. We are all absolutely certain that there will be either a pick, a trade, or a very surprising venue/broadcast glitch. And any of those three possibilities will cause controversy. :D

Why do you like kalk? I just don’t see it.


He’ll probably be good, if I like them out of the gate it’s not such a good thing lol.

Thiero is a freak athlete and elite defender. Didn't shoot well last year but has good form and career 70% FT shooter. Obviously below average but I'm of the mindset the shooting can come. He's in the 1% of NBA athleticism

It gets a lil messy around these parts during this time. 2nd round has seemed worse from my memory.

My question is: Would Hugo have been there at 32? And if so, would Brad have taken one of the bigs we've been clamoring for at 28. Makes one wonder if he has another curve ball planned.

It is about trying to bring the kid over at the right price, or at all.maybe even stashing for a year. Gonzalez as a second rounder might never make it over here.

I would like to propose that the $180M tax savings Brad Stevens afforded the Celtics with the KP and Jrue trades go to the Celtics RealGM Forum Moderators fund. I can't imagine your "job" being any fun at all.

I'm not understanding which drafts he's supposedly **** up so far? Because his first pick #45 selection Juhann who was a draft and stash isn't good?

There's literally no one at this draft. Why the **** did the NBA split this into two nights.

Great rim protector, doesn't foul much. Fully baked after 5 years at college. Decent, if not great skills. Pretty much plug and play. May not be a stud, but looking like he might be another Kornet. I would be good with that if that was his ceiling. He should be a capable contributor off the bench. Can we expect more? I don't know.

Clearly he was available at 31, which was available. On to The Kulk?
