The point he's making is that you can't use the "he's a rookie with better players ahead of him" excuse when the better player in front of him is another rook.

Nikola really isn't a rookie though... literally, yes he is, but he's played 5 seasons for Real Madrid.

That said, I have no idea why the bulls wanted Doug when they already had Mirotic.

His 5 seasons of Real Madrid doesn't really mean much in an NBA sense though. It's kind of like saying Rubio wasn't a rookie. There are always growing pains. Mirotic is just head and shoulders better than McDermott.

So glad we dodged those bullets.


the only waste, is the time I'm taking to respond to such a waste of a wasted thread.

Have you seen what Shabazz has done in Minn. year 1 vs. year 2??
Do you not remember JJ's 1st year.

Being that he's made bigot laden statements before I think what he meant to say was "these two unathletic whites..." Nobody who isn't a complete waste of life would make a stupid statement about two rookies, who get almost no minutes and one of which is on a Playoff team having to battle for minutes against Pau, Butler, and now Mirotic.



Yes, I'm a white guy who is bigoted against other white people. That is literally the stupidest thing I've ever seen anyone say on this board.

The real bigots, are many of my fellow Magic fans...who are always clamoring for "the next J.J." on draft day. The same people who were clamoring for Stauskas and McDermott, were also thrilled we took Redick on draft night that year, and will be making a case for the highest ranked white prospects this year as well.

So no, I'm not bigoted. But I wish I could say the same for my fellow Magic fans, who are always begging the Magic to draft talentless white players.

By the way, McDermott and Stauksas are both have very low field goal percentages. They're not even good at the one thing they were supposed to be good at on draft night, shooting.

McDermott ans Stauskas will forever be just role/bench players....can't run, jump, rebound, defend, soft, lack toughness.

He was the BPA and wanted to stock pile trade assets in a potential sign and trade deal for Melo
