Who would people want at 46 if we had it. Young or Alexander?

btw what are the league officials doing that they can't approve a trade in 15 minutes?

Willy Hernangomez is a pretty great name, opportunity missed there.

PHI takes drafting BPA to a whole new level.

Yep, Morey did great.

So did the T-Wolves, Nuggets, and Lakers. Towns/Jones kind of speaks for itself, so does Mudiay, but also fills future needs.

And with the Lakers they got fair or better slot value all 3 times, and I think they team built well. Russell can create plenty for himself and others. He's not a very good defender, but Nance and Brown are. And they can both play off the ball, Brown is an excellent catch and shoot shooter, Nance is good with cuts, around the rim, and in the screen roll/pop. Plus can board.

Those are all west teams. When is this gap going to close? It's been like this for almost 20 years.

Would have rather picked Portis or Dekker, then found a way to get Joe Young in the 2nd. All while avoiding the Vasquez fiasco.

It's just BP. None of them are available.

Would've liked Richaun Holmes with our second rounder.

Everything about this is great. Richaun. Bowling Green. The list of teams the pick went through. Everything.

Richaun Holmes

For Philly's next pick i'm going to pick a centers name out of this hat

WiscoKing13 · Post #914 » by **WiscoKing13** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 3:28 am

Whats worse picking 3 PG's in one draft(kahn did trade one) or taking 3 Centers in the top 5 in 3 straight drafts?

This draft overall has been so **** annoying.

Not shutting the **** up about Justise Winslow.

Jalen's hysterically inaccurate NBA comparisons.

Tom Penn being a complete **** (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

Jeff Goodman stumbling over every other word in addition to his weird mouth.

Useless player and family interviews by Spake and Cox.

Stupid 13 year old "fashion expert."

Lol

It is pretty crazy and don't forget they still have PF Saric stashed overseas.

You know a draft night is boring as hell when even realgm only breaks for 10 minutes or so.

M-C-G · Post #919 » by **M-C-G** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 3:35 am

Mason Plumlee just tweeted thanking the brooklyn fans for two great years?

EDIT: Traded for RHJ and Blake

Garbs_7 · Post #920 » by **Garbs_7** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 3:36 am

Mason Plumlee traded. Come and join your brother Mason.

EDIT, going to Portland.
