I don't know. Outside the spelling, this joke had comfortably middle class written all over it... :dontknow:


Personally, I think I should get a government grant for even knowing who Wilson Phillips was.

I really just wanted to use this gif. RIP Chris Farley.

Tatum is going to be a really solid all-star caliber player IMO.

Jabari can't guard Yi's chair, so that's not a surprise :P

I don't doubt it. I think Tatum is much more skilled offensively than anyone in this draft (and more skilled that 'Bari was coming out).

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

Just saw this note on the ringer draft guide, yeah, I'd want to know much more about that incident


In 2014, Dotson was dismissed from the Oregon basketball team after he was accused of sexual assault. Charges were dropped because of a lack of evidence


You can find the entire police report online. It is terrible.


Christ. It was indeed.

I think we draft Kidd's big pg Nkilitina, if he falls, or make the compromise and draft an Excel not Schwartz client. There's only one Schwartz client, he has two torn acl's, and plays the position of the guy we just drafted. It'd also be too obvious with the backlash. Big board of: 1. Nkilitina, 2. Leaf or White, 3. White or Leaf. Frankly, I'd be fine with all those individually, even though it would still concern me somewhat when it comes to the implication.

We only got our figurehead gm a few days ago, and he doesn't have his vet to pair with him yet. So I don't foresee a trade. We K.I.S.S.

There's something weird with Tatum's shot, mechanics or timing, he needs to work on that. If he can take his shooting to the next level and utilise his passing more he will be an all star.

I know we're looking at the Kings and Vlade here but how many centers do you guys think they need?

We're literally a playoff team that had about 7 C's on the roster last year. That should sell it to him.

More C's = playoffs

I know but I couldn't think of any players that the Bucks should give up and that the Kings would want that :dontknow:

Tatum has some decent ISO moves that's about it. Dosent really hold a candle to a guy like Markelle offensively

Been watching this draft preview show on NBATV. It's cool and all, but I wish they'd talk about more guys than the top 5 or so. It is a 2 hour show.

You can get that kind of quantity player at 17. You don't need to use your 2nd best player last season to trade up to get it. Just accept what comes to you. But the only one of those three I'd draft if they fell is Mitchell. You're moving up, it should be for quality that's not available at 17, like Nkilitina, DS Jr., or the other Collins.
