Any idea about a site where a replay may be available tomorrow? As an Euro who really have to get up early tomorrow I am sad that I won't be able to watch today. :(

You could pay for it...

It's probably a matter of time before they shut down the NBA Streams Discord too.


Nah. Cable tv is an offensively overpriced bull scam.

Absolutely. I went with Youtube TV. it's better priced.

Please don't mention Illegal Streams.
That's against RealGM Rules.

Oh my god. You're so not wrong. I forget is Hubie Brown still on the broadcast? We use to play a drinking game where you took a drink every time he said "Upside" or "Potential" and if he said "Upside Potential" you finish your drink. That helped us deal with the talking heads a lot better.

Lakers have no picks. 90% of the coverage will be "lebron gargle gargle gargle james."


Yup, why don't they just trade Zion Williamson to LA for Mo Wagner and be done with it. :banghead:

I'm sure Youtube will have key parts, or maybe even the whole thing.
There's gotta be some other legit TV channels, also.

My prediction: we trade one pick for a future 1st rounder, with the other two we go safe (Olynyk style)
What I hope for: we trade for the 4 th pick (take Garland )and Hills contract for 14+20...or I would also be happy if we draft 3 guys with highest potential (no undersized bigs and non-shooting guards lol)...

For those without TV access looking to livestream, Youtube TV offers a free trial (usually 7 days or more), so one could take a trial spin, watch the draft on ESPN tonight, and cancel before the trial ends. And totally on the up and up, mods. :nod:

True. That's how I started on Youtube TV.
It's a 14-day Free Trial. -- $40/mo if you keep it past that; with more channels than Cable TV.

With Kyrie, Horford, Morris, and now likely Baynes going, I'm be more of the mind to swing for the fences too. It would have been a different story to bring in a solid role guy (Clarke?) to shore up a contending team, but now it looks like the youth movement is on, so a Garland trade or some other "high upside" picks seem in order here.

But, who knows, there's also a chance that all the cap space is being cleared to bring in significant free agent. Not sure who Danny is looking at as most of the FA's are looking elsewhere. We'll see.

Never been so unexcited for a draft for a long time. This season and Off Season so far has knocked the fun out of me.

Just draft a capable PG so Rozier can **** off and I’ll be happy enough.

50.00 bucks now, was better to get it early I guess. Still hard to justify as I haven't had TV for years. Really nothing on cable that I would watch other than shows that can be streamed elsewhere. Wish youtube had a "hoops junky" package!

The Celtics need to right this ship starting tonight. All over the general board is this "karma is a bitch, Danny!" B.S. yet, the teams fortunes can be corrected with a few good moves. We still have good players, coach, organization, fans, and some assets in the cupboard. The new era starts TONIGHT ladies and gentlemen!

General board is a cess pool and most of those clowns would gladly take Ainge as their GM. They're only gloating because their teams have sucked for some time and they love to spread the misery.

If some current rumors are true and Celtics are interested in trading up for Garland, and also picking Bol, that would be just about the epitome of the "high upside/high risk" draft, IMO.

Probably working out the thumb muscles....gotta be the first to tweet the picks!

I would love a reality series where all you see are Sham, Stein and Woj behind closed doors in their war rooms watching their "retweets and likes" go up while simultaneously watching TV..... Woj dropping F Bombs and throwing a chair when Sham announces Sekou Doumbouya before he does.

NBA DRAFT! IT'S HAPPENING!

It's like watching lemmings drop into the sea. Some narrative gets passed around based on rumor and conjecture, and then gets regurgitated as fact. And I doubt Ainge loses any sleep over his reputation with fans of other teams. He just gets back to work.
