Lakers just traded away Harrell and instantly drafted replacement Harrell.

Jackson's one of those guys whose box score I'll be monitoring all year.

So far so good guys. Both Bouknight and Jones will be solid additions.

Lakers don't have a pick. They picked for Washington.

My two kids asked me tonight if we're going to have another kid and then asked me why I work so much. I laughed pretty hard.

It's kinda cool feeling like both the Hornets and the Panthers have GMs who know how to draft

I really like Garuba. I hope we didn't make a mistake. The only problem with Garuba is he has a big buyout so he's likely a stash.

Sengun, Wood, Garuba is an interesting frontcourt (with 'interesting' not being a euphemism)

So, the Knicks gave away #19 in a deep draft for a perpetually lottery protected first, then dropped 4 spots from 21 to 25 for a second? Really curious to see who they take at 25.

Those protections cant possibly be right. I mean I hope to God they are lol... but how. Why would the Knicks do that?

As much as I like Sengun, I do believe his transition to the NBA level may be tougher than some. Kai Jones will fit our attacking athletic style, but I don’t expect miracles offensively. Would you say Jones projects similar to Noel?
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

If we can get Sims or Bassey we have finally solidified our Center spot
