Re: 2017 NBA Draft Day Thread
I'm torn between watching the vertical coverage or ESPN. I kinda wish the vertical draft was on TV, so I could have my laptop screen was free.

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Day Thread
Damn, didn't realize NBATV is also airing the draft. 3 different options for coverage. [Brain explodes]
Edit: No way am I watching Kenny Smith yell at the TV for 4 hours. So, back to two options.

I'm going to endure the NBATV coverage. It's the only TV option I have.

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Day Thread
french Frank has another game tomorrow in France and is planning on flying back after draft to play. That has to be a first.

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Day Thread
Vertical talking about french Frank and its like the exact need for the Hornets. Good defender, PG/SG combo guard with good playmaking and a smooth shot.
Wonder why Cho is going to pass him up for Mitchell in about 45 minutes
