This will go to a game 7.

The NAACP is not going to give Sterling his second lifetime achievement award. Wait, he already has one? "For the most part, [sterling] has been very, very kind to the minority youth community," the chapter's president Leon Jenkins explained to the Los Angeles Times at the time." You can get two lifetime achievement awards for being "for the most part very kind"? http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/nba/story/_/id/10847821/naacp-no-longer-giving-award-donald-sterling-los-angeles-clippers-owner

I don't see that happening, but if it does, it would be difficult to see us losing a game 7 at home after coming back from 3-1.

Why is this stuff going here and not in the NBA thread?

No NBA playoffs thread

[Sammy Sofa]

Or, for [expletive]'s sake; there's an active general NBA thread. Nobody is going to get banned because it wasn't renamed.

It was difficult to see the Bulls winning at Brooklyn last year.

There isn't an NBA Draft thread...

 

@DraftExpress: This is shaping up as one of the most loaded drafts I can ever recall from an international perspective, at least from a quantity standpoint

 

@DraftExpress: It wouldn't surprise me at all if the overwhelming majority of the 2014 draft second round ends up being international draft and stash picks

[davell]

I've kind of expected one of our 2 1sts would be a stash guy. I'm in favor of it, if it turns out we get our pick of the entire group, if its as strong as mentioned

[WrigleyField 22]

We also have some future seconds now we can trade if we want like we did with Asik.

Can you deconstruct that sentence for me?

[Derwood]

With that many international prospects, a crap ton of these guys leaving school early are going to go undrafted

[davell]

I guess these are the picks we have currently? I'm seeing Bobcats pick 16. The right to trade 1sts with Cleveland next year, but it's top 14 protected. We get a Kings 1st that's top 12 protected thru 2017, then it turns into a 2nd rounder(unless its 56-60?). Plus we have 2015 and 2016 2nds from Portland. If any of that can turn into a Mirotic type, I'd be thrilled.

We have some additional second rounders (from Portland via the Deng trade) we can use to trade up from our current second round spot, similar to the move we made to get Asik, in which we traded our second rounder and two future second rounders.

Chris Paul. I heard he might be looking for, shall we say, a change of scenery.

[Guest]

Checking out Draft Express' mock draft, they have 6 international guys in the first round (3 lottery picks) and 7 in the second round. They have a few guys going around the Bulls' picks.

This team looks pretty done.

[SpongeWorthy]

oy.

[UMFan83]

Thibs is going to ride his regular season rotations to the bloody end isn't he?

[USSoccer]

This is what happens when teams with more talent play just as hard as you do.

This is what happens when teams with more talent play just as hard as you do.

 

And the coach refuses to alter his rotations to reflect the opponent and game situation

[SpongeWorthy]

Can't wait to strike out on any player that would move the needle this off-season and all the grumbling between the FO and Thibs

This is like the mcdonalds all American game crowd. A little applause on a made basket and that's it.
