[gscool89]

The Lakers are going to get Wiggins out of this season, aren't they?

They are going to end up with a top 5 pick and probably whoever they take is gonna end up being the best guy in the draft (whether it's wiggins, parker, smart, randle, exum, etc.).

 

The other thing is if/when they blow it up they have some pieces that they could trade and end up with another mid-high first/early 2nd round pick (in this loaded draft) if they decided to trade a combination of Pau, Hill, Kaman, Meeks.

Xavier Henry is tweeting ayn rand quotes

[Formerly Snayke]

Holy crap, that's Xavier Henry's best game since...his first game as a Jayhawk?

[ChiCubsFan]

The Cavs are a fun team to watch. Really hope LeBron doesn't go back there.

Couple questions:

The Raptors are really good right?

They have Tyler Hansborough, so.....

Just had Sweet 16 flashbacks. Carter-Williams dominating again.

Their GM has got to be livid.

I saw they were down 23-2 and wondered what the hell was going on. Then I saw they'd cut the deficit to 6 midway through the second quarter and figured Miami would end up winning by 20. Pretty nice fourth quarter collapse.

Pacers 2-0, woot woot! \:D/

Why is Carter-Williams starting at point guard when they have Tony Wroten? Kwame Brown plays zero minutes? Where's Tom Coverdale?

Only guess is Carter-Williams was this new FO's first round pick this year, Wroten was part of the old regime. So obviously they like CW and they know they are going to be awful (regardless of what happened last night) so they probably want to see what "their guy" can do given a bigger role. Also, Wroten played 23 min, so it's not like he's wasting at the end of the bench.

pretty sure Wroten was acquired by trade... and also that Snayke was being sarcastic about their tanking

The Sixers really had a great draft. I really like Carter-Williams and think he went too low. He was a top-five pick for me.

Lance Stephenson and Paul George both look to be making significant jumps yet again, the latter into superstardom.

 

For a fun stat, Hibbert already has 12 blocks in only 49 mins played.

Miami doesn't die easy.

 

Does Tim Duncan ever play before January?

[imb]

I have this horrible feeling that the Thunder drafted

 

Kevin Durant (no. 2 player in the league)

Westbrook (top 3-5 PG in the league)

Ibaka (great jumpshooter, best shot blocker in the league)

James Harden (Arguably the best SG in the league, definitely top 2)

 

in a three-year span and are only going to get a 3-year championship window out of that group. If they're not going to break into the tax, Durant and Westbrook are almost certain to leave.

[SouthSideRyan]

Has a team ever gone 0-82?

Of course the Sixers are 3-0 with wins over Miami and Chicago. Because that makes total sense.
