  1. Quote: I should kill you for that clip. Worst. Dance. Ever. still it had to be seen and taken into account when considering Noah
  2. top reason NOT to pick Noah truth be told, I'd be devastated if he was our 3rd pick but delighted if he were our 11th pick (if the 3rd was used on a pg of course) I'd honestly rather draft Brewer, but we already have a surplus of forwards and BK isn't the best GM to trade/draft (why does he still have a job anyway?)
  3. Gasol would be a huge mistake, he has clearly stated he wanted to go to a winning team and can opt out after next year apparently. I don't think I'd want to trade a pick in this insane draft just for a 1yr rental.
  4. Check out the John Rambo trailer, yes, it gets worse then Balboa http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYdVrYpF-iA It's like a preview on a rented b-movie
  5. BNPA, that would be a pg wouldn't it?
  6. JianLian is soft, more like an oversized sf. Another Chad Ford special, as he'll look amazing in workouts but notsomuch in the NBA. Still very enticing as a publicity player, Yao Ming has a great following so YianLian would fill the arena. Brewer the perfect sf but we're set at that position Hibbert a very enticing center prospect, a very likely candidate for the 3rd pick BUT seeing the overall change in play in this league, you'd want a more athletic big PF playing C. You can't get too physical anymore, on O or D. Hibbert would be perfect if we already had a true pg, which we don't. So that's out number 1 priority. So with the 3rd pick I most def go with Conley jr or trade down for Conley jr. With the 11th I'd go with Julian Wright, Noah, Marc Gasol, Splitter or Hawes.
  7. Based on the reviews I thought the movie would have been better, it's not bad though. You can watch it with zero historical background, the settings are accurate but you can enjoy the movie without any prior knowledge of that era. It is with subtitles though, not an english spoken movie.
  8. doubtful due to so-so ratings but it's an ok series. keep an eye on it's page on epguides.com , they're usually up to speed
  9. ditto we need Conley, if that means selecting him with the 3rd pick, so be it. I'd prefer a trade down but since there aren't many quality pg's in the draft, I'd go with Conley jr
  10. Horford, Conley, Hibbert, Batum Horford is just too damn good to pass up, Conley is the pg we need, waiting on the later pick to see if he's still avaialble is a recipe for disaster. Law is not a good fit. Hibbert a good halfcourt center, if that's where we going then he's a good pick Batum, it's BK afterall
  11. Actually micro fracture surgery is a difficult surgery to recover from a 100% but if successful it's as good as "new".
  12. ding ding ding http://www.nba.com/coachfile/marc_iavaroni/?nav=page Marc Iavaroni
  13. 10 items or less - a movie in which Morgan Freeman is playing Morgan Freeman, not bad actually Bruce Willis, well regardless of his lack of enthusiasm, admit it, you'll be going to die hard 4 as well
  14. a) eventhough he does have a point about the parity, I highly doubt the NBA will contract with enough places wanting a team (Las Vegas, St Louis, Anaheim, San Diego and probably OK City if they do go back to NO if it's ever rebuild properly) b) very funny that he mentions 27 teams, which is an uneven number which led to several problems (among others the dividing factors about a team being eastern or western conference) c) if a contraction would happen, the NBA will probably look at type of ownership and avg attendance records. Truth be told, in this scenario atl will be seriously looked at, but can we be faulted for not blindly supporting an inferior product? d) envelopes were done away with due to conspiracy rumors (frozen envelop Ewing). No way that this returns. I would be interesting to redo the odds for the lottery but the same for all will not happen. Perhaps even give very infinite small odds to the playoff teams, wouldn't that be fun? e) shortening the regular season would mean a too big of a revenue miss, not going to happen f) Entertaining-as-Hell Tournament, sounds nice, would be fun, not going to happen. Heck I think his best idea yet was to include a game of h-o-r-s-e in the allstar game but an Entertaining-as-Hell Tournament seems just to damn unlikely (for instance, if you are mathematically eliminated from a top 6 seed, you might as well tank for a better possible lottery odds AND to have fresher legs in the Entertaining-as-Hell Tournament.
  15. a) Brewer should be drafted in the top 5, he's that good b) our plan B should not be to not draft a pg or center, if none available to our liking, TRADE
  16. Quote: My work computer blocks me from that site... What, you don't have one at home? Anyway, picks have to be made before Thursdays game, after which the brackets close.
  17. Brackets are open for making selections. I wonder how many here will go with Texas or Ohio.

  19. Very cool gesture, if I were living nearby I'd definitely go!!!
  20. Fire Woody equals a bigger opportunity at Oden
  21. Uhm, a) Dwight Howard very very very unlikely to ever leave Orlando b) Mayo and Walker both gf's. Eventhough Mayo is a very gifted passer, he isn't your typical pg. Also they are very unlikely to be in the upcoming draft, NBA not buying their loophole explanation of 5th yr HSSR. c) so more likely a PG or C selection in the upcoming draft, like Oden, Noah, Splitter. Eventhough I love Durant he doesn't fit in our roster and it doesn't appear to be a strong draft for pg's.
