I think I want to stay away from this thread 30 min leading up to our pick. I have a feeling some twitter tweet thing will be shown, telling us our pick. I'd rather be surprised, or at least told by Andy Katz a min before the pick. Maybe I should just have it on mute or flip to it right when we pick.
No way to know who the pick is since we won't know what Charlotte will do with Cleveland's offer on the table. I think you are safe being here.Quote:

Awesome debates we've had here for the last few weeks. I'm praying to the basketball Gods that the Wiz don't mess this up.
MKG, Barnes, or Beal I don't even care. I just want however comes to perform like the third pick.
Craig Sager and his suits. Burn his entire wardrobe please.
Does the draft start at 7:30 or 8?
Aren't there questions about his desire to be good/great and questions about him seemingly disappearing in big games?Quote:

Newsflash, Mr. Awesome is a piece of ****. Thanks for absolutely wasting my extra ticket you fake ****ing piece of ****.
I'm not convinced it's a desire issue so much as it's a "doesn't know how to play the game yet" issue. Look at all the points in his favor and they're derived from instinct and natural ability--finishing, shotblocking, offensive rebounding. Then look at his weaknesses and they are all from inexperience and lack of awareness--defensive rebounding, lack of go to offensive moves, passing/decision making.Quote:

Details later but for now try to enjoy the evening.Quote:
