I’ve seen Grant Hill comps
That works for me

Because they're the Grizzlies, I'm kind of assuming they have cap space to eat those two contracts, plus, Bledsoe and Adams have their uses in a rotation. Taking them on to move up seven spots seems like a pretty good swap.

Jesus ****ing Christ. But I'd be OK if Russ got a ring. He deserves one more than that total sellout KD.

Then Russ happened

Then Russ happened

If Russ put his efforts towards what the Lakers really need from a PG, he could be awesome as could the Lakers (of course when he played the W's, they're so far in his head its over).

Hield fits better on the team than Westbrook - Career 40 percent shooter from 3-point range, and you get plenty of wide open looks with LeBron and Davis on the floor.

I don't think Westbrook fits particularly well if LeBron and Davis are healthy. Every shot he takes is probably taking away a shot from them, and Westbrook isn't an especially good defensive player now. He's useful if LeBron or Davis are hurt, and you need a guy to eat a massive amount of minutes while producing OK.

If the trade goes through the Lakers have:

LeBron
AD
Russ
Marc Gasol
Alphonso McKinnie

And that's it. That's the full roster. And no money left.

Those three better be ****ing AMAZING.

This Laker following thinks for that team, Heild > Russ. The last thing the Lakers need to do is get older.

I'd agree if I thought Hield was very good. I'm not on the bandwagon there.

The Pistons and Rockets last drafted 1-2 in 1970
Two Hall of Famers
Bob Lanier and Rudy T

I'll first guess it but Scottie Barnes at 4 seems like bustarooni all over it

 

[DanielSimpsonDay]

Kendrick Perkins

why

 

[Scout]

Kendrick Perkins

why

He’s rough, but shows potential.

Jefferson speaks whiter than a Rockefeller family gathering.

 

[DanielSimpsonDay]

God bless you, Corey Kispert.

“He takes hard coaching well.”

He changed high schools three times and quit his college team after 13 games, but you do you.

Woj having to tweet out undrafted free agent signings all night to keep the information providing agents happy is a great tradition.

I don’t know how to react to the Cavs not drafting a 6-2 guard.
