Can't believe he's still on the board. Instant offense.

 

Especially for the Bulls at that pick. Would've been perfect.

Ricky Ledo actually got drafted.

Nobody wants an STD!

I guess there is a reason I'm on the couch and not making picks. Siva? Yikes

Spurs, nice.

Good fit.

Boston better hope that their final sell off works out better than the Bulls one did.

I can. Like I said months ago, he doesn't have a position. He isn't athletic enough to play the 3 and he isn't big enough to play the 4. You jumped all over me after I asked if he would even get drafted after he declared.

 

It's understandable though. Sometimes team loyalty can be a bit blinding.

I think Murphy will definitely make the roster, which leaves us with 11 players. That leaves room for 2 FA's. I'm guessing another big man and a SG/SF type. We seem plenty set at PG with Rose, Hinrich, and Teague.

 

Rose/Hinrich/Teague

Butler/Hinrich/FA

Deng/Snell

Boozer/Gibson/Murphy

Noah/Nazr/FA

Team loyalty my ass. Rock is a bandwagoning, look at my team, they're popular, etc, etc, etc. He thinks he knows everything about every OSU player in history and if you challenge him he'll mock you. Please. He ain't foolin' nobody. Thomas is straight garbage by NBA standards.

No he's just the best scorer in the best conference in the country. His measurements predraft kind of did him in a little bit.

 

Still, drafted, which makes him 7 in a row for Thad. Not too shabby.

That was a weird draft. The guy next to me tells me Anthony Bennett is going to go number one and I laughed, and then boom it happens. I'm bettin any all stars that come out of this one are players we don't expect.

Shurna and Frazier were 1 and 2 in the B1G last year, Jujuan Johnson and Taylor Battle were 1 and 2 the previous years. Leading a college conference, whether it be the best conference in the country or not, doesn't have as much to do with pro potential as you seem to think.

Close to dead eye.

 

39%?

 

He also is horrible at rebounding despite being 6'6

 

And he can do nothing besides spot up and shoot. Not a fan of this pick.

They said he shot 47% on pull-up jumpers, which was best in the country. That's hardly just being a spot-up shooter.

 

He has good length and everyone considers him a good shooter. He should do well for the Bulls.

I watched a few NM highlight videos last night, and he looked pretty slippery getting to the hoop. He creates a lot of shots at weird angles and hits a lot of them

" Despite a quick first step and explosive leaping ability, he’s hesitant to drive ... Contact is not his favorite (2.9 FTA) ... Difficulty handling the rock and creating his own shot against pressure -- scored .59 PPP in ISO opportunities (2.1 TO) ... Reluctant to dribble into his jumper when isolated ... There is substantial room for growth in the mid-range department ... He buys himself free space from the foul line extended by being a long-distance threat, would be well served to use it (flaring/curling off screens and off the bounce) ... Snell needs to play behind a greater sense of urgency rather than letting the action dictate his role."

 

2.9 FTA

Sounds like a guy that has the ability to create his own shot. Think you have to like that.

You read that and thought that?

?!?!

Sounds like a guy who can post up a big man

I covered the draft so hard last night that my head hurts and I couldn't sleep and I had to stay up and pwn n00bs on Madden and now I'm tired and I suck at comprehension.

Huh, apparently Bill Simmons and Doc Rivers got into a little spat during the draft last night

Doc Rivers calling him an idiot without calling him an idiot was the best moment of the draft last night
