Especially when you can't remember who you put into the Hall of Fame last night...

 

Huh? Another Paul George crack? I already said i'm an idiot and he sucks. What the hell does 1988 have to do with the incompetence of the current Bulls FO?

With you on this. Different regimes entirely.

 

Also, can someone link me to the latest LeBron flop?

I'll use my words. My favorite was a lebron drive where west cut over, got 90% ball on an attempted block and that was the only contact, and tried to then hold lebron up after contact. lebron still flung out like he had been shot.

Well Orlando is probably going to end up with Dante Exum now, and that makes me happy. An Exum-Oladipo backcourt would be pretty fun to watch for the next 5-10 years.

 

Unless Hennigan is still giddy over Marcus Smart, with Noah Vonleh being the wild-card after the combine results he had.

So Sacramento is picking 8th? drat. Not a real obvious chance that'll knock them out of the lottery next year.

They're looking to trade that pick, and Charlotte potentially also at #9.

 

Arron Affalo would make some sense, for Charlotte especially.

 

If anything, Sacramento really needs to find a defensive frontcourt piece to put next to DeMarcus Cousins. I almost see em where Portland was a season ago, Portland desperately needed a defensive big to put next to Aldridge, and they got Robin Lopez. Wonder if the Kings would look at Varejao maybe (doubt he's worth the 8th pick though).

 

That all being said, I don't see the Kings having any chance of making the playoffs in the West next season.

They don't have to make the playoffs. They just need to pick between 11-14. If the Kings pick between 11-30 in the 2015, 2016, or 2017 draft, the Bulls get that pick. If they have top 10 picks for the next 3 seasons then the Bulls get Sacramento's 2nd rounder in 2017. Also from the Deng trade, the Bulls get to switch draft positions with the Cavs next year if the Cavs fall out of the lottery. Bulls also received Portland's 2nd rounder the next 2 seasons in the deal.

 

If the Bulls keep these pick, this is what we need to root for: Cleveland becomes the 8th seed in the East for next season and Sacramento falls into the 11th pick in the draft. In this scenario, the Bulls would choose #11 and #15 in 2015 Draft while giving their #1 pick to Cleveland. Hope this makes sense, haha.

Don't the Kings just have to finish outside of the top 12? What are the ramifications for that pick?

It's top-10 protected after this year for several years. The Kings lose it to us if they get the 11th or later pick the next couple seasons.

I've been getting really confused now that Charlotte is the Hornets again. I was about to write a long post about how much better New Orleans would be with 2 lottery picks and Noel, but then realized they are the pelicans, and this went to the bob cats...and it's like playing madden 5 years into a franchise where no team is in same city and all names have changed.

No kidding, the Los Angeles All-Stars being in the AFC South was weird enough, but then the Los Angeles Aftershocks ended up in the AFC North!

Paul George has been diagnosed with a concussion and will begin the NBA-mandated protocol before he can return to the court.

He admitted he blacked out in the fourth quarter after Dwyane Wade kneed him in the back of the head.

And I thought the long break would help the heat out most.

So how far do you think packaging 16 and 19 can get you? 11? 12?

Package that s*** with everything else for one of Love or Melo or watch your fanbase finally revolt.

 

Oh wait, there's idiots in this city.

 

Nevermind. Draft all the role players and sign all the white guys (not named Love).
