NBA Draft

Where everyone discusses football, and two dorks try to pretend people actually like the NBA and spam what should be in PMs.

Sweet justice.

I was really hoping Memphis, Boston, and Milwaukee wouldn't be in the top 3 because of their complete tank job.

Karma strikes again.

People think this puts the conspiracy theories to rest, but I think a case could be made for Stern making it clear tanking will not be tolerated. Either that or karma had it's way with this one.

I couldn't be happier for Boston fans. I hate just about every single one of them.

I can just imagine Bill Simmons' head imploding when Boston got called out with the #5 pick. His next column about it should be HIGHLY entertaining.

Most Boston fans don't care about the Celtics. Basketball is dead.

Basketball has long since not been a team sport.

I was looking for it today. I figured he would have already had a HUGE write up on them. Since it is not posted yet, i have an idea it will be an amazing column now :rofl:

If that were true then Kobe would win the finals every year.

Many Boston fans care about the Celtics. The team has been trash for a long time, and it's painful to watch, but I don't think that stops real MA sports fans from caring about the C's. I don't think the majority of the fans are bandwagoners. I would hope not anyway.

Being upset at #5 pick when you never know who will really turn out to be good doesn't make much sense to me. Add to that the tank job that the three 'worst' teams did and they didn't deserve to get the top two picks.

The reason the east struggles is because of management, not because of draft picks.

The east has been getting great draft picks since I've been following basketball but some teams trade them away for Sebastian Telfair.

I've actually started to care about the Blazers more now that one isn't getting arrested every other week for having more drugs then the pimp who's hooker they are with.

the blazers have really turned the franchise around in 2 years, they totally fleeced the celtics at the draft last year.

they could actually be pretty good, especially if the jack/rodriguez tandem works well. They do have a handful of big contracts they would probably unload if they could, but most teams have at least one of those anyways

Debatably Horford, but just about everyone has him ahead of Noah.
