NBA PERMANENT Off Season Thread
 

Congrats to Dirk and J Terry. Gonna be a long summer if the lockout holds

Thanks for your take

Pretty sure the Pacers will trade for Josh Smith

Also draft either Jimmer or Marshon Brooks

Lot of Heat hating...the Media is fueling one hell of a monster by all of the prodding. Wouldn't be surprised if Miami went 80-2 next year!

Kevin Love for Gasol trade rumor around here...not straight up but I guess Portland would be involved somehow.

:rofl: I think David Kahn is stupid, but not even he is THAT stupid.

Lakers fans are delusional. ""Orlando and Minnesota are going to trade us their best players. Why? Cause we're the Lakers, that's why!"

Looks like The Kings are either going to draft Kemba Walker or Brandon Knight. Neither one of those guys are likely to set the world on fire right off the bat or anything but both gentlemen are fairly solid.

Kemba Walker is the only lad in in UConn history to have his number retired while still an active student. What a studly addition he'd be.

And fuck the Lakers. I hate how they feel that they're entitled to all of this talent simply because they're the Lakers. When Dwight became free, Lakers fans just assumed that they were entitled to him. I hope Kahn (as much of a son of a bitch as he is) comes to his senses and doesn't trade Kevin Love. At least not to the fucking Lakers.

I honestly believe if the Bulls can find themselves a solid 2/3 guy who can shoot jumpers off of kickouts and average about 15 a game they'll be damn near unstoppable.

I believe honestly that the Heat HAD to win this year because everyone else knows what it'll take to stop them now and can acquire it during the offseason(with no lockout happening of course).

I agree haha even some of the local radio guys are like " Who will Miami acquire to compete against the Lakers in the finals next year" freaking idiots

With the potential of Paul George being a superstar, I would trade Granger for Love easily.

Shh, don't give him credit, he'll hear you and do something beyond dumb.....er than normal

If Jimmer Fredette isn't a member of my Utah Jazz I'll be shocked. He's white and he's mormon. Taylor made for this team.

If they don't take him at #3, then most likely they could do a trade with the Knicks since the Knicks really want him as their pick and he wants to play in New York more than Utah according to the ESPN interview today.

I think only Sacramento has shown interest in picking him at #7 before the Jazz pick again at #12 and the Knicks at #17.

Meanwhile I have little confidence in Ainge doing anything good in the draft after last few years he's drafted players and just let them go or trade them before they even had a year with the team. I think only 1 player post-2007 Draft managed to stay on the team (not counting Jeff Greene) even though the team really needs the youth and depth.

Jimmer is going to be a monumental waste of a pick.

I am hoping the kings take kemba. I think he an Tyreke can mae an elite back court for years.

Jazz are gonna take Knight at 3 and hopefully Singleton drops to 12.

Lamar Odom for Andre Iguodala?

John wall for Ron Artest

<font color=goldenrod>Hearing the echo of the announcers makes me think they are being played over the louspeaker. And they are all like "lol there are no superstars in thsi draft". Would be hilarious if the players can hear them.</font>

he watches the nba draft

If the wizards take kyle singler i'm gonna smacka bitch

Williams would have been the better pick at #1 than Irving for the Cavs considering the money they are spending for the #1 pick and Williams has a better college resume to work with than Irving's 10 games.

<font color=goldenrod>LOL the diabetes commercial labeled Chris Dudley as an "NBA Legend"</font>

Jazz and Knicks lost out on Jimmer Fredette as the Kings (picked by the Bucks) took him at #10.

Knicks really wanted him with him being either #1 or #2 on their draft chart. They were rumored to be planning a trade with the Jazz had the Kings not taken him.

King Kemba goes to the Bobcats I see. Talk about Deja Vu for Uconn all over again.

I really, REALLY hope he doesn't turn out to be Emeka Okafor and fall off the face of the planet.

lmao @ Knicks pick reaction

Is Isiah Thomas making those picks again?

<font color=goldenrod>Who the fuck is Iman Shumpert? Walsh is sticking it to the Knicks on the way out.</font>

Chris Singleton :'(

<font color=goldenrod>The Rockets just drafted a European player who won't come to the NBA for another 4 years. The fuck?</font>

<font color=goldenrod>That was posted as soon as the Knicks picked. He mad.</font>

Fucking Utah. Kanter. Just wonderful. This team has no guards and can't play defense and they take Kanter at 3, when they already have Favors, Jefferson, Okur and Millsap. Fuck I'm pissed.

Not a bad pick by the Celtics pick of Marshon Brooks (Providence College) since it adds some depth and potential scoring/assists as help for Rondo. Questionable defensive skills but nothing KG or Doc can't fix by teaching him the Celtics style of defense.

Still predicting Ainge will somehow find a way to release or trade him before the season is over like every other draft pick last few years.

EDIT: I f**king new it, Ainge just traded away the pick to the Nets. At least the Celtics gained a potentially good big man for depth and extra pick for next year's draft.

Thank you DETROIT PISTONS for drafting Birdman 1 spot before the wizards.

psyched about the Nuggets pick, even though I've forgotten how to spell his name already

Anytime you can trade for World Peace you think you'd do it but..no

Looks like the Nugs realized how fucking terrible they are at rebounding

Welcome to Denver, Chukwudiebere Maduabum
