"The superfluous, a very necessary thing"

INSPECTAH DECK posted:

Don't let the Lakers or Celtics move up.

Also don't let Dan Gilbert's son move up either.

There's a bunch of player comp names that I don't recognize. :(

The guy on TheSportsBank has been pretty accurate over the past few years, so that's my go-to mock draft.

I like Spencer Dinwiddie in the 2nd round. Apart from a great mustache and name (and a torn ACL) is there anything else I should know about him ?

They could also see what happens and offer their #3 and #10 if someone takes Wiggins.

They're actually not interested in Wiggins and are trying to bluff the Cavs or Bucks into taking him instead of Parker and Embiid, and trying to trade him for #3 and #10.

Kings are bringing in Hood for a workout. They've also brought in Harris, which makes me think they are considering trading down. The rumor is some kind of Dennis Schröder + #15 for #8 swap, which I wouldn't hate if we get Payne

The Bulls are reportedly looking to move up using both their picks (16 and 19), so that's another possible partner.

For people wary of Dante Exum, I don't think he looks great in this video;

Noel and Embiid would make one hell of a front court.

Would it have a leg to stand on ?

I like the Lakers trying to become Sixers West. Taking Jodie Meeks and Nick Young, now they want Thad and MCW. I'm sure it will work well for them.

They could probably grab Evan Turner if they wanted him too !

Definitely sucks for him, but his life isn't necessarily shortened:

quote:

As recently as 40 years ago, people with Marfan syndrome faced a virtually hopeless situation on account of chronic mitral and aortic regurgitation, heart failure, and acute and chronic aortic dissection. Life span was reduced by at least one third, with many patients succumbing in the second and third decades. Today, cardiovascular manifestations of Marfan syndrome remain among the central issues in diagnosis and management, but it is incumbent on the physicians who encounter these patients to stress the prophylactic monitoring and therapies that now can result in a nearly normal life expectancy.

The NBA's website has a live video up of the draftees boarding a bus.

I clicked this just in time to see the camera just rolling filming that reporter's rear end on the bus.

Some real exciting action going on right now.

"a lot of interesting emotion going on"
