Official 2013 NBA Draft Thread

[captainsneakerhead23]

@ESPNSteinLine Thomas Robinson to Cavs for No. 19 pick. Thomas Robinson to Bulls for No. 20. Word is both of those scenarios are on table for Rockets

Please don't do that Chicago, that does absolutely NOTHING for our team

I like T-Rob but I rather take a wing player who can shoot like Crabbe

 

[Animal Thug]

I like it too AT!

Been a fan of T-Rob when I saw how tough his life has been.

Won't believe until official tho

Yeah he's tough; definitely still has room to improve though. I'd rather pick up T-Rob than another prospect at 19 who might not guarantee anything..

A log jam if Robinson gets traded to the Cavs...Varejao, Zeller, Thompson and Robinson. Speights too if he doesn't opt out.

Porter.

 

[denni5themenace]

if only perkins was an expiring deal, would you guys do a varajao for perkins + lamb/draft pick? varajao would fit well on that thunder team.

Porter.

If that trade goes down; the plot only thickens from there...

 

[kevin cleveland]

Robinson and Thompson is kind of redundant, but I guess there are worse things than having a couple of really good rebounders.

If the Bulls trade for Robinson, they intend on flipping him AGAIN.

Maybe the Cavs do, too.

Dude is a real-life coupon.

 

[carltonjunior]

I'm sad for him too because he deserves better.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

He doesn't deserve anything, he's the one who decided to play like he's Kevin Durant, he's the one who keeps jacking jumpshots instead of doing work on glass and the boards.

Thomas Robinson put himself in this situation.

 

[big j 33]

"Deserves"

I don't think many people are actively rooting against the kid, tons of people liked him in college and if he focuses on his strengths he could be effective in the league. There's always going to be a spot for big men who hustle, grab rebounds, and work.

 

[Animal Thug]

Rumor is that the Nets are looking to trade the 22nd pick for CJ Miles...

..I'll drive to Brooklyn myself and drop him off personally, if that's the case.

 

[kevin cleveland]

I can't get over how your wingspan is ~2.5 inches shorter than your height though. I'm +7

Height: 6'2"
Wingspan: 6'0"

 

[finallyfamous]

Haha that has to be a joke.

Some Woj bombs:

@WojYahooNBA Orlando has been doing a great deal of work on players in late lottery-mid 1st round range, weighing possible deals out of No. 2 spot.

@WojYahooNBA Cleveland pushing to acquire Dallas' 13th overall pick, with a focus on drafting Russia's Sergey Karasev, league sources tell Y!

@WojYahooNBA Cleveland believes it has to get ahead of Milwaukee at 15, but it's possible Cavs need to get even higher to assure Karasev will be there.

@WojYahooNBA Gonzaga's Kelly Olynyk, Kansas' Jeff Withey and Arizona's Grant Jerrett are working out for the Hawks in Atlanta today, sources tell Y!

@WojYahooNBA One of the primary targets of Oklahoma City's pursuit of a Top 5 pick on Thursday, sources tell Y! Sports: Maryland 7-footer Alex Len.

 

[kevin cleveland]

Alex Kennedy: Cleveland offered one for Vasquez, six and and a first next year.

Uh, no.

 

[ValarMorghulis]

Cavs "Wiggins plotting"

 

[pmatic]

@ChrisMannixSI Hearing stronger indications that Cleveland likes Maryland's Alex Len with the No. 1 pick.

Get those porn pics ready FinallyFamous.

 

[big j 33]

It's a rumor that doesn't match up with what Cavs fans want.. therefore it's stupid and you're just being a Cleveland hater.

 

[finallyfamous]

Get those porn pics ready FinallyFamous.

Bro..... Ill go out with a bang no doubt about it.

Ill be drinking all day tmw so if Len gets picked....I will go ******g crazy.

 

[ValarMorghulis]

Alex Len >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Nerlens Noel

 

[finallyfamous]

Lensanityyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[N41D]

I wish the Mavs would just draft a foreign guy like Noguiera and leave him over there a couple of years..

Why just flush away the pick... Someone will take Marion for a year without you having to give up a lottery pick.

 

[tommyicerocking]

Alex Len >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Nerlens Noel

i'd take that Canadian and Cody Zeller over Noel too

 

[finallyfamous]

I want Otto.

Dude makes the most sense.

Wouldn't be mad at Mclemore either.

Everyone else doesn't get me pumped. Noel would be ok I guess.

Len just kills me

 

[Animal Thug]

@ some of you for falling for this Alex Len stuff

 

[big j 33]

I understand the need for a SF, but I'd spend the money on a veteran FA for that spot.

Dead last in defensive rebounds, 2nd to last in blocked shots, Noel fits very well.
