2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

I've never seen Bennett play, but from that video he looks like he has the physique of Big Baby.

But dude moves so graceful.

Dude looked HUGE in that jersey. That was the first I've seen him play this preseason. I know he went off at the end of the game but he's not gonna be able to keep that up for a whole 82 games and possibly playoffs looking like that. He's been with the Cavs all summer...I don't get how they don't have his *** in better shape by now with the season a few weeks away.

[Peep Game]

rck3sactown how do you feel about another former King set to flourish in the Great Casspi?? Pls respond.

Al Jefferson was carted off last night, looks like he had a bad ankle injury.

That deal looks even worse now for Charlotte.

 

[buc em]

X-rays came back negative, said it's just a bad sprain. And his teammates helped him walk off the court into the locker room...he wasn't carted off.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

I pray Rudy doesn't get traded. Dude is our only hope in having a winning season for the first time in 5 seasons.

****wtbs

terrible SN to post ratio.

And Rudy Gay?  Wouldnt yall rather have Andrew Wiggins?  

 

[awwsome]

Rudy Gay is a less effective Melo and the Knicks ain't winning anything with Melo so Toronto aint winning anything Gay for damn sure.

I'm always happy seeing former Kings flourish! What's the over/under on his mpg tho?

Why everyone hating on Rudy now?

 

[Trillmatic90]

By winning season I meant making it into the playoffs with an above .500 record. And Rudy Gay is more of a poor man's Paul George than a poor man's Carmelo.

How is it living under a rock?

That's even worse

why would you want an above .500 record in this draft?  So yall can live in mediocrity, make it to the first round, get smashed by my boys or the Heat, and not get Wiggins, or Parker or one of the other young dudes coming out?  Yall need all the help yall can get, and Rudy Gay aint no franchise savior

Rudy is a better shooter/scorer then pg

Technically speaking, the chances of the Raptors landing the first pick in this draft are less than 5 percent. Why would we give up a star player for a small chance at landing the first pick? If that doesn't work out then the Raptors would be in an even a worse position than they are in now.

And Rudy is not even close to the shooter that Paul George is

Rudy Gay is not a star player in any way shape or form.  A pretty good player, sure, but any player in the top 10 gives yall a better shot at the future than Rudy Gay.  When has he ever lead a team anywhere as the teams best player?

I would let Rudy go if we were guaranteed a top 5 pick, but outside of the top 5 I'm not sure who would be a game changer for the Raptors' future. You gotta remember that a lot of players come in to the league hyped up but don't live up to the potential. At least in Rudy we have some one who is a proven 20 ppg scorer and reliable clutch player.

Who said anything about first pick? There are multiple prospects in the upcoming draft who will be better NBA players than Rudy Gay
