you know who I want yall to take...quit playin

And my boy Royce

According to David Aldridge's mock draft somewhere on NBA.com (too much work to cut/paste/link from my phone) he has the Grizzlies selling the pick. But then again, he has Drummond falling to pick #16. Take what he's saying with a bag of salt.

@SIPabloTorre Asked Royce what he told Drummond, who'd downplayed ISU frontcourt, in ISU-UConn: "'You f----- up. You talked too much.' A teaching point."

ayo dude went hard lol

Yea, I saw that, but I think thats unlikely. A team that needs talent in the  cheapest way possible would use the pick they have and try to buy a 2nd rounder as well. That's one way to put money into your roster without going against the tax. Using $1M on a 1st rounder is not going to kill your cap. If the plan was to re-sign OJ, then yea I think you should sell it. Outside of that, no.

Take TRob

 

[solarius49]

I've seen a few places that said the Pacers were trying to move up. If they do, Perry Jones would be a GREAT pick, to learn behind D West, hell even Sullinger....just NOT Draymond Green

$##$ is comical.

Harrison's flaws were partially hidden at UNC thanks to Kendall

Go head, let the hate out. All of it. Smh

White can talk that noise, but he can't get on a plane?

? What kind of logic is that? You take the guy you want, not based on if he can go 3 picks later.

 

[ballinsam23]

atleast these guys know how to dress properly

Royce is the cockiest guy I've ever met, one of the first words he ever said to me was how upset he was the league changed the rules so you had to go to college, otherwise he would just go straight to the L. He was 14

THIS.

Personally, I think dude just wanted to breeze by the season and get to this point....that has nothing to do with his skills. Hell, he prob wouldn't have even went back for his soph year had it not been for the lockout.

The fact that he nicknamed himself the Black Falcon would be just cause for all the slander he's received if his projected draft possession didn't warrant it.

@ anyone calling him that too.

 

[venom lyrix]

- Livingston, Brockman and Leuer and 12th pick from MIL to Houston for Dalembert and 14th pick

-Houston holds the 12th, 16th and 18th picks in Thursday's draft now. They'll keep working to move up.
