we probably won't get a superstar at 5, though it is possible. we do need good shooters, and playmakers, so not a waste, but i do like a good reach sometimes.

so, if we were to do this again, i'd say 'no thanks to an undersized combo guard who isn't a real point guard but also can't defend the 2'. sadly, i think there are players in the top seven that fit this description. it's like they can either shoot but not defend, or defend but can't shoot...

i've had thoughts that when a player is trying new stuff and learning, they don't always go at full speed, so i'm not as worried about his 'motor' as some people are. then again, it's hard to differentiate between careful personal playing analysis and lackadaisical playing so who knows.

he's so so so raw, the good news is you can 'unraw' with just a lot of play time, so it's fixable as long as the effort is there. i wasn't impressed much with what i saw when he played though, so i'm kind of 'meh'.

Kidding, it looks like they do. Frankly, there isn't much room for them, but who knows, on a good draft players can drop. I imagine the team will trade them, but who knows? anybody interesting down there? That would outplay the current talent enough to waive someone?

our entire team is comprised of players drafted in the mid to late first or second, with incomplete games. if you have weaknesses, your best chance to make it in the league anyway is to focus entirely on offence and hope you get noticed by someone. i used to think that good defense is just...

poll should be who do we draft if we are at 2, as has been stated, flagg is the obvious number one choice.

Whomever we get will always be ‘the guy we stole’ to me.

Small self correction: Ryan had some ownership, but wasn't the primary owner, it was some major conglomerate whereas Ryan had a smaller stake in the team. This move makes RSL 'owned' (majority stake) by a local group. another side note, the big conglomerate is still part of the picture, which...

how could we decide any of this when the team played the year in a way specifically designed to tank the season? who was really injured? who was really playing at their best? i heard rumors that players were told to try new play styles to 'expand their games' (meaning do new things which...

might not be the right place for this, but it's happening right now. they are making it seem like a great thing, but it kind of feels like LMG is getting the cast-offs of a sport that ryan doesn't have time for anymore...

Flip can’t defend a fence post, sure hope he improves that.

I have mused that Lauri might be a little injured. the way he is banging in the post trying to be a primary scorer lately when playing, if he doesn't have the trunk muscles to handle that it might cause some back spasms that would kind of linger (remember AK's back?) and the jazz might be...

it's not just us, it's every team we play's fans not getting to see a game that isn't rigged. i think it's funny how in boxing, it is considered awful to rig a game, but in the nba (which is still being bet on in vegas) it's just 'everyone is doing it'.

if i were the league, i'd make sure that as many teams as possible leapfrog the jazz assuming that they were not taking themselves.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA (AND SO IT BEGINS) ((i hate the tank)) (((also, anyone who says that the league is ok with this EAT IT)))

from what i've seen so far, flip has the ability to learn and adjust quickly, which is really what you need as an NBA player. if you are concerned about his t'rex-ness, just pretend that he's 6'10 not 7'. everything else can come from weightlifting and repetition.

idunno, he doesn't completely suck, but with so many picks coming i can't see how there will be room in the future. (though i guess it was always planned to trade up with the picks, though it hasn't happened yet)
