    Luke Babbitt was picked higher than Claver. Luke Babbitt averaged 18 points and 6 rebounds a game in the D league (similar to the league Claver is in.) Luke Babbitt averages 1.4 points and .8 rebounds a game in the NBA.


    Color me not excited at all for Claver

    I don't think you are capable of excitement so I'll leave the coloring book for my granddaughter

    that's good that he is doing better; I think he was injured for awhile last year; maybe he is just recovering fully now. And I don't care where he was drafted; Babbit may turn out to have been a bad draft choice but Claver could turn out to be a good one and could be a piece we use in a trade.

    Nice find, Blazinaway.

    Hard to say from that league how he might do in the NBA. Hopefully we'll bring him to summer league.

    problem is there will likely be no summer league (I assume?) if there is no CBA deal?

    Yes, basketball is played in both. Astute observation.

    After Nate is fired I fully expect you to post a video of you doing a victory dance.

    Well, for one thing he got props from BlazerProphet for a "nice find" that was nothing more than a quickie poach... At least I gave "amimart1" credit for doing the research...

    Does anyone really care? It's not like he asked for props.

    "Does anyone really care?" I guess that's one difference between being 18 years old and 60...

    Yes, I do not require props for posting a link before someone else did. It's the internet.
