    You feel more comfortable having Walker play center or the kid we just drafted? I can tell you who would put up better numbers. If Clingan is starting at center, you better have SOMEBODY behind him.

    He's a borderline NBA player. Nothing special at all.

    I’m cool with both Yang and keeping Bari? Not sure what the fuss is about

    He famously doesn't know anything about draft prospects and comes in here to tell us not to get excited about the draft.

    You sound like a miserable fan. Is fan the right word? I can tell you NBA franchises are very excited to add young talent to their core.

    You're welcome to do whatever you want, but you and whoever shouldn't be dictating to other fans to not get excited. It's sports, not geopolitics.

    Crapshoot makes it sound like they’re pulling names out of a hat. I don’t think that’s the case as some teams are clearly better at drafting than others. I think most agree that Olshey was for some reason good at second rounders. Bunch of teams have nothing to show for a decade of second round picks

    No you don’t get it. Have never said this or believe this. I don’t think he is ready for NBA minutes. Check yourself.

    Is that what I do? I do get excited about draft picks….. that deserve that excitement. And you have now joined KingSpeed as the only two people on earth who have stated I don’t know anything about this game.

    You’re “famously” the type of “fan” who has crazy unrealistic expectations of players and teams and then are one of the ones who bitches when shit doesn’t pan out huh? And we have to hear about it every game thread huh?
