    Blazers will never get baby Sabonis, please give up on that. Imagine the extra pressure the kid would feel playing for Portland. It's not happening

    Gary Payton 2 tho? Sure

    Teams leaking out that Thon Maker is not 19 now.

    Just beware of these last minute rumors from unsubstantiated sources. Reeks of something the Spurs would do to deter teams from drafting him so he lands down to them.

    Thon Maker isn't really 19? I'm shocked!

    Lol that's a silly reason for them not to get Sabonis. Now I could see the argument that they don't have a pick or can't get a pick that high but to not draft because of pressure is silly. No offense

    I am prepared to bet that we don't end up with a pick in this draft.

    My advice: delete this post or KS will consider it a bet and harass you for life if the Blazers end up with a draft pick.

    I think I just screwed up embedding it:

    Hearing that we shouldn't be surprised if high second-round picks in tonight's NBA Draft fetch the full $3 million in trades tonight

    As I suspected, picks are going to be like gold to teams chasing cap room this summer . . . high second rounders in particular.

    Isn't this "he's really 35!!!" what they say about EVERY SINGLE African player?

    And Korean softball player, of course.

    Seriously.

    And the source that is leaking this 21-23 bullshit is from Perth? Come on now. How do they get away with this shit?

    Similar to Sullinger falling because of so called back issues that suddenly appeared on draft day, or DeJuan Blair no ACL or something (how the hell does a guy play in the NBA for years without an ACL?), etc etc etc.

    It's bullshit. Stupidity abound.

    Mutumbo played well and had a long, solid for being drafted at age 40.
