    Lighten up, Francis. That was a great joke. Or be a little bitch and report it, like mine was

    Some people don't have a sense of humor and are just stuffy. Move on.

    Just draft the Kansas dude, and plug him into our starting lineup at the SF.

    I really wish the media would stop giving the dipshit dad all the attention he craves.

    I would love that, but we need to figure out how to trade up.

    The pretext for the thread is that we got a top 3 pick. So, ignore the PGs, and take the SF, who's been amazing in the two Kansas NCAA tourney games I've watched.

    @BonesJones and I have been all over Josh Jackson for months now. I really believe he could be the missing piece for us for the long term and would solidify everything else we need... as long as the rest continue to improv...(Vonleh)

    Whole lot more likely for us to be able to get Justin Jackson than Josh, but he seems to be climbing draft boards as well.

    Don't know anything about Justin and I agree Josh is a long shot. I don't think we have what those teams want in order to trade for him.

    I see Boston actually trading down to get him or just drafting him. They have Thomas and don't need a PG, but Josh would be a perfect SF for them.

    If our pick is Ball, I would trade all three of our picks, and Crabbe (salary match) for Butler.

    Hard to believe that Crabbe and Butler have almost identical salaries and player options over the next three seasons.

    I'm pretty sure his dad was killed because of gambling debts or something of that nature.

    You should familiarize yourself with him. Though he has a lower ceiling, I think he's actually much more ready to contribute on the NBA level immediately.

    In light of the tone of this thread I'll skip the obvious gay joke.

    MM: "Ha. I like this guy"

    New Member: "I'm a girl but thanks!!"

    MM: "Oh in that case I'm going to tell you a joke about a woman being sexually assaulted! Let me know if it's inappropriate."

    Sly: "It was inappropriate."

    4 days later...

    MM: "I'm such a victim, people are too PC. I'm being picked on."

    Sly: "You really need to move on."

    This is clearly a personal attack, and from a MOD! What kind of show is Denny running here anyway!?!
