    Would Oturu center from UM be decent pick 46?

    I just want to say, it is DRAFT DAY!!! It's my favorite day of the year. I love all of the possibilities. I am a huge Blazers fan but I'm also a huge fan of the NBA. We might do another really cool thing tonight like we just did with RoCo or we might do absolutely nothing up to and including just trading out of the second round completely. The rest of the league is all over the place with how they evaluate this draft we have a few teams with a grip of draft picks (yeah I used grip like it's 1999). It's just a great time for a pretend GM like me, to see what all of these real GMs do and no that is not a shout out to realgm.com... well I guess now it is. I'll be posting all evening but Happy Draft everybody!!!

    haha I think Evan Turner was the primary scorer, or Diebler who we drafted as well. Sullinger was a beast as well

    Jake Layman was my neighbor for two years in Portland. Cool younger guy.

    Same here. I’ve always loved the NBA draft. Gonna order some Chinese food and hope the family is willing to nerd out with me for a bit or I’ll have to go upstairs and watch it.

    We could have got Galinari with the 16th pick. I like Roco better though.

    First time I met him I was buying a case of beer on a Friday at 2pm at Thurman Street Market and he said “that’s my dude.” It was a good laugh.

    Bilas is pointing out something very crucial about tonight's draft. The funny thing is, with the exception of Wiseman, a lot of the top prospects in the top ten on expert draft boards have a lot higher chance of never being meaningful contributors in the NBA than the guys that are 11-30. You have a ton of guys in this draft with no star potential that are definitely going to contribute to wins in this league.

    They were definitely entertaining trades. Whether they went that way who knows
