    Don't need to give credence, but it is fun to speculate and laugh at certain propositions. Find entertainment wherever I can, buddy!

    Usually true, although we all heard about the Nurk deal beforehand...as well as the Afflalo deal. AND his infatuation with Zach Collins.

    MPJ dropping all the way down to 12 in some of these mocks has my mouth watering. The kid is a 1st overall pick talent and if all he needs is a “red shirt year” in the NBA then that might be the biggest draft steal in a long time.

    This is not true st all. When Plums was traded this whole forum was shocked.

    I don't remember hearing about the Afflalo deal early either and I'm in here daily.

    Links or it didn't happen.

    No. Don’t think he even worked out for the team.

    In today's multi media environment news people (sports, national or world news) are always eager to try and break the big story and will often throw crap out and hope they are right. If they are wrong it quietly goes away, people move on and nobody cares. It's unfortunate as it makes it tough on what to even believe. We have way to many media people and bloggers now days that want to get in on the action and try and make a name for themself. Even Wojo seems to have lost some of his ability to put out accurate information.

    He didn't. The only contact we had with him throughout the draft process was an interview with out sports psychologist.

    Look how tall Doncic is. And how short Young's pants are.

    Hope we don't draft a guy in a bow tie...

    Did I mention Collins? Whispers on this board doesn't mean anything.

    Is "mouth watering" what happens when you're about to throw up a little?

    Which is exactly what I'm saying. WE were whispering about Collins. I don't remember NO saying one word about him and he didn't even have him in for a work out...

    Impressed with Mo Bamba interview. He is going to be very popular.
