    Who has more sexual tension between them? PapaG and Zags, or Shooter and HCP?

    Shooter, you should be happy today, what with the voting rights act being overturned and all.

    A bad day for the racial instigators, a great day for the rest of America.

    Fuck those racial instigators, right? It's bad enough to be an instigator, but a racial instigator is just the pits.

    So why Oladipo over McLemore?

    Oladipo is scouted to have stellar defense. I don't know much about either.

    Zags and Papa, no doubt.

    But HCP's and KS's would give it a run (the runs?) for the money.

    I would say it is for Len, then drafting a player with LMA like skills in Zeller at 10.

    HCP, don't stop there. The numerous posts asking for an opinion but he/she provides none until way later? You open the thread and there's a little icon and that's it? Shit's weak! You gonna see the new Finding Nemo?

    I could see either way at #1 (Len or Nerlens), but I agree on Zeller. Go two bigs. You just dealt LMA and you needed another big. You go for some solid big talent right away.

    Yeah I know. Was trying to put it out there without giving it too much attention. It already takes up too much time/space. I knew a response like yours was coming. I kinda think its mixup now that he's on Xanax or Valium.

    Agreed. LMA's a lot to give up. I'm a huge fan. But you're getting three pieces, all very young, and any/all of the three could become all-stars. Long odds, for sure, but you have to gamble in this league to win. Seems like a fairly solid gamble. We'd at least get three quality rotation players.

    Given that this country has twice elected a black man as President, and that the only black justice on the Supreme Court voted in favor of this decision, I'd say there's good evidence that this particular section of the Voting Rights Act was rather outdated.

    McLemore looks like he has star potential. He can shoot from anywhere on the floor (Oladipo isn't a great shooter), and he's crazy athletic. Reminds me of Ray Allen a bit when he was young.
