    Not only that, but they're positioning to possibly move up and get a second lotto. They've got four picks in the 2014 draft.

    Well if we don't best the suns opening night... We deserve to miss playoffs. That would be a disgrace. No Morris or Gortat?!

    Also shameful the blazers couldn't pull this off knowing Gortat is 100 times better then Lopez!

    Well no shit son. Thanks for bringing it up. You don't think EVERY fucking person in here doesn't realize that. That's a typical MIXUM post. You aren't helping your cause.

    Andrew Bogut, Warriors agree to three-year contract extension, per source. @WojYahooNBA reports it's for $43 million

    That Philly team that only won 8 games and is considered the worst team in NBA history still won 8 games.

    It's a long season and shit happens. You can't read too much into one win or one loss.

    Easier said than done. Difficult to do in most drafts, let alone this draft coming up.

    Sounds like it's 3/36, and then incentives added in. And, it's a declining deal.

    I am not sure Phoenix is any worse then they were before the trade. Is Emeka hurt? If not they are the about the same. And from watching them in preseason they will easily win 20-25 games.

    Emeka is hurt. They only won 25 last season, and that was with Dudley, Gortat and Scola.

    Get the fuck outa here with that! PHX was going to only win 12 games or so WITH those guys. I have noticed watching a couple Wiz preseason games that Okafor hasn't been playing. Haven't looked at any stats though. PHX might break the all time loss record!

    We will see. I think the Morris brothers are dicks but they aren't bad. Add them to Emeka, Len, and Fyre and Plumlee they have decent size.
    Put them together with Bledsoe and Dragic and they will win around 15 games at home and maybe 5 on the road. All time loss record will be safe. (If their guards stay healthy)

    Oden plays 4 minutes last night after not playing for almost 4 years, and he sits out tonight?
