    Thats a great idea. Kind of like an auction fantasy football draft. Teams would have draft points. That would give the appropriate value to the #1 pick, in years where theres only an Anothony Bennet teams only bid a portion, in a year with superstar studs some teams might bid their entire bankroll. It makes the draft picks a system of skill and planning instead of dumb luck.

    According to some here this guy is Black Jesus! He's had a rough past week or so......

    Paul George has 6 points on 2 of 14 shooting. But the Pacers lead the Wizards by a score of 67-57 with 10 minutes left.

    The Nets have never looked more old. They look like they are in pain just running the court vs Miami - Joe Johnson especially. Up 14 in the 3rd, and it's a 2pt game with 2:44 to play, doesn't look too good for Brooklyn. And they have to play the 2nd of a back-to-back tomorrow vs Toronto.

    The Nets have a chance to break or tie Portlands Record of biggest shut out in an OT period (I think Portland outscored Houston once, 15 or 16 to 0)

    Ya. lol Miama avoids becoming the 11th team in NBA history to not score a point in an overtime period with a bush league lay up with 20 sec left when Booklyn gave them quarter. Miami annoys me with their antics.

    Oh, I forgot to respond about that All-Star thing with starters. You were right. I miss-understood you were talking about Kobe being replaced.

    I don't get why the Lakers would want Kevin Love. He doesn't put them over the top, or get them closer.

    Blake Griffin has 31 against the L*kers with 2:26 left in the third. If he had 0, the Clips would still be up by 7.

    After 3, Clips lead Lakers 101-60. In the 3rd quarter, Clips outscore them by 31-8.

    The tears of Laker fans are so delicious.

    It's actually kind of hard to not troll the Lakers fans after they have a big time injury after what they would always do when we had injuries.

    But, watching from afar is just as fun.

    It won't be so funny when Sterno gives the Lakers the 1, 2, or 3 draft pick

    They want to be the next Knicks. A team of flawed superstars that only play on one end of the court.
