    I mean outside of pick 15, what about the other two are worth getting excited for? Everybody likes to bring in the late round superstars in the league but those are rare. Houston is involved every year in discussions and they have had a good team year after year. Last summer was such a failure, the only good thing to come out of last season is nurk. Overpayed for turner and crabbes contract is disgusting. Paid Meyers more. To me this is more like a redeem yourself moment. Dame wants pg, cj does. I get it, it's short term, at least let me find out you were aggressive in talks, let me know we are trying to win now because overpaying turner, crabbe, keeping Meyers. That's not much of a winning thing to do.

    Why are you disappointed? This is literally how it always plays out with NO. No leaks ever. You saw that Kim Hughes got fired for that right?

    A good draft day to me might just be trading 20/26 and some mathcing player salery for Anthony to NY
    using 15 as BPA {dont think I want to use this for Anthony)
    and 26/20 to draft a big

    AND trust the billionair and his GM to decide well (who am I anyway)

    Danny Ainge has done a great job in Boston.

    Let's just juice it up in the rumor mill here....I'm tempted to start a thread about us bringing back Lamarcus, Wes, Nico, Rolo, Patty Mills, Channing Frye and Steve Blake, Tim Frazier and Luke Babbitt for all our draft picks and we keep Nurk, Dame and CJ!

    He has but you can argue Neil has done a good job here too. I'm just saying with the whole asset thing they are alike

    The HCP will be in the NYC from tomorrow till Sunday for work. He will be attending the draft as a Blazer fan. He will be bringing some of the Latin Mojo he is known for! He sees good things on the horizon for our team! #FAMS

    Talk to @Strenuus - he's always grabbing at or holding on to folks' pants and shorts.
