    Remember Thompson was taken one pick ahead of Jonas Valanciunas. And they took Waiters over Lillard AND Drummond.

    They don't have the luxury of playing Portland and Utah every night.

    I've picked 3 out of my 5 teams so far for LPBB. POR/GSW/WAS

    Was debating NO and CLE/DET mainly to allow me some time zone diversity and so I could watch some exciting young players.

    But SAC looks seriously fun to watch.

    Oh I'm not defending the Waiters pick at all. That was a huge reach from them.

    Kevin Love is a man on fire. I kinda take back all the Hate I've spewed at him over the years.

    Didn't NO get crushed, though? Good games don't mean a lot if you can't win.

    I really don't think there was any doubt about him as a talent. He had some monster games last year, but he just couldn't stay healthy.

    He's got a really unbalanced team. I really don't agree with the good stats on bad teams = bad player sentiment.

    I don't think anyone said he was bad. It just sucks if you go out and ball hard and your team doesn't win.

    He's nasty. What a brilliant move getting Bledsoe and Plumlee. Meanwhile oshley gets robin Lopez. Yikes.

    They have three first rounders next year and four GREAT players in plumlee, Bledsoe, dragic, and tucker. Nobody in nba is set up better for future

    Funny though sixers and suns 2-0 so much for tanking

    I'm proud of them for playing their hearts out. Set a tone for a winning culture. Glad their coaches didn't get the memo
