I will. All year long. Even in the freezing seventy degree winter. Just hate the bs narrative that Ohio is working class and Miami is all models and millionaires. Most of Miami is middle class or lower. I dig it, babe.....hot as fuck in Ohio today......changed my underwear twice. God bless. |

Id love to hear why you think you deserve it more than Miami fans ever will. Just my opinion after living in Miami for 14 years and attending many sporting events. Miami fans as a group seem to me to lack passion for anything other than a juggernaut. I do know plenty of individuals that do not fit that description, however they are the exceptions that prove the rule for me. I get it, Miami is awesome. There are way better things to do here, year-round than worry about crappy sports teams. If the Dolphins suck in November, people go to the beach on Sunday instead of the stadium. In Cleveland what are you going to do (I'm not criticizing Cleveland for that, it's just a geographic reality). Cleveland fans have a unique culture that is far from perfect and from the outside can be quite easy to make fun of. We hate anyone that beats us, because we're jealous (Elway, Jordan, etc.). We get our hopes us up too easily. We care too much. I can appreciate the ridiculousness every time I hear a Browns fan predict that they'll win "8 or maybe 9 games" this year. Ha! In the end, please don't judge us by our owner and five or ten idiots who burned a shirt for a TV camera. |

I don't get it at all. because for weeks months all we've been hearing about around here is kevin durant, and jimmy butler... then last week the expectations were lowered to al horford and nerlens noel. and then after all that hoopla and all those names being thrown around we ultimately end up with another guy 'with an NBA body' that can't score? really? |

At least he'll look nice in the uniform. In all seriousness though... the NBA's current CBA leaves little wiggle room for teams to pursue free agents. All salaries are capped, and the original team is the only one who can offer a 5th year. That is why most free agents never leave. CHI was never getting rid of Butler, and KD is as likely to go to Boston as Milwaukee. I know it feels like a slap in the face, but the Celt's really don't have many options here. |

That Ibaka trade came outta nowhere. Not sure how I feel about it player wise and cash wise. I'm sure they are gonna like Dion Waiters walk now. Victor will take the place of Reggie Jackson and will be a nice slasher who can cut up the Defense when Russ and Durant are out, and who can give solid D. Their new rookie from Gonzaga has a lot of promise if he can bulk up. Magic got robbed on this one, but this could really affect OKC's chemistry, but damn does that team have a TON of young talent that's bound to keep growing/pan out. Kanter, Payne, VO, Adams, Roberson, McGray. I personally think Ibaka is still one of the most unique and effective players in the league. Magic definitely will have a strong defense with him and Gordon.
Simmons will be good, the question is just how good. He's well rounded, but damn the jumper is pretty lackluster, if he can work on that he'll be a great point forward in this league, if not I can totally see this guy becoming a Darius Miles or something. Seems blessed with a lot of talent, but watching some of his LSU games he just didn't seem to have the mental aspect of the game down. Like dude you are twice as good as anyone on the floor, wreck them.
Being a Duke guy, I've always thought that Ingram is the better choice going back even to last fall. Durant 2.0, and he's exactly what the Lakers need. Dude can do a bit of everything, but he'll get buckets like few do once he bulks up. That's my only concern, but in college he finished through contact rather well. Give him 2 years and I bet he's averaging 20 and playing his way into being an all star. So happy he went to Lakers and not Philly. Laker fans are gonna love his chipotle bag tattoos.
Boston's night was rough. No sympathy for them, they've known this was a weak draft for two years now. It'll be fun to see what they do. It's time for them to make a splash this off season.
I like Hield in NO, and Valentine for the Bulls.
Great second round picks who will make it in the league -
Paige - just a winner even though he never could win at UNC. will be a great great teammate
Diamond Stone - a scoring Tristan Thompson?
Michael Gbinije - has smooth game, a real time version of the Spur's Kyle Slo' Mo anderson, can hopefully adjust to the man to man d of the NBA, which he never could while he was at Duke.
AJ Hammons - should went late in the first. dude is huge and has a huge wingspan. Can d up and get you buckets, just a matter of conditioning and steadily improving those two way skills and making at least one of them elite.
Malcolm Brogdon - a fantastic two way player that probably just slipped this far b/c of his age. Won't light the world on fire, but he can be a 3&D guy for your squad.

Like dude you are twice as good as anyone on the floor, wreck them. ya think? that's being kind. i want no part of that guy. i was relieved when i heard earlier in the day that philly was taking him at #1 and knowing there was zero chance he would slip to #3. |

Well James didn't have a good jumper when he first came into the league either...sure Simmons needs to work on it,but he's got the scoring talent and the physical tools to be great As for Boston if I were them I would've taken Bender,but with the overall quality of this draft there was no way the Bulls (who actually refused #5+Rubio) were going to trade Butler,and the chances of signing Durant or another big name are exactly the same as they were before Sure they could've picked better,but I don't get all the negativity around them They still have a good young team,a great coach,a competent GM and a lot of cap space Talking about the Spurs,I like this Murray kid from what I've seen He's got length, can finish at the rim,needs to work on his shot and defense and the Spurs are the best team to do it...and he's just 19 I also like the signing of Arcidiacono who went undrafted (he'll get the Italian passport soon  ),there are very few chances he'll make it into the final roster, but he's a proper Spurs kind of player,it'll be fun to see what he does in the Summer League |
