I really like what the knicks did in the draft. They sold hardway way too high and got a solid pg that can contribute right away and they also got one of the best young international centers in the second that may come over immediatelly.
Melo made his choice. Money and big market over contention. I dont feel bad for him at all. And if he was such a good superstar he should at least lead his team in the playoffs on his own. Its the east.
HOT TAKE ALERT Not a huge fan of this draft as a whole. Seems like we took a bunch of players in the draft we didn't need. Undersized PF and stretch 4/SF. I would have liked to see at least one ball handeler selected.

Anyone have a link to the Morey video after the draft last night? Can't find it on the Rockets site or NBA.com. I think it was removed.

At 7:30 of this conference, Flip and Milt said that Houston wanted way too much from the Wolves to move up a couple of picks to take Tyus Jones by claiming that they wanted his "First Born" http://www.nba.com/timberwolves/live-streaming-news

Wow better stay off social media..: sad and kinda embarassing. Wood has talent but hes too raw and there have been rumpurs hes lazy and has poor work ethic. But im sure plenty of teams will give him a chance. And maybe it will help him in the end more than if he was a low second rounder. Btw what i think what happened is that Murray was blackmailling the wolves and smokescreening everyone that he would draft tyus and tried to get rubio from them. When they didnt cooperate at the last second he chose dekker. That also correlates with woj getting at first the pick wrong. The only he did.
Wood needs to work hard. This humbling experience might hopefully motivate him. If he can catch on to a Summer League team, he might be able to make it to the NBA. I am glad that Morey couldn't get Rubio, that would hurt us, more than helping us. He should forget about chasing him.
Well maybe it wasnt rubio but it would have been someone good. Judging by what the cavs got not just the seconds. And the rights of Bjelika the wolves would gladly give up if it got them their target. So it would have to be a young talent. Maybe it was Dieng. I guess only cyber can tell us now.
