    Not really following this set of posts but I have to ask, why would skin color prevent him from calling someone well spoken? Does he have a trend or something?

    Are you guys on the verge of going DaDakota crazy mode if Morey doesn't do anything in this draft?

    A stretch forward with the boris diaw body and works on Defense. Wish we had him...

    Was hoping Baldwin would drop to one of the mid 20s picks that was actually obtainable. Guess it means Conley leaving Memphis for sure, wonder where Demetrius jacksons gonna go.

    He's not 2-3 picks ahead. He gets word of the picks the same time Sterling does. He just announces them before Sterling walks out. He's on the same pick.

    That said: I agree with crash5179. The Verticle is a better show for learning about the players. I switched to watching that.

    He has 2 draft picks. I expect him to use both of them if he doesn't use them in a trade.

    He was supposed to be the heir apparent "White guy playing small forward" that we seem to always have on the team.

    Dekker
    Parsons
    Budinger
    Nachbar
    Langhi

    Go watch his tweets. He announced Baldwin & Pistons pick before the Grizzles took Baldwin.

    Furkan Korkmaz sounds like a name Morey would draft just for feels.

    Malik Beasley is a perfect fit for the Rockets.

    Henry Ellenson sounded like he was about to drop a freestyle. #WellSpoken
