Lottery Drawing Tonight 7:30 PM Central

Poor Blake, being on the Clippers only guarantees you a career of mediaocracy.

There does Conley's chances at starting for the next decade. Poor Ricky for being stuck in Memphis. On the other hand, Memphis gets another spanish player.

 

i think the clippers will definitely trade one of their forwards...

they can't play zeke, kaman, camby, thorton AND griffin...

 

Maybe we can get Camby if they take Griffin. I assume most of you don't want Camby though.

 

Rubio will probably fall now to Sacramento or Washington...wouldn't be surprised if he stays in Europe couple more years

 

I'd take him

 

I wouldn't be surprised if Camby is offloaded to a team far enough below the salary cap for only a second round draft pick again. My guess would be the Pistons.

 

Clippers will take Rubio. Memphis takes Griffin. OKC takes Thabeet.

 

Don't forget about OJ Mayo. He needs to dominate the ball to be effective. They will need to to get rid of Mayo.

 

So do you guys think OKC throws anything at the Clippers to try and move up? I know the #1 pick isn't likely to get moved, but one can only figure that OKC has such a hard on for Griffin that they've got to try something...

 

I think OKC will look at Thabeet now.

He's really raw offensively, but he is a pretty dominant shot blocker that would give them a decent inside presence.

Just don't ask him to score.

 

You had such a nice future ahead Blake Griffin...

 

Here's the draft lottery... uploaded.. processing.. should be working shortly.

Agreed. Personally, I don't think Thabeet will be much in the NBA. If he becomes a defensive stopper in the middle and a good rebounder, the Thunder should be happy.

 

i think OKC may offer the 3rd and one of their other first round picks for griffin along with maybe another player

 

OKC also have the salary space to absorb one of the Clippers bad contracts in Davis, Kaman, or Randolph.

 

For those who miss the drawing:

and here is the vid.

 

I thing Thabeet will become a serviceable big man in the NBA. He has size and is very mobile. He is adding on weight and will eventually develop a few offensive moves to compliment his defense. I would love to OKC get him.

 

Even the Clippers can't blow it this time or can they?

 

We should try to take DeAndre Jordan off the Clippers hand since now they are loaded with bigs.
