    He's not spoiling it this year. The picks are coming out along with the Vertical which is streaming live. I suggest watching the Vertical on your TV, its a superior draft show to that crap ESPN puts out.

    Oh I know... I was a fan of Sabonis and Presti liking him means hes the next Porzingis for them. On top of getting Sabonis, they get Oladipo too. Presti bent Orlando over and didnt even think about spitting on it.

    I'd look at other players. Skal has trouble beating mismatches and easily gets pushed back under the rim. Outside from height and shooting mid range jumpers, what would be the point. I think he would be a decent role player at best.

    Stein just deleted a tweet about the Clippers trading Redick to the Grizzlies for Brendan Wright and the 17th pick?

    If he was white do you think he would have called him well spoken.

    We are getting close to the part of the draft where I think Houston could jump into the 1st round if they are interested in doing that.

    I'm rooting for us to nab Joel Bolomboy somehow.
