    The NBA is known as the sport with the most fairness.

    Maybe just a cycle of giving every team a first Overall pick......and then it is up to luck if that 1st pick's name is Wemby or Michael Olowokandi or just Kenyon Martin Senior.

    You cannot pick the Draft Class but you get one anyhoot.

    Nobody is going to miss out on Cade if they get the first, I doubt the Rox would be fumbling that.

    Yeah, it’s gonna be Wemby and Flagg for a long time if they’re healthy.
    Flagg by far the best American prospect in a long, long time.
    Those two are really in our division and state. Such bullshit

    I hate that he’s so good. He’s so young too. And so white. Will be the NBA’s new favorite.
