    Shhhh...you'll upset it. Just back away slowly while looking down - never make eye contact.

    He's a stretch big man that blocks shots. I'd say the closest thing is a poor man's Anthony Davis in terms of style.

    He gets LMA comparisons because of UT more than anything. I've also heard Rasheed Wallace, but I don't really like that one having watched UT all year.

    Wtf is this? I'd rather dude doesn't even do this, what exactly is the point of these dumb ass riddles anyway? If you know something say it, otherwise these messages are pointless. Besides he's wrong most of the time anyway

    Ibaka is a pretty obvious one too. I think he'll be a great rim protector and defensive rebounder from day one. The shooting stroke and touch around the rim is pretty solid too, but he'll develop that further in a year or two.

    The worry is strength and his strange gait that may lead to injuries.

    Myles Turner would be sweet though, but he's out of range he's gonna be a lottery pick

    It's in reference to Doc's tweet a page back.

    I'm not getting my hopes up on moving up in the draft. There are a couple of players who look like they could help right away, but I don't see them falling to the 18th pick.

    I really like Tyus. Booker or Turner wouldn't be bad either

    Just a hypothetical using Doc's info (or opinion?)

    Trade T-Jones and #18 to Miami for #10. They're still in win-now as long as Bosh, Wade, and Dragic are there. Bosh's injury concerns make TJ appealing because he's proven, and can allow Bosh to rest more throughout the season.

    Take Myles Turner with #10.

    Trade Nick Johnson and #32 to someone 25-28. Likely San Antonio or Memphis.

    Take a shooter like Rashad Vaughn, a PG like Terry Rozier, or a 3&D guy like Justin Anderson with #26. Just depends on who Morey likes and who falls.

    We could end up with something similar to:

    Llull/Bev/Terry
    Harden/KJ or Brew
    Ariza/Anderson
    DMo/Smith/Turner
    Howard/Capela/Turner

    And it will only happen if Booker doesn't fall to Miami
