Videos from Day 3: Motiejunas, JB Bickerstaff (on Terrence Jones)

Thanks, Clutch

When Jones was picked I opined that he was selected for another team. Why TJ? Now it's Oh, my he's a dadgum good guy!

If only Dwight/Drew could be acquired just for bad contracts and Kmart with NGs.

 

Any highlights? Thanks!

 

Damn, I missed the game. Anyone know how to watch it after the fact. I see NBATV is not re-airing it.

Thanks

 

I really hope the Magic like White more than they do T.Jones.

 

I hope they like the draft picks, Marcus Morris, Kevin Martin and PPat. And we can keep the rest.

 

If you go to NBA leauge pass you can buy the summer league package for just $5. It has all the summer league games recorded, Rockets games included.

Best of all, you don't have to have the overall league pass package and there are no black outs since we are in Texas (I wish regular league pass did not have those restrictions).

Martin and Morris is just salary filler right now. Martin isn't done but he has no value as a player to a rebuilding team that's gutted.

 

It's not about what Orlando likes, its about what were willing to give them in combination with the picks and contracts were willing to take on.

With the lack of serious bidders, we have the leverage in negotiations.

 

Exactly. The Toronto pick should hold a lot of stock for the risk we are taking, and the trade should be built around that.

How many teams will trade a guaranteed lottery pick for a player who doesn't want to be here and will leave after a 1yr? They should be happy that we're willing to even give that.

 

Am I deluding myself to think that our rookies are better than the new players we get excited about at the start of every year? Add Lin and Asik and I'm excited. Premature, I know.

 

It's too bad we're filling the roster with ball handling and passing big men AFTER Adelman leaves.

 

Can R2K pls come out of retirement and post some highlights?

 

Donuts' speech and mannerisms remind me of a cocky Yao. I miss the big fella. It's nice to see.

 

Specifically because White is awesome at making entry passes into the post. Better than anyone we've had here in a while (including PGs).

 

Somebody needs to refer Donuts to Hakeem's strength coach. Hakeem was the strongest player in the league and fast as can be. He doesn't need weight to be strong. Olajuwon out muscled David Robinson and Shaq. One guy more cut, the other obviously bigger. Donuts sounds like a great candidate for Olajuwon like strength.

 

Good stuff. I hope Donuts stay cocky and I didn't realize he speaks great English. I guess I was expecting a VSpan/Yao(rookie season) level of English.

Also what is happening out there that Donuts can't keep his head straight?

 

Lol at the end when they said "thanks Donatas" I thought I heard "thanks dumbass" for a second. Took me a second to realize they actually said his name.

 

I think if donuts can add more weight (maybe by eating donuts) there are not enough skilled centers to where that will be a negative for us .. that way we can put tjones at the 4 and have them team up with lin (hopefully) at 1, lamb at 2, parsons at 3 .. with (insert back up pg), white, patterson et all coming off the bench and i think we have a more exciting team than last year .. i would take my chances with that team, evaluate the rookies. Then next season I would prob have two top 10 picks .. i would either pick two more rookies or get a top 3 pick and get one player through the draft and sign one more max FA and continue developing my team that way

 

I think the reason everyone looked good has more to do with Sacremento's awful defense.

 

I love Jones' answer to the question at 1:28; seems really embedded with the team already.
