Otto Porter will prove to be the best player in this draft.

i am assuming you mean Oladipo and not Zeller.

Oladipo is an athletic freak. He can jump out of the building and will play really good defense. He gets in the passing lanes and has a real good sense on when to gamble for steals

On offense he is probably more of a slasher. He struggles to knock down the jumper consistently

I think he will be a real solid pro.

Oladipo will be the best player to come out of this draft. Dude puts the work in his game. Every year he dramatically improved. He has a killer mentality and wants to be the best.

He shot 60% from the field and 44% from 3. The year before he had shot 47% from the field and 20% from 3. So you can see he put the work in. Though, some of the shooting success probably was some luck.

Guy is fucking smart too. Graduated from IU in 3 years. His intelligence shines through his play on defense and offense. A really clever cutter to the basket. I hope so much the Cavs pick him over Noel. Irving and Oladipo would be such a nasty backcourt.

If Zeller worked half as hard as Oladipo does he would be a top 3 pick.

I doubt sports communication broadcasting requires intense studying and preparation.

You are right though. His improvement has been pretty amazing. My only concern would be that he also had a habit of disappearing in games in regards to scoring. Can he really be a 20+ ppg scorer in the NBA? He's probably going to be a good second option but a lot of teams can use that.

Oladipo would probably have a doctorate by then.

Rick Pitino was the absolute worst in that regard
and many other regards i suppose

Can someone explain to me the fascination over this Len kid from Maryland?

He has bust written all over him.

And I do not get why most of the draft boards I see now are showing McLemore dropping. I think someone is going to get a real nice player with him.

No way.

Jay Bilas is a hundred times worse. All he says are the same buzz words over and over.

Zeller at 4

He should be lucky to go in the first round after being exposed as a weak ass bitch.

I hope he goes to the Bobcats too. Bulls need them to continue sucking for next couple years so that pick stays alive.

With this draft I don't think any player will help that abortion of an organization.

Yeah that is a great pick to keep the Bobcats down. His ceiling is Eddy Curry. His floor is out of the league before next season starts.

Here's Bobcats recent draft history. Whole lotta bad...

2004 - Emeka Okafor #2
2005 - Sean May #13
2006 - Adam Morrison #3
2007 - Brandan Wright #8
2008 - DJ Augistin #9
2009 - Gerald Henderson #12
2010 - No Pick
2011 - Kemba Walker #9
2012 - Michael Kidd Gilchrist #2
2013 - ?

Okafor seemed like a bust at the time, but he's probably the best player they have ever drafted.

On a drunken train ride to the Cell, I nearly got into a fight for making fun of some dude wearing a Morrison jersey. Taking out that a basketball jersey shouldnt be worn in public ever, I think I was in the right for mocking said individual.

Three first round picks for two washed up stars? How do you not immediately jump on this? Even if you have to take back Gerald Wallace.

The Brooklyn Nets, in their latest ambitious move, are trying to construct a trade with the Boston Celtics that would enable Brooklyn to land star forward Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett, sources confirmed to ESPN.

The Nets are trying to tempt the Celtics with a package headlined by three future first-round picks that would also potentially include players such as Kris Humphries, Gerald Wallace and Tornike Shengelia. But sources told ESPN.com that no trade that would bring both Pierce and Garnett to the Nets could happen before July 10, the first date Pierce's 2013-14 salary could be included in the trade.

Yahoo! Sports reported the Nets' pursuit of Garnett and Pierce as a package. The New York Daily News reported earlier this week the Nets were chasing Garnett, who has a no-trade clause in his contract. Sources told ESPN.com the Nets hatched the idea of trying to acquire both Boston stalwarts in the same deal because Pierce's inclusion is seen as the surest way to convince Garnett to waive his no-trade clause.

Pierce has a team option for $15.3 million the Celtics would have to pick up by week's end for such a deal to have any shot in July. Because Pierce is making nearly $17 million this season, Brooklyn needs the deal to wait until after the start of free agency and the lifting of the league's annual moratorium on transactions July 10, since the $15.3 million figure is used in the trade.

Yet it's believed the Celtics would have reservations about taking on the final three years and $30 million owed to Wallace, given that the future first-round picks they'd receive from the Nets likely would be non-lottery picks. Sources say the Nets are trying to expand the deal to take on either Jason Terry or Courtney Lee to make the deal more enticing for Boston.


The addition of Garnett and Pierce to the trio of Deron Williams, Joe Johnson and Brook Lopez would appear to give the Nets one of the most formidable rosters in the NBA under rookie coach Jason Kidd.

Earlier this offseason, Boston denied the Nets permission to contact then-head coach Doc Rivers, who eventually left to coach the Los Angeles Clippers.

But the Celtics, now that Rivers has departed, are a team in transition that is said to be looking to accelerate the rebuilding process by chasing draft picks and trying to create cap space.
