[G.O.A.T]

So is there any team that would have won the lottery that people wouldn't think it's rigged/conspiracy?

Nope.

MCW can't shoot. He's the opposite of what they need.

and let's keep it 100. Kemba was Trey Burke 2 years ago. The only difference was that Kemba actually won the National Title. They clearly feel they have their PG and SF already set. No need to start messing shyt up unless you feel you'll get something amazing for Kemba.

Burke is not the same as Kemba coming out. Burke has a 3:1 Ast/TO ratio compared to Kemba @ 2:1

Burke is also must longer than Kemba (8'2 standing reach to 7'7) and for attacking PGs who like to get in the paint, standing reach goes a lot further than a vertical leap.

You're offbase on this... nothing shocking here. Burke is exactly what the Bobcats need right now.

Who said anything about the 3rd pick? I'm talking about the 4th pick for a team that's very much looking to try to deal it. Either way I don't see Charlotte considering Oladipo at 4 (they'd have other options there). A guy they may look at (guys like Len, Plumlee, Bennett, Olynyk), will be there at 9. If they wanna shed a shytty contract like Tyrus Thomas they can do that and still get their guy.

The problem is Kemba.

He's a sixth man on a championship team.

I think Oladipo would fit better there than most people.

Oladipo wouldn't be playing PG. He'd be their SG (which is fine, they could use one, though they might wanna bring back Gerald Henderson). It's not the best fit for reasons others have mentioned, and Cho has been looking at adding another big either through the draft or attempting to max out Josh Smith or Al Jefferson or someone like that.

and moving up isn't even ideally what I'd do personally. I just know Flip has a thing for Oladipo.

I know he's not pg, I'm just saying they shouldn't rule Burke out cause of Kemba.

Personally I think Bennett makes the most sense.

Nope.

The wizards. There is no storyline for that one

Bobcats need a starter who can hit the 3

Oladipo zero range

I'd draft Burke and just start my fail for wiggins

The draft is deep next year and the bobcats may have 3 lottery picks

Who is really endorsing the Bobcats to take Oladipo??

 

[Kang Deezy]

Wrong thread.

Since the lottery was implemented the Cavs and Bulls have won it 3 times each.

I smell a rat

But seriously tho...

• Bulls got the 1st pick when they got Brand and Rose and Jay Williams didnt they? (Or was Jay a #2 pick? Someone look it up)
• Cavaliers got it when they picked Lebron, Irving and now this one.

Appears as tho some franchises seem to be "luckier" than others

Still better than the NFL system but we may need another overhaul of the system kinda like what they did after Orlando got it twice back to back?

Jay Williams was drafted right after Yao in 2002.

There's people complaining that the Cavs won it 2 out of the last three years, so I'm sure theories would of been brought up if they had won it, being two out of the last four years

charlotte should trade their pick to the kings. package a SG in there.

that way the kings can get Anthony bennett. these mocks saying that the kings should draft trey are all we got lil' isiah wreckin shop already, and for cheap.

 

[CrimsonTider]

There was no real compelling storyline this year so maybe they just let it rock

that trade for boogie is a good play but its a bigger loss in the end because it'd be they say they arent trying for kang

Cleveland trading the pick is definitely a possibility

But I think another mediocre season, high draft pick, and saving their cap space for 2015 and praying for a Lebron return is their best bet

Irving, Waiters, Tristan, Noel, and another top 10 pick in a crazy draft next year could be very tempting to Bron

Kyrie is an excellent fit next to him

I think it'll all depend on Wade and how he holds up next year

But Noel not being ready right away will help Cleveland stay in tank mode... I'm with Walt tho, not huge on Noel...

As far as Celtics go, Shabazz, or a center

Why would Bron want to play them?

Taking a PG and SF in the next 2 years after picking a PG and SF looks so bad that Cho couldn't possibly keep his job
