The 2014 NBA Draft Lottery Thread

[Brozay]

getting it in, I equate to starting and scoring twenty two a game, for taj gibson.
which he won't do in sac-town,
plus, does not have the possibility to do.
that create a character roster shyt, works for thibs.
we talembout taj in sac-town.
taj, is just a character guy to meld with basket case.
which personally, is not worth no 8th pick in the draft.
I don't care how many fourth quarters.
the bulls got you bulls fan to emotionally in this past season.
bulls should have tanked, period.

bulls, on that carni bullshyt like the bears and cubs.
I ain't goin!

Dont put the Bears in the same sentence as the Cubs man, cmon now

If you believe that you dont know basketball. Hasheem didnt have a tenth of embiid's offensive repertoire. With a clean bill of health he would be the clear cut #1 prospect.

What are you basing this on?

If Embiid stays healthy, his floor is a quality starting center, which Thabeet is not

Lol I knew someone would misconstrue my post

IF he stays healthy brehs, IF

But for a dude who played less than 24 min a game in college to be having back problems this early is not a good look.

I based my Thabeet comment on his bust potential. That injury INCREASES those odds.

dawg...
you guys have the last good coach with experience who knows what he is doing.
you guys are fine.
plus, real talk...
the pistons could swag and get the eight pick, too.
the draft is deep and the pistons could do a lot between now, and next season.
plus, the division is weak as hell.
where svg, has the best results as a coach.
plus, depth in a division that is huff as hell.
just have patience.

how do you complain and you got :

STAN VAN GUNDY and a roster

You don't know the legacy of bullshyt he has to get over....Joe Dumars era is still here. And it's the PISSSSTONS we are talking about here. We might as well be talking about the Lions too.

Thabeet didnt bust because of injuries, he busted because he sucks

I could see if you said Oden... but you didnt

that is the the thing.
he does not have a clean bill of health, though.
nor, is he as good as oden was.
only thing that aids him is, there are really no big's in the nba.
outside of a few guys.....
yet, and still.
it is all wait and see.

I KNOW breh. His bust potential has nothing to do with his talent level being anywhere close to Thabeet's lack thereof.

I just don't see dude being the next Hakeem being injury prone so early in his career. In limited minutes at that.

The bust potential is high with him based on that alone.

Exactly man. Sometimes these dudes just be pulling comparisons out they ass. Embiid Is very talented whereas thabeet was extremely raw

pistons have shown,...
in the past decade, plus.
that when they make a real move to get right.
they do extremely well.

you have a defeatist attitude, stop being negative.

Art, you're an idiot. You have not watched embiid to draw that conclusion.

@Malta please come here and let these kids know bout embiid. They think oden was way better

nikkas read into EVERYTHING on here.

Nobody is talking about Embiid being the next Thabeet because he SUCKS like him.

But anyone who drafts him is taking a bigger chance than normal based on his INJURY SITUATION.

A back injury for a big man is a death sentence in many cases. Especially for a dude who clocked less than 24 mins a game in college, on a lighter schedule than he'll see in the league. Can you honestly picture dude playing close to 30 a night in a 82 game season, bangin in the post against STRONGER, more athletic players and staying healthy?

 

[GoldenGlove]

@ Kings fans saying they would be down for a Taj trade for that that pick but dudes who don't even follow Sacramento in here saying "nah".

Man...

I've been a Piston fan all my life....I'm not being defeatist or negative...I'm being a Piston fan right now..we are like this! LOL Joey D fukked us over in many drafts and left us with a team that couldn't make the playoffs in the EAST! With all the weapons we had this year.....I'm just sayin..lol Josh Smith pullin threes!!!! Help me Lord!!

nikka, i watched embiid all year, and have numerous post on embiid.

first off, if bird and tmac succumbed to back injuries.
plus, dwight howard was slowed from back surgery.
when, dwight howard has a real actual lean nba ready physique.
how in the fukk are you not raising a realistic question about embiid.

Dawg, I know exactly what u saying but thabeet wasnt derailed by Injuries. So the comparison is dumb off rip. If he gets hurt, he might have them oden issues, but not sorry ass thabeet.
