The 2014 NBA Draft Lottery Thread

[Malta]

The Bucks and Sixers are rebuilding. They don't give a fukk about any vet. Love, Horf, etc.

The Cavs do. one of those players is not the others. When you say LMA or Love, I think Horf is better. When you say Davis. I think Davis is better than Horf, Love, and LMA. One of those players is in the class with Durant and James. Love, Horf, and LMA aren't. Horf is one of the best most unappreciated players in the NBA and it's all because he doesn't create his offense and an elite or very good level. Although he is a superior movement player, he can shoot, he can team defend better than big not named A. Davis in the NBA. He can pass. He can run the court like a gazelle unlike Love who has a major issue with that. He is constantly out of position for the Hawks. The most underrated player I've seen in the NBA. No one comes come. No one.

I agree about the NBA marketing Love more than any big in the NBA. It's not even close. Even D12 don't get Love's love anymore.

That's all good, but around the league Love & LMA have higher values than Horford The Cavs offered a ton for both players last year, they never even thought about making the offer for Horford and I think he's a good player but expecting the number 1 pick for him is a bit much.

Deron(Utah), Melo(Den) and CP3(N.O.) have been offered in the past for Horford. The problem was Atlanta only wanted to offer Joe or Josh Smith and no one wanted Josh Smith for those players. Joe was wanted but not for those players either.

Horford value is much higher than you are giving note to. Much higher. Especially LMA who's value has never been as high as Horf till this year which was a career year for LMA.

We could just break down their games and impact...

At the end, I will promise you Horford is the best player. 10/10 times. I will promise you that.

why is this still pinned?

and I'm still not sold on Stauskas.

He can play. His worst case scenario is becoming a more athletic Korver. Best case is an efficient 20 ppg scorer at his peak with very good passing ability.

Stauskas doesn't have the upside of guys like Lavine, but he's a sure thing, in my opinion.

Nik looks like Klay Thompson to me, which is a good thing.

Stauskas got that Larry bird shot: barley no elevation, all wrists and so effortless
