Aron Baynes also plays for San Antonio.
Bulls picked Cameron Bairstow in the second round.
Regarding nicknames, we have a beat writer in OKC trying really hard to push "Stone Cold Steve Adams." This was after the same publication tried "Kid Kiwi." Terrible people.
salo you could have gone to the draft. It was in Brooklyn.
McGary already a cult figure on Thunder blogs after people realized he left school because he got suspended for failing a drug test. I expect an attack column from the local newspaper by September.

Hayward is the envy of every Starcraft player on the planet.

Charlotte really let out the red carpet for Hayward. Amazing they set up that welcome party. They must really want him.

Re: A new NBA thread (HYPER HYPED DRAFT SUPER EDITION)
I know the Jazz can't not match this, but wow this contract is so fucked up. The more i find out about it. Four years/63 million I can swallow--what else are we going to be spending the money on in the near future? And if he at least doesn't decline, that contract could become trabeable after a couple years. BUT. Not only. The contract also apparently has a trade-kicker and a player option. I almost want to watch this contract sink Jordan. But we just can't let him walk away for nothing. It's our ship, and we've got to go down with the ship.

They have to match. It sucks but whatever. No Hayward and it probably gets ugly for the Jazz. Stuck in limbo. With him they can still try to push for playoffs whenever the West calms the fuck down.

Re: A new NBA thread (HYPER HYPED DRAFT SUPER EDITION)
I know. We can't just let an asset we developed walk away. We're Utah--we can't afford that. The saving grace is it's only four years. We probably won't be too worried about that money for a couple years, anyway. What else are we going to use it on?
I kind of want to make Michael Jordan swallow his fucking contract though.

This Miami Heat thing is getting interesting. I hope it doesn't end with them all going back. I would love it if all 3 left. The drama!

Anyone see SportsCenter wedge two LeBron references immediately after the Germany-Brazil game yesterday? I mean the first two sentences both had LeBron references. Lindsay Czarniak saying "Brazil took a beating somehow worse than LeBron James did in Game 5 of the Finals," then John Anderson laughs and says something like "That game was almost as ridiculous as the idea of saying LeBron James is going to go play on the moon!"
It was incredible. Surprised DeadSpin didn't pick it up.

Also good on Cuban for sticking a fork in Morey's eye.

Re: A new NBA thread (HYPER HYPED DRAFT SUPER EDITION)
I'm fine with it now that Bosh is heading back to Miami instead of Houston. Would not want to deal with a Bosh / Howard front court.
I don't think this Cavs team will be as good as the 2014 Heat. Or maybe about the same. Kyrie's stagnated since he entered the league so there might be a good chance he can take another step and that will be important.
But it's the east so they are basically guaranteed to be int he finals.
Love Bosh getting to be the No. 1 guy again. They'll be a playoff team.
Hope Atlanta or Miami get Deng.

Re: A new NBA thread (HYPER HYPED DRAFT SUPER EDITION)
I also like that Bosh is staying in the east. That Houston is less nightmarish still is also good, assuming they don't land Kevin Love somehow.
I expect Kevin Love to be a Cavalier. Saw some headline that Cleveland is willing to let go of Wiggins already and that's a hell of a bartering chip.

Yes. Move them all to the East. I hope Bosh bought Houston dinner before he FUCKED them. lol.

LOL MARVIN WILLIAMS $7 MILLION A YEAR

People be getting paid this off-season. Sounds like Hornets gonna offer a Hayward-like contract to Stephenson.

According to my twitter feed, Exum is going to be "a STUD" following his summer league debut.

Summer league is just sadness where Jeremy Lamb shoots 12 percent from 3 against a bunch of guys who will never sniff a game in the NBA.
As a third year player.

Re: A new NBA thread (HYPER HYPED DRAFT SUPER EDITION)
I get excited for summer league and then I watch summer league and remember how horrible it is to watch. Exum looks really good but really young. I'm excited about his speed--his first step is like, I'm at the basket--and scared about his dribble.

Dante Exum highlights if anyone's interested in seeing the best aussie in world history.
