@daniel
I sort of like both. I’ll admit, I’m a bit tired right now of all the draft stuff. But it’s the only info going on. I was energized after the lottery but now I’m wearing down.

I agree though, games are more fun. The offseason sucks. Good thing I like baseball.

15 days until draft day… sigh, when will this all be over?

I remember before the lottery thinking “man, I sick of all this speculation, I wish the lottery day would just get here and be done with”. But then others warned that knowing the draft positions wouldn’t stop the speculation but only fuel it further. And they were right. It’s only been worse since.

Now I’m thinking that knowing the draft picks will calm down the speculation. And I’m probably wrong. Because after June 25 and all the excitement (disappointment, whatever) dies down, then it will probably just start of fresh round of endless (mostly ridiculous) speculation about free agents and trades. Ugh. It. Never. Ends.

Some people just love all this speculation and guessing and formulating. It’s like a game. A really fun game of chess. But I don’t.

I like to watch our team play games. And then discuss with others what they did right/wrong. Watch or listen to interviews with players and coaches about particular games and what we can do to improve. Watch or listen to players and coaches talk about the organization, the local community, their own personal interests, etc. THAT is what I like. Not all the endless guessing about who might go where.

I’m frustrated out the wazoo.

@p Oh ok. I was afraid you were saying I was because I posted a Q&A. I'm indifferent on Mullens. I don't like projects at this point and I think you can get about the same quality of player at No. 25 as you can at No. 15 in this draft.

definitely not you royce.

but “Only chance the Thunder have of moving up in this draft is from #25 to #15 if they are willing to take on Amir Johnson’s contract with the Pistons in order to select BJ Mullens (see: Project) for down the road, as he’s 2 or 3 years away from contributing.” …

thats quite the reach! .. mullins might be 2 years away from contributing at ohio state.

& his name has been mentioned a few times lately

not really a good trade for the sixers imo …
kapono is no-doubt a top notch shooter. however, he does pretty much nothing else. it doesnt do much good to have a great shooter who cant really get open or create his own shot. they just have kyle korver all over again.
not to say these players aren’t good. but how do you stay on the court if you can only do 1 thing?
& they gave away their only real toughness.
