What's new

2011 draft.....

Brandon Knight has star potential, but he doesn't look like a guy that runs your team and that's what the Jazz need. He also looks every bit of a chucker if ever I've seen one, and unless he's making an absurd amount of his shots and/or using that to get better looks for team-mates, he might be the exact opposite of the player the Jazz need right now.

Kyrie Irving is the consensus #1 for a reason, and I don't think anyone else in this draft has the upside to lead a team to a championship more than he does, PG haters notwithstanding. Lottery gods, you owe us some **** for the cruel hand dealt in '79, last year (two teams leapfrogged), and '05.
Am I reading this right? You're looking for payback from 1979? Magic is a free agent now. Should we just sign him up?
 
Ok, but not anywhere near any of these intl players yall keep pimpin. I mean b knight played major minutes on a final four team and improved dramatically as the season progressed. Intl players are barely role players for their current teams.

That is because the intl players are already playing professionally against men in their 20s and 30s. Many teams also like to limit the minutes of the young guys to try to keep them from going to the nba.

If Vesley is an AK player, then wouldnt he be a no brainer at 12? I mean, from what I've read, he has a real passion for the game. I think AK use too to, but he got burnt out by Sloan and playing so much all year round.

Exactly if you knew he was as good as AK you take him before 12. Dont see him being as much as a shot blocker, but hopefully a better shooter. His 2pt fg% is 60. Still working on his 3pt games, but has been getting better.
 
There was a report it was cancelled, and then the league issued a statement retracting that. Barring a miracle settlement on June 30th (or shortly thereafter) it will undoubtedly be canceled.

Arent you confusing summer league and the DLeague? Could swear i read that DLeague has separate CBA so it would continue in operation.

No, summer league. I don't know what happens with DLeague, but I'm guessing those teams can play. They just wouldn't use players under NBA contracts. The league is trying to keep hope alive that Summer League won't have to be cancelled. But they're in July with the CBA set to expire July 1st. No CBA, no summer league.
