What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

Seeing Lindsey on the news last night, it looks like he sincerely hates the 5 spot. Jazz will trade up or down - I don't see them picking at 5.
 
supporting cast

How can the 'greatest player ever' be so helpless without all the help?

I hate the Lebron love almost as much as I hate the cavilers.

Which NBA great has been successful without a strong supporting cast? Bird, Magic, Kobe, M? No, no, no, no....

There has been no great player who has won a title without a very good supporting cast. The team that came the closest was the 1981 Houston Rockets with an extremely weak supporting cast around Moses Malone of Mike Dunleavy, Calvin Murphy, Allen Leavell, Robert Reid, Rudy Tomjanovich, and Billy Paultz. They lost to the Celtics 4-2 in the finals.
 
I consider the gap between Vonleh's and Derrick's defense smaller than the gap between their offensive games, when they were both Vonleh's age.

I agree

Troof. MJ is awesome but I can't believe how much people overlook how awesome his title teams were. Pippen (arguably best sf ever prelebron) Horace Grant, Rodman (one of the best rebounders ever) john salley, good shooters, etc.

I would put lebrons cavs team along with that 81 rockets team
 
The Kings put the No. 8 pick in the draft on the trade block immediately after the lottery Tuesday night, league sources told NBA.com, clearly looking to add at least one impact veteran in an attempt to push into the playoff conversation next season rather than wait for another rookie prospect to develop.

It was immediately unclear if the Kings have a specific target. But Dennis Schroder, the German point guard firmly behind Jeff Teague on the Hawks depth chart, could come up. Had McLemore been gone at No. 7, Sacramento would have looked hard at Schroder or at trading back.
