NBA Draft

[superjohn]

My dream for the Knicks: trade Melo to the Lakers for #2 and draft whoever from Towns/Okafor is available. Then at 4, take whoever from Mundiay/Russell is available. 2/3 of a triangle offense at rookie salary.

My dream for the Knicks: Dolan sells the team.

He can pass, I agree. You said any team would want him at the 4. Really? Your statements are ridiculous. You're some authority. I doubt there are 5 NBA teams that would start him at the 4. He benefits by being in the most unique system in the NBA. They play like no one else in the league.

Well he also said Drayman Green could only play for one NBA team, yes a PF that can dribble, pass, shoot, and is one of the best defenders in the league can only play for one team. Oh, and that he would take Jared Sullinger over him, his basketball opinions are pretty much null and void from here on out.

You realize saying every team would want him doesn't exactly mean starting him, right? And now you dig further into the nonsense with the no team plays like GSW. There aren't teams as good as GSW and that have their talent, but to say no one tries run an offense with passing, cutting, screening and 3 point shooting further exposes that your basketball opinions are just completely off the wall.

 

[JSM1970]

Ok, you also said he's worth max money. So teams would pay him max $$ as a 6th man?

Ok, I think you've admitted your original statements were baseless.

We agree, he's good in the Dubs system.

I think Carmelo is pretty much untradeable since he signed a 5 year extension last fall. Who would want to take that on?

This is just a ridiculous statement.

Please quote where I said he was worth max money, please quote that specific post for me.

[JSM1970]

Based on what? Few other teams would want him as their 4, they wouldn't. But whatever, you can play GM.

The one poster said every team would want him as their 4 and then recanted to say as a 6th man at max $$. That's plausible.

This is just a ridiculous statement.

That would be hilarious to see him and Kobe on the same team. And Carlos Boozer.

...and now you're just typing up random nonsense, you should really sleep off whatever you've been drinking(or smoking).

People on this board love to attribute statements to posters who never made such statements. There is a new poster who continually does it to me, better to just ignore them.

BY Rule of Thumb No. 582B: if everyone else tells you that you're wrong and you can't find one person who agrees with you, you're wrong. I feel like that might be applicable here.

 

[gtcam]

Translation: don't pay attention to anything I say about the NBA.

You'd rather have Jared Sullinger than Draymond Green? Your opinion officially doesn't count.

Translation: Green and Sulli a 2 completely different players so anyone comparing them or commenting on comparisons doesn't have an opinion that counts

Not many teams want a one dimensional prima donna who refuses to play defense and basket hangs - what there is no zone in the NBA?

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Hezonja has superstar potential.

I remember when they were saying that about Darko Milicic.

Go back to sleep.

 

[JSM1970]

I said Green was a great effort guy and great in their system.

You said "every" NBA team would want him. I think that is an irresponsible comment, at least 15 teams have better 4s for their system or in general, maybe more.

I like his game a lot, he's high energy, but you need other parts for him to be effective. The joke about him being able to play 5 positions is just that. Mozgov worked him hard. A healthy Kyrie would embarrass him too. But he made some great plays late defensively.

His game is nothing like Darko's, why bring him up? If you brought him up because they are both white and from former Yugolsavia then why not bring up Drazen, Peja, Kukoc, Vlade. Mirotic etc.

You're pretty foolish if you think there isn't a spot on the roster for every team in the league for a guy like Draymond Green. So that's two things you decided to misquote me on, (1) that I said he was worth a max contract, and (2) that he would start at the 4 for every team. Next time you should take your time and read to avoid looking like a clown.

 

[Dooley]

My dream for the Knicks: Dolan sells the team.

Yeah, that too.

 

[JSM1970]

Not at max. $$ there isn't. Yes, I'm sure the Cluppers would love his energy off the bench to spell Blake. But at what price?

Also, you said both of these things. But no one can challenge your statements or ever offer a competing opinion. You just start an assault of insults.

QUOTE THEM. I said neither of those things, and this is now the 3rd time I have asked you to quote them, are you going to post them, or are you going to continue to say I said them with no proof? You goshdarn right i'm going to insult you when you continue to post nonsense attributing quotes to me that I haven't posted. You're a special brand of stupid that I've never seen on here.

 

[JSM1970]

I will find both, when I have time.

They were separate posts. In one you said any team would want Green and another you said he was a max. player.

My bad if I didn't realize you meant he could be a backup. I've never seen a NBA team offer a max. deal to a backup. That's fine, you obviously weren't an Econ major.

I said nothing about him starting for every team(your OG point) and made no mention at all about max money, that is the 3rd time I asked and you still couldn't come up with anything. I will end the back and forth now because you might legitametely have a learning disability. No point to even engage you on your other points because I'm sure you'll manage to make up another fake quote that you will attribute to me, then play dodgeball when I call you out on it.

This is the perfect excuse for "I made up that you said something and cannot find it"

 

[JSM1970]

He said any team would want him in this thread and in another that he was a max player. It was one rating some players. I'll find it and post.

Green is being abused. When the games get tight and half court in playoffs a 6-7 4 becomes a liability. He's overmatched.

The whole thread started comparing Winslow with Green. That an undersized guy could play the 4.

instead of talking about finding it and posting it why dont you just do it. you look foolish

From a Grantland article, just today, bold is my emphasis.

“He is definitely a Chicago kind of guy. This is no reflection on Kevin Love, but every team wants a Draymond Green. He has internalized the parts of the game that are the winning parts: the hustle, the grit, the defense, making the right play at the right time. I love that guy. I’m glad he’s on our team.”

 

[nomar]

Bump.

Draymond Green only has a triple-double in Game 6 of the NBA Finals because he plays for GS. Sullinger could have duckcked around and got a quadruple-double.

 

[James]

the assertion that sullinger is as good or better than draymond green is up there man , the only thing more outrageous was when a poster claimed they wanted okwandu over cousins. yes that really happened in 2013
