It's amazing how getting the 1st pick in the right draft can change your future. Unlike Toronto and Milwuakee. :(

The NBA Draft, by far, is the most significant draft in sports. It's way more important than the NFL Draft, and they talk about that BULLSHIT for months on end... uggggggghhhhh. In the NBA, a bad draft pick can really set your franchise back for YEARS. Literally. Just look in the recent past:

Milwaukee trades Dirk for 'Tractor' Traylor: Milwaukee hadn't been shit since. Dirk is currently in his second NBA Finals.

Atlanta chooses Marvin Williams over Chris Paul and Deron Williams: Ironically, they've been a good PG away ever since.

Detroit chooses Darko Milecic over Carmelo Anthony: The Pistons had a championship squad when this happened. Now they resemble the city: bombed out and depleted.

Portland chooses Greg Oden over Kevin Durant: Oh, Portland...

Chicago chooses Derrick Rose over Michael Beasley: People forget how close this was. The Bulls DESPERATELY needed a low-post PF or C, and Beasley looked like a Derrick Coleman 2.0 coming outta college. One is the current MVP, the other is...

Michael Beasley.

The Spurs draft relative unknowns: Every year it seems, San Antonio drafts key player with the little draft room they have. Ginobili and Parker to be specific, are All-Stars and Champions, with Manu being drafted 57th overall.

Minnesota has fucked themselves more than they've been fucked. 3 point guards in the first round? Trade Brandon Roy to Portland for Randy Foye?? Ray Allen for Starbury?!?! Cmon. Not to mention the Garnett giveaway.

Zolf, you're such a fucking talking head. Shut your trap about things you know nothing about. You ever even played ball? :1orglaugh


As far as the Wolves, no doubt we discussed their poor management earlier this year but stuff like O'Neal and getting very poor #1 picks but also drafts like '93: http://nbahoopsonline.com/History/Leagues/NBA/drafts/1993.html and '94: http://nbahoopsonline.com/History/Leagues/NBA/drafts/1994.html and '99:
http://nbahoopsonline.com/History/Leagues/NBA/drafts/1999.html

Not to mention shit like that little prick Rubio pulling his stunt. As far as Garnett we got Al Jefferson and it was clear Garnett was a prima-donna asshole who wanted out. The organization has consistently gotten the short end just as much as any other organization.

Remember, though, we did have a pretty good run there a few years with the "big three" but that was about it.

I have to believe Lebron is extremely pissed at the way he played last night. 8 points is inexcusable. Probably the worst game of his career. If he gave us 15 the Heat easily win that game.

Miami will win game 5 easily. Wade, Lebron, and Bosh will all score 20+.

He has a triple double but he is over-fucking-rated.

Ask yourself this:

If Miami had Dirk instead of Lebron would they be better or worse? Makes you think. ;)

Meanwhile, Bosh looks like a crackhead who can't hit a FT for his life. :shocked:
