    lol so if the clippers get past the jazz they most likely face the Warriors, would that be considered a long playoff run?

    Probably if they dont at least make the west finals. Which they wont barring major injuries.

    CP3 and Blake most likely staying so who would they get rid of?

    Phil took a shot at the Bulls too. Basically said look at the Bulls, its been 20 years and they aint been ? since I left. For no reason too.

    Bulls went 62-20 in 2011 lost to the heat in the ecf

    Next season lockout season 50-16 in a 66 game season.Rose tears acl in game 1 of the playoffs.Chapter closed cuz the 23 year old franchise player went from mvp to humpty dumpty.Knicks aint been ? since reggie miller eliminated them in the '00 ecf & haven't won a title since 1972.

    The bulls were contenders wit a solid core but bad luck bodied it.From layden to zeke,to larry brown to marbury to melo to phil knicks been consistent trash and an embarrassment this millennium.Not comparable

    Sixers should draft that kid monk.He reminds me of ben gordon catch n shoot,move without the rock,instant offense.I saw a couple games in the tourney and he was killin.I think he'd be a good look wit simmons runnin pg.

    If they don't go guard, i wouldn't be mad if they took Tatum from Duke or Isaac from Florida State. If they do go guard Monk would most def be a good look. That kid gets buckets. That Lakers pick is huge. If Philly lands 2 picks in the top 8...

    QONVIyz.gif

    Tatum is at the top of my wishlist but doubt he's still on the board if we end up picking 5-7. We need a go to scorer on the wing. Him and AG would mesh really well

    Monk is a perfect fit for y'all tho. Simmons is running the point next year and you need a shooter that can operate off of the ball and that's exactly what Monk is. It makes too much sense not to happen. My only concern with Monk is his lack of length and strength. He's also a little hesitant attacking the rim.

    Tatum is projected to go 5-6

    Joe Johnson, george hill, shelvin Mack, Boris Diaw have though and they are all rotational players

    Your point is overstated, clippers trash, Jazz in 6. Clippers outgunned and austin rivers iirc might not even be there to play this round. Who picking up the slack? Jamal crawford and wes johnson? Raymond Felton? Oh nah I know, Paul pierce

    FOH

    There still is a possibility the Sixers could move Okafor to find a better fit for the center, who has found himself as the odd man out among bigs

    "The dynamic has changed with the trade of Nerlens," Colangelo said. "The emergence of Richaun has continued to impress all of us. … You would argue we haven't missed a beat since that move. Richaun has shown us great promise and probably without that confidence in Richaun, maybe we don't make that move."

    Where's O.G?!
