Infinit Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 What about the Eastern Conference finalist Raptors with a top 10 pick? Thank you Knicks!!!

Cole Miner Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 NBA.com has the video up of the actual drawing itself. Hopefully this will finally shut up the fools that think it is rigged. http://www.nba.com/video/channels/draft/2016/05/17/2016-draft-lottery-drawing.nba/
evilwaldo Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Remember when Bill Simmons postulated they dinged one of the cards against the opening when they placed it inside? Nah, people will still find a way to complain. It is 'The Way of the Internet.'
Death From Above Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 "This draft wasn't rigged so nothing else in the NBA was ever" is the most Russian bunch of bullshit I will read all month and there's an athletics scandal going on in Russia right now. 7
evilwaldo Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 The odds of accumulating the picks Cleveland received between the time LeBron left and his return tosses every non-rigged excuse out the window.
Niners Fan in CT Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 For the record, I don't think the draft is rigged but I do think Lakers/Kings was. 2
Shadow Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Let's all be real here. The 76ers won the lottery, but the real winner here is Brandon Ingram. 1
Josh Mann Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 To be fair I think they have at least three head coaches on the books at this point. AND whatever Phil is pulling down.
Brian Fowler Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 I don't think it would be a bad hire, just that came out of nowhere.
Josh Mann Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 There was literally nothing from his tenre in Phoenix that was beyond "just OK". And now he is going to a pressure cooker environment and will do so running an offense he never ran in Phoenix. How can this go wrong? 1

Josh Mann Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 "Sick Boy has always been lacking in moral fiber" "He knows a lot about Sean Connery" "That's hardly a substitute" 1
Shadow Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 This has nothing to do with anything with the NBA, but it's the best thing I'll see all week. 3
Lawful Metal Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 Yeah well the Rockets whose problem all year was defense are apparently set on hiring noted defensive guru Mike D'Antoni.
Spritenaut 32 Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 I want to see DNA results and dental records before I believe Hornacek is becoming the Knicks' coach. I assume Phil signed off on this, so I'm not ruling out that it's really Kurt Rambis in a Jeff Hornacek suit. D'Antoni getting another head coaching gig is a big of a head scratcher. I don't have anything against him although my wife thinks he feigned interest in the Marshall job a couple years ago to get his no-experience brother, Dan, the job. She's an alum and deeply bitter about that.
Charlie M. Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 Yes! The odd Skiles departure makes more sense now.
Jiji Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 I could see the Magic being the new Raptors. Good solid team in the regular season that won't be able to match the top dogs because they lack the elite player (though Lowry has finally shown glimmers of that).

I sort of love the logic here. It's a concession that James Harden will never ever play any defense, so you may as well play fast enough that he scores 45 a game to kind of counteract that?
Kuetsar Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Heat assistant David Fizzdale is the favorite for the Grizzlies job. . .
