I swear the second round reminds me of trading baseball cards when I was a little kid and then having somebody try to report what is going on. Ohhh gotcha. ESPN just sucks.

Premium Member JayBirdHawk Posted June 27 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 27 Quote "54th pick. We renew the Cold War between the Celtics and the Lakers. The Boston Celtics take Bronnie James and send a ransom note to the Lakers: 'We have your son. We have your son. If you want him back...If you want him back, it's gonna take Austin Reeves'"- Tim Legler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's all the confusion about lol Why we didn't do this in a position where consideration was MUCH more warranted for the switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkish Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 Solid looking 2nd round pick — I like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wanted this pick because he has a great chance of keeping his euro contract with Mega Basket and Hawks just use the rights. They never intended to bring him over. It's a way of converting AJ into thin air plus the cash needed to swap. Why the 43rd pick? Because this guy has a better chance of getting a euro contract and they won't feel bad when they just keep his rights only.. ALA Alpha Kaba.

Yeah I don't get why they HAD to move up 1 spot to get this guy. Probably because they somehow screwed up and showed their hand and MIA caught wind? Like drying....

Moderators AHF Posted Thursday at 11:28 PM Moderators Report Share Posted Thursday at 11:28 PM Just now, Peoriabird said: Here we go again...Can't get enough of those wings There is a difference between garbage wings and good wings. We had lots of garbage wings last year. Our roster right now has the following quality wings: Bogi Risacher Hunter I'll also throw an asterisk by Bufkin in the event that he can matchup with some SGs defensively (unlike DJM who is a PG and not a wing). I do not count Mathews, Matthews, Landry, DJM, or Bufkin as quality wings. We don't actually have much depth there even after taking Risacher. (PF also remains shallow). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m thinking they targeted him as someone that stands out as not needing to make his NBA debut this year and they didn’t feel like there were enough options after that. then again they could be in love with his game and ready to get him over here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KB21 Posted Thursday at 11:36 PM Popular Post Report Share Posted Thursday at 11:36 PM OK. I’m back from the hospital. My son had a prolonged seizure yesterday and we ended up with an overnight stay at the hospital for observation. He’s home now and doing well. Lost the bet because Memphis is stupid and decided to panic reach when they couldn’t get Clingan. I honor my bets though even though my scouting on Edey is 100% correct and it took a team run by fucktards to take him for me to lose that bet. Risacher is a great fit for the team even if I’m lukewarm on the talent. You can get a glimpse for what Quin wants by looking at our last two drafts. I love the Djurisic pick. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife and I adopted him in 2020 as a newborn. He was born with a genetic disorder called Trisomy 13. It’s also known as Patau Syndrome. Don’t google it because it will scare the shit out of you. He will be four next month. He’s already beaten the odds for most kids with this disorder. Part of this disorder is seizures. He has baseline seizures that last around 10-20 seconds that don’t cause any issues. Sometimes though, he will have clusters of them with some being more prolonged. He will stop breathing with some but the breathing spontaneously returns. We have O2 at home for when that happens. The one he had yesterday though lasted around 10 minutes. I had to give him his rescue medicine to get it to stop. 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
