Rip's gonna freak out if the Cavs end up taking Tristian #4 and they get Biyombo lol

 

[bestkeptsecret13]

Chicago may trade for Bill Walker..would love for that to happen

Where did you hear this and for what?

Where did you hear this and for what?

Realgm...supposed to be like the 30th for Bill Walker and 3 mill in cash. You know I love that deal for you guys. Walker>>>>anybody your targeting at 30

BREAKING: I was told by a trusted league source today at NBA Draft media day that Bismack Biyombo has a medical red flag with his back.

The source said they still expect Biyombo to be drafted either at 8 by the Pistons or 9 by the Bobcats, despite the back issue

If Biyombo slips past 9, he could easily slide to 19, or even further, a la DeJuan Blair when he had his medical red flag.http://twitter.com/TheHoopsReport

Wouldn't Biyombo be a perfect fit for New York at 17? They don't need him to score, hes mobile and can block shots/rebound. Perfect center to go with that team.

 

[The Young One]

Is Biyombo even tall enough to be a C? I thought he was like 6'8.

 

[DJT]

6'9" I do believe.

 

[elcheato]

He's 6'9 but he's got a 7'7 wing span.

A lot of these 'draft experts' on ESPN have been listing Norris Cole as a sleeper, hopefully they aren't jinxing him but I've been saying this ever since the college season ended lol

Oh for sure...

The only good 30th pick that I can remember is David Lee.

I love Bill Walker, not sure he'd get minutes if we still have Brewer/Korver in town, but just having him on the team would be nice for depth.

 

[RipCity32]

You will see such a rage by me if the Pistons draft Biyombo.

At this point, if we don't end up with Thompson on draft night, I will not be happy.

Wouldn't Biyombo be a perfect fit for New York at 17? They don't need him to score, hes mobile and can block shots/rebound. Perfect center to go with that team.

I think so. New York apparently likes him, I think they'd snatch him up at #17 if nobody else they want is available.

 

[The Young One]

I just wanna see rip flip a casket if Biyombo is the pick.

 

[RipCity32]

As you put, you won't see me for a little bit cause I'll be to busy killing everyone in the Piston front office.

 

[The Young One]

We'll be on a rampage together cuz if this Odom deals goes down..Im going off.

 

[elcheato]

The only situation that I would be pissed about for the Cavs is if they draft Enes Kanter #1 lol. I want Kyrie over D-Will but I can accept D-Will.

 

[The Young One]

I thought kyrie was already told he was the guy?

 

[RipCity32]

We'll be on a rampage together cuz if this Odom deals goes down..Im going off.

I can't even explain how mad I will be.

I'd rather take Jonas who won't come over for another year, than the shit ass, dirt POOR poor man's Ben Wallace.

 

[Elite]

I just wanna see rip flip a casket if Biyombo is the pick.

Him and DJT could go to the same psychologist, two for one discount

 

[elcheato]

Cavs aren't telling anyone anything and I'm guessing it has to do with having two top 4 picks.

 

[Mooche]

I thought I read that it was said Kyrie is the pick for sure? Hm. Probably a bad report.

I'm hoping for this kind of situation for the Raptors:

1. Brandon Knight
2. Enes Kanter
3. Kemba Walker

I'm fine with any of those guys.
