Elfird Payton is a ****ing stud.

If you step back and think about it you could look at like Riley was doing MJ a favor. The Hornets weren't going to take Napier they have Walker, Houston more than likely wasn't going to take him since they are trying to stash players then it was Miami's pick. They could have stood pat and got their guy possibly.

Just because he's a good college PG doesn't mean he'll be anything in the pros. Or anything that will keep LeBron in Miami when championships are on the line.

That's the way to do it. They are basically doing what OKC did years back.

Noel and Embiid, if healthy (and yes, this is a big IF), are probably the most talented young frontcourt since Hakeem and Ralph Sampson.

The 76ers are building a potential juggernaut. They'll likely suck this year, and if they can add a dynamic wing to shoulder the scoring load...gat damn.

Agreed, love what Philly is doing. It's the only thing to do really if you want to be better than mediocre. Wish my team had the guts to do the same.

Not a good shooter and slight of build. How does he hold up to the beating of going in the paint even if he is athletic enough to beat guys off the dribble?

They drafted Tyler Ennis

Which was their good pick, don't like the other two.

Do these work?

Agreed. Health concerns are obviously the issue... but you're right, they find a good wing player and they could give the East fits in a few years... even the Heat. Nobody will able to match up with them inside.

I can't believe the Thunder used both picks. I'd be happier had the got Anderson or Early. I just don't understand why you wouldn't trade a first rounder and get Afflalo instead of drafting 2 more guys Brooks won't play anyway. They are still acting like they are building a team not completing a championship team. There better be some more moves coming because this shit won't cut it.

Reading what Ainge and Stevens said tonight sounds like Rondo at the #1 and Smart at the #2. Which means Avery Bradley will most likely be gone.

Holy shit.

I agree with you.

I see Smart as a sixth man, but you need three guards, and Smart can theoretically play either position. There isn't a need to jettison Bradley just yet. Their biggest problem is that they need to blow it up, or they are going to win 30 games a year for 4-6 years.

sixers drafted half their roster in the second round
