No one has done a better job of drafting in the past 2-3 years than Portland. Amazing young talent on that team.

I'm happy for Arthur that he got picked in the 1st round. I really hope that the whole medical issue was just a matter of teams being overly cautious and it amounts to a whole lotta nothing.

Portland gets a lottery talent at bargain basement prices. That team is going to be sick.

All the talent in the L didnt get the old PDX team anywhere though.

He said Lee is upset by it too.

I think it was the Knicks being vindictive again, chopping their nose off to spite their face. They didn't appreciate Lee blowing up the Memphis deal for the 5th pick.

Nice to see the level of class hasn't changed a bit under Walsh.



Our organization is Low Class.

It sounds like it. Wow what a way to start the new regime.

After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

i'm so tired of all this love for Lee... has the guy shown any signs of improvement since his rookie year? no. He can't shoot and he can't defend. I don't get the affinity.

So any reason given for Arthur dropping?

Memphis... going with DeAndre? Or they scared because they have the New Gasol?

One thing you know for sure is that Gus Johnson didn't come out with that news on his own. Gus is just MSG's button man. He doesn't say anything about one of their own without orders.

None supposedly, probably other than he shut down his workouts early in the draft process. He probably had an injury or a promise that didn't pan out.

I didn't hear it, all I know is Lee managed to turn himself from fan favorite to goat in a record amount of time. Not only that he managed to alienate himself from the regime AND really decrease his trade value in one stroke.

He had to have blood test according to what he told Stewart S. He said test came back fine but no one updated other teams about it.

Great value for Memphis. Memphis really needs some veteran guidance.

Probably did not want to threaten the new Gasol. But why take Green when you have Gay?
