PORTLAND IS BACK!!! Not that I care, but dang they got the best news every. With that young group, they are primed to be a future Title contender.

Can't really say they're back until they get rid of Z-Bo somehow.

This is great news for Isiah. Zach will really shore up our frontcourt.

Sh-t in the popcorn to go with sh-t on the court. Its a theme show like Medieval times.

Stern is probably sitting there like "damn it. I knew I should've rigged this one."
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

KNicks win Knicks win. Man oh man thank god Isiah you just won the lottery. Portland and Knicks will one day face each other in the finals within the next 3-5 years. Lets al pray Isiah doesn't play this card again.

That shot of the Celtics Viewing Party was awesome. The guy looked suicidal.

That was pretty damn funny.

Can't wait for Bill Simmons' blog of the Lottery tomorrow.

Let the conspiracy theories begin... "Stern keeping the Celtics out of the top three to send a message to tanking teams"

Who do you take if you're Atlanta?

Do you semi reach for Conley to make up for not taking Paul or Deron when they had the chance or do they take Horford?

Btw, the biggest losers on draft night are the New York Knicks. Giving up the #1 was our best shot to get rid of Isiah. Now we're ****ed.

Chicago is now more than likely to trade the pick based on reports last week in search of low post help. T-Wolves announced KG ain't going nowhere and Indiana lost their pick to Atlanta (who are also looking to pawn off the Indiana pick). I can see Indiana trading O'Neal for the 9th pick or else, Bird and Walsh managed to do a worst job than Isiah. Al Harrington is playing in the Bay area while you gave up a lottery pick for him.

Gotta love it, the guys who were most adamant about the Knicks having nothing to lose with the Lottery outcome are the same ones coming out with the "WHEWS!!"

Hmmm, I thought the Knicks had nothing to lose?

I think the phew was for not having to deal with the Curry vs Oden or Curry vs Durant threads incase it did happen.

Celtics. Somewhere in Kentucky, there is a nasty grin on a little man's face.

Knowing them they screw up and trade down 1 spot too many and end up drafting the biggest bust in the draft. And Conley turns into the next great PG.

Atlanta should trade their 3rd pick to the celts for #5 and draft conley who is a reach at 3 and get a future 1st round pick from the celts or a pick swap...

Portland should trade Oden to a team that matters.

Celtics are desperate but they aren't that desperate especially in the weak atlantic.
