    Always knew Drummond would be a beast, should have never slipped that far down the draft.

    Didn't put up the best numbers at UConn(that was a bad year for them too) but he was super young, still 18 when he got drafted.

    My brother who is a Sacramento fan was spewing that the Kings took Thomas Robinson > Andre Drummond that year.

    Imagine Drummond and Cousins as a frontcourt... wow

    I'm a month and a half older than Jahlil Okafor and I find that scary. :shoocked:

    Last couple of years have been depressing with that realisation that I will never become a professional athlete. :sad1:

    @Big Mitch Your boy Gerald Green is having some issues.

    sportsposters Miami Heat SG Gerald Green has been admitted to the hospital for an unknown illness. TMZ is reporting that Green was acting strange in the lobby of his condominium, screaming at the top of his lungs. TMZ also reported that there was a huge commotion and it took several people including emergency personnel to restrain Green and get him on a stretcher and into an ambulance.

    Stevens needs to put Thomas into the starting line up. Hopefully tonight isn't just a one time thing. He is playing well. This dude has the potential to be an all star in this eastern conference. Needs to start to develop into what he truly can.

    Agree. He's never really been given a fair chance to run a team and an offense. He's a great spark off the bench but I don't see any harm in giving him a legit shot to start.

    Some bold predictions for this season:
    Thomas will be an all star.
    Orlando makes the playoffs.
    Milwaukee wins 50+ games this season.
    Thunder/Cavs Finals
    The Kings will grab the 7 or 8 seed.
    Rondo will come back to form (kinda). This dude took on a prime LeBron/Dwade duo and came close to coming out on top. Clearly hes not that player anymore, but I'm predicting a solid 10 & 8-10 with his usual 5 boards on the season for him.
    Warriors run out of gas towards the end of the season.

    MVP: LeBron James/Russell Westbrook
    DPOTY: Anthony Davis would be a safe pick. Leonard would probably be even safer.
    ROTY: Karl Anthony Towns. Under the wing of the goat KG
    6MOTY: Joakim Noah
    MI: Andre Drummond
    COTY: Brad motherfucking Stevens.

    Ya I wouldn't mind him and Smart starting together. Smart can defend multiple positions and they need scoring in the starting line up(they haven't gotten any in the first 3 games)

    I think we need to move Bradley. What are your thoughts on that?

    I'd like to move Zeller and Turner, they aren't doing anything but causing a log jam in he Celtics rotations.

    Celtics don't have many guys who can go off for 20+ and Bradley is one of them.

    Yeah, I'd only like to keep him strictly for his defense. He is one of those guys who could very well go out and drop 20+ then the next night drop 3. He also, is however, the type of player to impact the game in just about every other way besides scoring. (Mostly his perimeter defense.) I do think though, that scoring wise, we'd be better off with Turner. He really has not been playing well though.

    I believe Thomas could be a 25+ guy this season.

    Turner is a better ball handler/passer then Bradley, but Bradley is a much better scorer. Inconsistent at times, but so is Turner and a lot of the guys on the team.
