NBA Draft Open Thread (Not OT - Yay!)
Trey Burke will get traded to Portland !
I'm seeing Utah
and what kind of comment is this "I heard when Trey was younger, that he drew himself in an NBA jersey". Who didn't do something like that when they were a kid?
Burke to UTAH in the works.
Trey to Portland...I could hop on that train (this coming from a guys who is not NEAR the train stop in regards to the NBA).
Utah rumors but Yahoo reporting Portland. Yahoo broke the story on the Noel trade-
RT @WojYahooNBA: Trey Burke will go to Portland in a trade, league source tells Y! Sports.
Just realized how much I will miss him.
Funny cause the same guy just said two minutes before that Burke will go to Portland.
OMG - I'm literally going to throw up.
So did you?
Stern with the little hand gestures, egging them on. What the hell is he thinking?
But now it's just annoying
But expect Rubio will be the only marquee point guard in Minne by the end of the night.
Edit: Next Stockton. Screw the Timberwolves, go Jazz.
I am so confused
RT @WojYahooNBA: Trey Burke is going to the Utah Jazz in a trade, sources tell Y! Sports.
Not aware of Utah's PG situation, could Burke start right away?
Yes. The Jazz have a pupu platter of point guards; Mo Williams, Jamaal Tinsley, Earl Watson, and Randy Foye
- Mo Williams
- Earl Watson
- Randy Foye
- Alec Burks
There are minutes to be had in that rotation. As far as I know, Williams is an unrestricted free agent and hasn't signed.
Trey's on the phone, Beilein playing wingman. Something's going on.
Probably just ordering a pizza.
Naw, subs are on the way.
about a draft. Denard to the Jags pissed me off, but now that he is there and they are so high on him, it doesn't matter.
Utah is just...man. i'm so sad
...time to cut off and come back when THJ will be drafted. Maybe by then all of these trades will be worked out.
just described mccollum as "not just a shooter"...drink??
King Joeffry would do all grown up.
Jazz have some pieces. Favours, Kanter, Burks.... and a ton of cap space.
CRAZIEST DRAFT EVER!!!!
I was kind of hoping, though, that Burke would fall to my Sixers....replace Jrue with Trey.
Brandon Knight is our point guard. We just drafted him in the lottery. If you start drafting PGs all the time, you become the T-Wolves.
Now if they follow this up with Ray McCallum, I'll be pleased.
Brandon Knight is still trying to get up off the floor.
All the Pistons have outside of Monroe and Drummond are a bunch of SGs that they call point guards. Knight is a shooting guard, so is Stuckey. Dumars is a twat.
He plays the position, but he is not a PG.
But Dumars has always had something against small PGs. I think maybe he thought he was the NBA All-Star PG and some guy named Isiah got all the recognition so he takes it out on the little guys. Dumars is a fucking joke, period.
Why did the Pistons pass on Burke?!?
Because Dumars is a dumdum
This actually hurts. I wanted Detroit to take Burke more than any pick in my NBA existance. I actually like KCP a lot - was my second choice after Burke. But not thinking Burke would be available to having him there, ready to be a Piston for life (I'm optimistic), and making my son a Pistons fan for life as well....
And they passed. I'm sad.
Good luck Trey. Utah might be good for you if the rumors are true, but going to my absolute least favorite team makes me even less happy.
Can we have subs now? This is crazzzayyy.
PG is the most important position on the court. Unless you have a Lebron you need to have a PG on the court. But what has Joe done? Draft wings. I have no issue with the Monroe and Drummond picks. You need bigs. But the Pistons had a shot at a PG. As of now their plans are to move Knight back to a position he does not fit.
The Pistons have given their fans no reason to watch their product. This franchise will remain moribund for the foreseeable future.
Trey to Utah!!! That is a great place for him.
