Last ten #27 picks


Jordan Crawford
JuJuan Johnson
Arnett Moultrie
RUDY GOBERT
Bogdan Bogdanovic
Larry Nance Jr
PASCAL SIAKAM
Kyle Kuzma
Robert Williams
Mfiondu Kebengele


Not too bad....

By George, I think he's got it. 

Which is why you do not package players and our two first round picks for LaMello Ball. 

For Zion Williamson?  You fucking bet. 

For Jah Morant?   Mmmmm, sure, he has an all-around game with no holes. 

Sure things.  BOOM. 

At #3, our RJ showed flashes of brilliance, while in other aspects, a work in progress. 

LaMello a first rate facilitator, but defense and long range shooting up for grabs.  BOOM OR BUST,  Not bust, but boom?  A work in progress.

Would I roll the dice on him with a top 3 or top 6 pick (presuming the unlikely drop down the draft board)?  Sure. 

I have a feeling that if the Warriors have the #1, the smart money says Edwards, but I don't see it.  Great prospect, but on the Warriors, Ball wouldn't have to be a sharpshooter right away, and he could work on his offense AND defense in a nurturing, disciplined environ.

Not giving up on that Barrett may be better than Marant

If Warriors want back in the NBA Final 4 maybe they deal with Knicks - give us the top pick for our two picks and usable talent, offset by some future talent coming back our way as well.

Mohegan Sun, Las Vegas

24 courts built, 5 for TV coverage

All 30 teams' players, coaches and execs (and I assume media) housed there for the duration of THEIR remaining season.

Nobody leaves the complex

Sound good?

Nobody leaves the complex for how long?

Since I'm sure this isn't in the CBA, would you just need to union to vote in favor? Could players opt out?

But it's not like you can have zero contact with the outside world.
How about if the virus gets in to where everyone is hunkered down?

Sounds sketchy unless you're just running a 2 or 3 weeks round-robin tourney.

What happens when Rudy GoBear tests positive again?

That'd be the end for his whole team, I would think (they'd all need to be quarantined).

Seems like the same situation where one player tests positive and the whole league is stymied.

I also don't think the players would agree to it.

Uh-oh:

Researchers at the Washington University School of Medicine gave young mice a single injection of the gene that makes follistatin, a protein that normally blocks another protein called myostatin, which modulates muscle growth. The therapy caused a significant buildup of muscle mass in the mice while also preventing obesity, the team reported in the journal Science Advances.

“We've identified here a way to use gene therapy to build muscle quickly,” said senior investigator Farshid Guilak, Ph.D
