Does Ralph Samson III get drafted?
Everything in the computer need my face on it. Mega Gigabytes, son!
If this isn't a (fruitless) "testing of the waters,"
his father ought to slap him.

I believe that he's being encouraged
to go out, go through exercises and tryouts with teams. It’ll give him some additional perspective on his game and if he can do anything to grow… you know like play a tiny bit aggressively.

If any of the stated positives come to pass
Then I’m all for it.

Dream pairing
Imagine Sampson and Darko on the floor together. It would be the friendliest front court in the NBA.
They have until June 13 to withdraw?
When is the Lottery?

Kyrie Irving
could do this franchise a big favor by dropping out of the lottery after the Wolves win it and explicitly stating that he would never play for a franchise with such an inept owner, front office, and coach.
Of course, he could also do the franchise a big favor by playing for them, but it’s selfish of me to wish for that outcome. Instead, I wish the best for him and hope he has the courage to Just Say No, to the Wolves.
I haven't written an insightful post in years.

Let's worry about that after the Wolves win it.
Everything in the computer need my face on it. Mega Gigabytes, son!
We get all the "What should we do if...?" scenarios out of the way before the lottery.
That way afterward we can focus on conspiracy theories and how the [rookie of the year]/[best player in class] often gets drafted 5th or 7th.
To everything
(Stern, Stern, Stern)
there is a season
(Stern, Stern, Stern)
And a time for the league to usurp us........it's a given.

Interesting stat...
…if true, maybe it has more to do with the organization drafted into than the player.
Think he has to commit before the lottery

May 8
Early entrant candidates have to withdraw by May 8 in order to keep eligibility.

That is what I thought.
That secondary date has more to do with European players typically.

Bad news. Rambis is still the coach.

Based on last season's result's
he is the coach In Name Only.
I assume that Taylor, Kahn, and Rambis know what they're doing.
Even at his age Rambis would probably be more valuable to to Wolves as a player than a coach.

Right! Rambis has a lot of potential, but we feel like he could develop his game better over there for a while.
That's right
just let the pus ooze from your collective lips. There, does that feel better now.
And consider, at the end of the day, your opinion doesn’t mean shit.
Dingus Kahn, it's over
I also hear that opinions are like assholes
and now they don’t mean shit????
We can’t have it both ways!

A kid Tony Ronzone "discovered" in Africa just signed with St Johns
However, my niece discovered him first while doing a semester in Africa. He emailed me video but it was just dunking and I was like, eh… He lived with their family here part time. Went to Erie CC and now is part of the # 3 recruiting class in the country. Pretty cool.

OMG!
I just figured out who you are:

I assume that Taylor, Kahn, and Rambis know what they're doing.
Wolves new slogan:
6 degrees of reclaimation.

That's good,
but I would also go with, “MMMMmmmmm . . . Bacon!”
I assume that Taylor, Kahn, and Rambis know what they're doing.
Wow Jim Dolan looked a lot like Kevin Bacon when he was younger
He sure has gone to pot since taking on the role of “uber rich, meddling, incompetent buffoon owner of the Knicks.”

What about Dan Kelm?
Probably the kid’s only chance to ever have his name mentioned in the national media. I am really surprised more guys don’t do this.
someone needs to give the players on our roster a report card grade.
Who stinks, who has no future, who preformed well, who is going to get better etc…
You missed it David (both of you)
Oceanary did a great job besides the low score he gave Pek

Do you have a link?
I would love to read this.
NO
You kind find it yourself by utilizing the search tool in the top right hand corner of the screen. Also you view past stories on the home page. Now fish!

I would rather you do this so I don't have to.
Does that make sense?
Yes it makes you lazy I gave you the tools you need.

I agree
Not enough time is spent evaluating players on this site.

I can not tell if there is sarcasm in this statement.
I frequent BlazerEdge a lot and they give mid yea and end year report cards to their entire roster. I haven’t seen anything like that over here.
Haha yeah sorry
lots of sarcasm. I think we all have a pretty good idea of where our guys would be, give or take a grade or two depending on the poster.
Mostly Fs. Couple Ds. Maybe a C or two. Love as a B to an A-.
