it's going to take another 4 year rebuild to get rid of all the pieces that were selected for the last rebuild. good time to be a tigers fan. at least the pirates have good young players, lol.

im torn between the isles pick and the penguins missing the playoffs.

minnesota has saved lebron's ass. he's been shit for most of the overtime. how can the lakers not be able to inbound the damn ball?

its because their best player is the biggest pussy in the nba. where was kat? they switched reaves and even schroeder onto him and what did he do? fade to the corner. he didnt even bother to post up. he's the biggest pansy ass in the league. when the going gets tough, he does nothing.

this lakers game is an exercise in stupidity.

hawks win! hawks win! johnson scores an empty net goal with 50 seconds left to put the hawks up 3. crosby cross checks him after the play. why? because cindy crosby (and evgeni malkin) - despite being one of the most talented players in nhl history will always ALWAYS be a little bitch. always has been. always will be.

del, he's white. they cant interview a white coach. those guys cant win in this league...

holy cow. javy baez got a walk? miracles.

we are all hawks fans tonight. a hawks win makes pittsburgh less likely to make the playoffs and the hawks less likely to get conor bedard.

roquan smith went for a low second round pick. anything more than that is an overpay for white.

i mean...ANYTHING is possible. that would be extremely unlikely.

what about the past decade would lead you to take the pistons seriously as an organization?

i thought okudah was a good pick. wrong again.

i think they were always going to draft a db (or two). they dont have much depth there at all beyond this year. melifonwu has shown zero evidence he is an nfl player so far. not at safety and definitely not at corner. huge year for him and - if they draft multiple dbs - he may not even make the team.

kevin ollie? good lord, why?

if history is any guide, weaver has a 6'11 player who cant shoot up his sleeve... (that player is not victor, who hopefully is up the other sleeve)

no: bulls, celtics, memphis, clippers, minnesota, lakers. not really rooting for anyone.

okudah wasnt very good. good luck to him in atlanta. i wonder if things would have been different if he hadnt been injured? we'll never know.

speaking of oline, dan brugler has his top 100 out and his draft guide available on the athletic. its quite thorough and a good read. he has young 1, anderson 2, and carter 3. richardson is 13. skowronski is 7 but he has him as a guard, not a tackle.

hamadou diallo is the type of player who should always be renting...

the islanders losing is helping too.

im getting too excited about lombardi and mazur. but if either of those guys hits and becomes a major contributor, they are well on their way in the rebuild. now, just tank the last two games and then get a top 2 pick. simple!

they have until may to pick up his 5th year option. i doubt they do it. yes, he's been injured, but that can also explain his lack of performance (im not sure it does, but maybe). but regardless, he has been injured and may simply not be the same player physically he was when he was drafted. he may have lost more than a step because of his injury. a lot of the things i hear about okudah is that he lacks confidence and thinks too much rather than reacting. which is why i still think he could be a good safety. sitting back and watching things develop. he looked so good in the box against dallas which really helped their run defense that day, i have to think he might be in line for a position switch.

they have no guards signed past this year. IOL is a big need. same thing with cornerbacks. with okudah washing out they have little in reserve past this year. dt is also a need but less of a long term need because they have guys who can play multiple spots on the dline. but like you said, it is one spot where they have an immediate need for an impact player.

i trust holmes, so yes.
