Ep. 168: Karma’s a Bitch

But don’t fret Memphis and Boston fans — 7 foot beasts with a 39-inch vertical are overrated anyway.

On today’s show, Skeets and I discuss the NBA draft lottery. What will Portland do with #1 pick?; does the possibility of Kevin Durant at #2 save the franchise in Seattle?; the nasty luck for the Grizzlies and Celtics; lots of your mail on the topic; and much, much more…

    Another eason good things come to teams that play hard: Blazers had a chance to improve their lottery odds on April 14th with a loss against Seattle, who both had the same record. The Blazers play hard and get the win 108-102, consequently getting Greg Oden.

    Also, i dont see why everyone wants to trade Zach Randolph right away. Can you think of a better low post player to teach Greg Oden how to operate in the post? Tim Duncan may be a better PF, But Z-bo, as an undersized PF at 6-9, has some of the best lowpost moves with all of his spins, jukes, and knowledge of angles around the hoop. He knows how to score, and i think pairing him with Greg will make him that much better.

    Zach is probably not the best mentor off the court for Oden, but one thing is for sure, Greg isn’t getting carded at the stripclubs in Portland

    dudes? north and south?

    south=
    dallas, san antonio, phoenix and houston.

    those four vs the other 26 and those four would still win.

    SKEETS. ready yourself for halfcourt hell. Pistons Spurs again. Its an odd year. Spurs are taking it.

    Why take a 7-foot center with a 39 inch vertical, lockdown defense and nearly unstoppable post moves when you could have the best player on the Guangdong Southern Tigers? Yeah, that’s what I thought. Looks like the Celtics are the real winners of the draft!

    Note- The above is a bunch of bullshit. I want Oden.
