Chat room anyone?

In the 11th hour it sounds as though @Cavs are becoming skittish about selecting Jonas Valanciunas 4th because his buyout remains unsettled

[timvp]

This could be the most interesting draft for Spurs fans in a looooong time.







Or it could be all smoke and no fire, per usual.

Utah had been interested in trading down to pick up Brandon Knight at 8, after taking Enes Kanter with the third pick, league sources said.

While he may pay off down the road, I think the Cavs are trying to please the fans ASAP, and drafting a guy just to stash him in Europe for 2-3 years isnt going to do that....

Warriors still hot on Klay Thompson at No. 11, who has a big fan in Jerry West.

Agreed.

Even if the smart money is on the Spurs standing pat and taking some euro who is locked up until 2015 and hates the NBA at pick 29 . . . still a good night for SpursTalk.

Damn, it sounds like not even the No. 1 pick is for sure right now? While the Cavs may be trying to keep things hush hush, I think they'll end up taking Irving with the #1 pick....

Hawks try to deal Josh Smith for Wolves’ No. 2 pick

[ulosturedge]

Either this is gonna be a real quiet draft or a crazy one lol. I guess we see what happens.

[sehui]

I think this is some CIA Pop action with all the smoke and fire of a TP trade during draft - I'm not surprised if nothing happens, and then in a couple weeks we do something.

[crc21209]

So is Utah gonna take Jimmer with the 3rd pick?

Sounding like Marcus Morris could slip into the middle of Round 1.

Will ESPN break to commercial right before the Spurs pick like they always do?

[Agloco]

So this is where we can view more of TJastal's baggery?

[NASpurs]

This ing Adele is pissing me off.

[Horry For 3!]

Rumor right now is Tony P, Jefferson to the Kings for the 10th pick and Salmons. I like that.

Stern being booed, gotta love it.
