    What the are you doing here? Go download The Wire and start that ASAP. The Wire is the greatest piece of visual media ever made no joke. One of the actors was so convincing playing a heroin addict that he had a couple of addicts offer give him a free hit because he looked so ed up.

    Also was the birth of a lot of great actors like Idris Elba, Michael B Jordan, Dominic West, Michael K. Williams, Lance Red , Jamie Hector, etc as well as memorable performances from Method Man and Fredro Starr from Onyx.

    The series is so amazing Harvard created a course on urban inequality based on the show

    Tell me this scene ain't amazing

    you're telling me you never watched the 2 greatest series in the history of television?

    I'm starting to wonder if Brian Wright can play some 4D chess and somehow aquire a first to then flip it for KD without us giving up #14. Having one of these role players on a rookie deal for the next 4 years could be very valuable going forward.

    i think this is the way. However, at some point, having a solid enough role player for an extended period of time will outweigh even a top 10-20 player.

    So anything more than ONE first i would have to disagree because 1. a couple of b rated players kept for 5 years is worth more, and b. Odds are we hit a diamond in the rough.
    Role players will never be worth more than a ring. I think spurs fan are a little out of touch when it comes to that due to Tim Duncan gifting us 5 rings when a Third of the NBA still doesn't have a single one.

    The odds are actually against anyone at 14 being a diamond in the rough. There's talent for sure, but they're at the middle of the 1st round for a reason. I like the prospects of the 14th pick more this year than I can remember in awhile. Still wouldn't think twice on getting Durant for the 14 and off loading bad contracts. That would without a doubt help Wemby the most on the court as well. What's best for Wemby, is best for the team. We aren't promised an entire career with the kid as we learned this year.

    14 for durant I agree you have to pull the trigger. However, with castle, fox, and likely harper, there is a real chance of at minimum spurs having 2 solid allstars, all on the cheap.

    Yes, Role players aren't worth more than a ring, however solid role players are a necessity to most championship teams. You can see this by just looking at how teams are being constructed now, including the top 4 teams right now fighting for a chip, and boston last year. Prioritizing a few top tier talent at the sacrifice of instead having a solid well rounded 6-7 man rotation I don't think is the way to go anymore.

    Smh, I thought scott was a man of culture.
    Controversial opinion, but second season is my favorite.

    The Wire and Sopranos are unparalleled.

    Brian Wright coming for second round picks:

    I only watched the first two seasons of The Wire (maybe some of season three, but I don't remember). They weren't available to watch here in AU until years later and I just haven't gotten around to restarting/re-watching the show from the start.
    Same with the Sopranos, I watched up to either season 3 or 4, but again, they weren't on local cable I don't think. I think so you had to watch them on regular TV when they aired, but I didn't have the time to back then.
    Breaking Bad, for whatever reason, I avoided it/didn't believe the hype when it was originally airing, only just started watching it recently and am up towards the end of season 2. From what I've watch so far, I think it's definitely lived up to the hype I would hear back when it was originally airing.

    I will say, I didn't like S2 of The Wire as much as season 1. I have to re-watch it for sure, but maybe because it was a such a big change with new characters threw me off.

    Not sure if anyone ever got into an Andre Braugher show called Homicide: Life on the Street as I remember reading that it was a very realistic cop/detective show based in Baltimore like The Wire is. I remember watching some episodes, but never had access to watch the whole series or whole seasons. Maybe not as highly rated as 'The Wire', but is still rated highly compared to most other shows.
