    Check the grades and descriptions for both rounds

    . Is this a joke?

    Those grades are terrible. They gave the Kings a D for drafting Demarcus Cousins! WOW!

    Whoever compiled those grades is a real dbag, or really just didn’t care. If you’re put asinine statements on the web at least attach your name to it.

    These guys don’t know much about the NBA draft. I would say we have much better collective knowledge on this board than those over-priced hacks at CBS Sports.

    They gave Detroit a C for taking Greg Monroe, one of the most NBA-ready and talented prospects in this draft. Wow.

    So many fails I don’t know where to begin.

    – “Rubio, Flynn, Johnson, Jefferson, Love … Sounds good, but it’s unlikely Timberwolves fans will ever see it.” – WTF that doesn’t sound good at all. A starting lineup with two point guards and two defensively inept power forwards, I’m pretty sure no TWolves fan would want to see that exact lineup…

    – Giving the Rockets a C for taking the BPA in Patrick Patterson at #14.

    – “Few players’ stocks were rising faster as the draft approached than this guy. Is that really the way prospects should be evaluated?” writeup and D grade for Craig Brackins one of the stupidest things I’ve read regarding the draft in a while.

    – Giving the Hawks a C for taking Damion James at #24 and then comparing the selection to Marvin Williams who was the second pick overall in his draft.

    – Giving the Magic an F for taking Orton at #29, when he was seen as a lotto pick for a while and has more than a high enough ceiling to justify a very late first round selection.

    So many bad things… Touting Turner playing alongside his clone as being a good thing, right, everyone should field back courts with no shooters. And of course, they think Favors was a bad pick, what do they want the Nets to do? Worst grade I think was giving Detroit a C for getting Monroe. Monroe is going to be great and *anti-flame shield* should have been picked over Cousins. Whiteside, Cousins, and Evans. Can you say chemistry problems?

    Good catch on the Minnesota lineup. Forgot to add that to my rant. I honestly want to see that lineup for comedy’s sake

    Anyone see this about the Grizz……….” A team that needed a center first and foremost”……..what a dumbazz. Seriously clueless.

    Also, if he is trying to be funny-he isn’t. Trainwreck would the word to describe it.

    They gave the Pacers an F at ten for taking someone who is not a PG… Exactly what PG did they think was worthy of the ten spot and still on the board?

    Why would you give any team a D for taking Whiteside in the 2nd round? Even if you hated the guy I think it’s at least worth a C+, and that’s if he stomped on your fluffy lovable kitten…

    He kept criticizing the Grizzlies at 25 and 28 but somehow gave them an A at both spots? wtf? Was he watching the same draft or does he have some sort of dyslexic thought process where he mixes up what is truly good and bad.

    There was so much wrong with that i dunno where to begin. I cannot believe that was published on a major media outlet. @itsdwighthoward…I caught that lineup too when dude said sounds good on paper i paused for a good 5 minutes thinking and no it don’t even sound good on paper…That dude def did compare Damion James to Marvin Williams too….And The Grizzlies need a center? They didn’t need a freakin center last year when they wasted the 2nd overall pick on one when Marc Gasol’s screaming hello u got me and i had a good rookie year. And whats with all this cousins hating? When was the last time u saw a freshman dominate the low post like he did? And it wasn’t Beasley or Durant cuz they both shot alot of outside shots…But he did give my 6ers and A although if Evan Turner’s ceiling is Andre Iguodola ima be fuming we didn’t take Cousins.

    Jennings and Evans get D’s. Casspi gets an F. Jordan Hill gets an A.
    ’nuff said.
