Title: Stay away from Harry Giles?
Post by: Denis998 on April 10, 2016, 07:19:39 PM
Currently projected as a top pick in next years draft. He has great basketball talent, but he all ready has 2 ACL tears, MCL tear, and meniscus tear. Greg Oden 2.0?

How great is it that we are going to the playoffs, have a shot at winning one or two series, have a realistic chance to signing one or two elite free agents, and Harry Giles is still a possibile draft target next year.

Thank you, Ainge.

I don't know how I missed that.  Brooklyn is currently down by 40 to the Pacers.  Is is wrong to wish for injuries to Lopez and Young next year?

I think its more than likely they get traded in the off season. Only reason i see them shutting down both players.

Nah, not injuries. But traded away? Sure

Is there anybody who has had so many injuries so early on, and gone on to have a productive NBA career?

It does sound like a disconcerting red flag. Giles is an unreal athlete though, he could be a resounding consensus #1.

I think their new GM said something about Brook being a "cornerstone" that they were going to "build around"

Translation: he's gone this offseason.
