All I know is that we participated in one of the super workouts where like 24 prospects were on display or something. We might try to buy a 2nd round pick. I know were are going to trade one of out bigs away and could acquire a rookie from the team we're trading with.

Looking at this link, can anyone tell me since the event is open to the public, if we have to get tickets or any form of RSVP'ing in advance. Thanks.

Hi, I'm a Clipper fan, and Mike Dunleavy is the coach. FML.

Pre-Draft Interviews

Neil Olshey

Mike Dunleavy pt.1

Mike Dunleavy pt.2

Dunleavy was rocking the San Diego power blue polo.

- The team has gone to some of the group workouts and may trade for a late first or 2nd rounder from a team looking to shed some salary.

- DJ has been working hard on his condition (check Jordan's Journal thread for details) and free-throw shooting. Dunleavy believes DJ's ceiling is Tyson Chandler.

- Team is not putting out feelers on their big men. Other teams are inquiring and we're simply listening but in no rush to make a move.

- In any trade, the team would be looking to solidify depth on the wing positions.

- Dunleavy said that Baron has been dedicated to training hard during the offseason and that the team's success and his play go hand in hand.

All-in-all, nothing earth shattering

It mentions that MVP's can RSVP in advance. It's probably just first come, first serve, but I'd suggest calling to be sure.

James Harden to OKC at number 3. I like the pick for them. Outside of Griffin, It was him and Rubio for me.

I doubt the Kings will pass on him, but yeah, we should be talking to Minny.
Though, it's been said that the Wolves are very high on Rubio as well.
