David Stern is doing an epic troll job in his final draft, taunting fans, doing hand gestures to the crowd to boo him more. From what I heard and based on the twitter reaction, he's been doing it all night.
He might even be topping his Hulk Hogan hand-to-ear gesture from last year.

I don't really follow the NBA draft, nor the NBA, but whoever drafts my man Erick Green is getting a steal. I knew he wouldn't go too early since he played on such a crap team but I can't believe so many nobody guards have gone in the late 20's and the beginning of the second before him...

gonna start watching the NBA again when my boy Zeke Marshall gets drafted. Hearing either 39 or 40 to Portland or maybe later to LA or San Antonio. Go Zips.

Adams to OKC at 12, good place for him to land, good pick for OKC.
I think sometimes people confuse "being ready for the NBA" with a player's floor. Certainly, Adams has a high ceiling and isn't ready for the NBA, but his floor as a player is a rotation guy who can grab boards and play defense. I have a very hard time believing, that with his size and athleticism, that he isn't a 10 year guy.
Compare that to a guy like Olynyk, whose floor and ceiling are both very low due to his lack of athleticism, defense and rebounding, but is a polished offensive player.
