    We own the pick via the trade, but they never announced that dallas was picking for us, they always get in a hurry in the second round. But rumor has it we are shopping targuy ngombo, no clue for what though.

    Jonathan Givony reports on Twitter that the surprise Qatar player that the Timberwolves were after (using Portland's 57th pick) may have been lying about his age:

    "Uh-oh, looks like our guy T'Wolves draft pick Tanguy Ngombo has been busted for lying about his age: http://bit.ly/kfxzqp (hat-tip @sJacas )"



    https://twitter.com/DraftExpress/status/84330036089466881

    He says this is common practice in Qatar to nationalize players. The fact that Ngombo is 27 may mean that his is ineligible to be drafted:

    "NBA should invalidate it. Not that it matters, but he was ineligible to be drafted. RT @kpelton: So what happens to the Tanguy Ngombo pick?"

    He was hidden because they found out that he lied about his age.

    I'm sure Blazers Mng know about this by now and are keeping it quite.

    Instead of being 21 he is actually about to turn 27.

    Which would probably not be that big of a problem if he had star qualities.

    But by the time he is ready to be some kind of a supporting player he will be in his thirties.

    So Portland were probably looking to trade him along with some other so called minor pieces,but know I doubt that any other team will be interested in #57 T.Ngombo.

    Funny how this is not reported on this website or the Oregonion.

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    Ridnour doesn''t have a lot of offensive game, but he''s irritating as hell as an opponent and that''s what you want. He can run plays and stuff so he would be nice.

    Thanks Siccolo, not to knock on Bosh. I think if he was the number one option he would go back to being a beast. I miss making jokes about him playing for the RAPTORS. He is a great player.

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
