NBA Draft - The Top 10

A Breakdown of the Top 10 NBA Draft Picks

NBA Draft - The Top 10

Timberwolves – Karl Anthony-Towns

  • They just wanted someone, anyone, who could replace Kevin Love. That's

exactly what they got with Karl Anthony-Towns. Hopefully he doesn’t leave them

for free agency in the prime of his career.

Lakers – D’Angelo Russell

  • Apparently, the old rookies didn’t brew Kobe’s coffee to perfection and one time

they picked up his dry-cleaning a bit late.

76ers – Jahlil Okafor

  • They wanted to pick the most talented player and ruin his career in the worst kind of way.

Knicks – Kristap Porzingis

  • Who? Is he here on a work visa?

Magic – Mario Heznoja

  • Wanted to one-up the Knicks by selecting another European player who will have maybe three good years before being deemed too small/weak/untalented for the NBA.

Kings – Willie Caulie-Stein

  • DeMarcus Cousins is leaving, so they wanted to pick a player who was least likely

to complain about being traded by George Karl.

Nuggets – Emmanuel Mudiay

  • They really didn’t send any mixed messages to Ty Lawson with this pick.

Pistons – Stanley Johnson

  • 99% of people reading this forgot about the Pistons after 2004. This pick didn’t help

their case by selecting someone named Stanley Johnson.

Hornets – Frank Kaminsky

  • Michael Jordan selected him.

Heat – Justise Winslow

  • Wanted to serve justice after LeBron left them all alone.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
