A soon-to-be-running NBA Draft Thread

A Morrison crying joke?

ahhahahahahahaa


Why did the Blazers do that? Unless I don't understand some salary aspect of it, why trade up to pick a player (Aldredge) that would have been available at 4?

Best line of draft so far:

DJ Stuey -- "The rest of this interview is going to be in English."

my particular, corny, bastardized english

 

I'm impressed Jordan chose to go with Morrison.

 

What are the Bobcats going to do with Gerald Wallace now? He has been their SF and is a great defender. He averaged 15 PPG last season, too. Very underrated. He's has been their starting SF the past two seasons and is listed at 6-7. He doesn't really fit anywhere but SF. So what does this mean for Morrison? Wallace?

 

Can Wallace play the 2?

Great pick by the 'Cats, methinks.

 

Hell, put Morrison at 2-guard. The more touches the better.

 

Good job by the lazy eye upon completion of the Adam Morrison interview... "Adam says he likes to listen to Metallica while he works out. Well, I guess Metallica will be playing in Chitown!"

Oops.

Another example on how this production is top-shelf quality-wise: It's wonderful to see that the 18/58 software doesn't quite work yet, and the draft ticker has given Milwaukee's 2nd round pick more airtime than Greg Anthony so far. Way to make sure the software actually works before going live, ESPN. I can only imagine how well your phone works.

 

Does the pick of Brandon Roy means the Wolvies are concerned about McCants' health? I mean, two SGs in the first round in back-to-back years? McCants at No. 14, Roy at No. 6.

 

why do we deal with these "I got a story about a trade" when there are 5 minutes between picks and no time for drama.
If there are 15 minutes between picks, then fine.
Ric Puker and Andy Katz are boring me to tears!

 

"Reacharound! Memphis gets Gay behind Houston"

 

nice. I smell a headline!

 

Ok, so the rights to Foye will go to Portland for Telfair?

The rights to Aldridge go to Portland for the rights to Thomas, plus maybe some future considerations and scrubs?

 

One of the more interesting things about this has been the reactions on the faces of the players bashed by the Bilas/Morris Day/Anthony trio ... watching Gay uncomfortably sit there and get bashed and hearing "defer" 45 times since none of them know a synonym for "afraid to shoot and disappears against good teams" was entertaining.
