Cmon Singleton or Kahwi to the Knicks~!!!!

Singleton is there, but somehow I have trouble imagining the Knicks taking him.

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Donatas Motiejunas to the Knicks -- and then we'll immediately hear he'll be better than Dirk.

Fun.

 

[Abraham]

Gotta trade him. We have two far better scoring forwards on the roster

What position do you play?

Center. That's why we are so bad in the middle.

 

[Kenny Powers]

Donatas Motiejunas to the Knicks -- and then we'll immediately hear he'll be better than Dirk.Fun.

I thought he just got picked? All this foreign talk sounds the same though

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Rumor is Leonard's heading to the Spurs for George Hill.

 

[Bobcat10]

Shumps

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

HOLY CRAP!!!

 

[Kenny Powers]

IMAN!! wooheehoo

 

[Moe.]

Pacers certainly have a lot of wings.

Bye, bye Granger.Smart move, IMO.

Apparently they are trading Leonard for George Hill.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Effin Knicks.

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Iman Shumpert !!!

Just spoke to Knick fan: He's a better athlete than Vince Carter was and will be a better player. Future Hall of Famer.

 

[Moe.]

I thought Walsh left? He didn't have anything to do with that pick did he?

 

[Bobcat10]

Artest? Wah?

 

[Major]

Rockets board is About to crash with rage.

I was a little dumbfounded by the pick but assuming Morey has something up his sleeve.

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Love the Wizards draft so far.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

I thought Walsh left? He didn't have anything to do with that pick did he?

Yeah, he made that pick. He leaves next month.

 

[Moe.]

Artest? Wah?

Seriously. For those who don't know, Ron Artest has decided to change his name to Metta World Peace.

 

[GreatLakesMike]

Love the Wizards draft so far.

Singleton is a steal at 18 IMO. I think he's as good of a post defender as I've seen in quite some time. Hopefully his offensive game will come around.

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Wolves should take Donatas Motiejunas & use as trade chip this summer

 

[[scooter]]

Really hoping the Blazers take Faried at 21. He's undersized as a power forward but he's a relentless rebounder and tireless defender. He'll never be an all star but he'll play 12 years in the league.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Rubio montage!!

Good trade for the Pacers. Get an IUPUI guy.

Nah, let him fall to Denver!!

 

[Mario Kart]

Bucks are going to be the #3 seed next year. Great pick who is going to be rookie of the year.

 

[Abraham]

Would like to see rockets get mo montlejunas but not sure what they would offer.

 

[Kev4029]

Courtney Lee? Would be a good fit for Minnesota.

 

[Kenny Powers]

Hamilton as Bilas' 9th overall made me and apparently NBA teams feel the same way.

Marshon Brooks should start to be considered soon

Here is their chance!

 

[Kenny Powers]

...and now looking at Bilas' rankings, Smith seemed low. One of the few Duke players of the last decade I actually respect

 

[[scooter]]

Ugh. Way to draft a 2nd rounder at #21. As if the Blazers don't have enough tweener guards on the roster as it is.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Most boring draft ever?

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Wolves should take Donatas Motiejunas & use as trade chip this summer

And he's gone....Chad Ford:

Wolves will send Jonny Flynn & rights to Motiejunas to Rockets for 23 & Brad Miller.

Wow, really? Brad Miller's about done..They could have done better IMO.Edit: Ford has also now stated Wolves will receive a future 1st from Houston. Sounds a bit better now.

Miller had micro fracture surgery this offseason, hes done.

 

[Abraham]

Go rockets! Back up pg and the guy we wanted (well, one of them). And without giving up lee.

 

[culdeus]

wow, a d00k player

 

[Eastwood]

Congrats Nolan and Portland fans. Even the biggest dbag UNC fans have to admit he's a great kid and great player.

 

[Kev4029]

Love it!

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Nice pick by Denver. (Faried)

Blazers shouldn't have wasted their pick on Nolan Smith and should have taken him.

 

[Reginald Cornsilks]

Love Kenneth Fareid - won't show up in the Player of The Week Voting most weeks but the dude is just a beast. He shouldn't have fallen that far.

 

[Abraham]

Take marshon here and the rockets have had a solid night.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Take marshon here and the rockets have had a solid night.

Seems like this is the Minny pick now via trade

 

[Joe Summer]

For all the praise for Faried, you would have thought he'd be a lottery pick...

Wonder what kind of protections are on that future 1st. Could end up biting them.

 

[Bogart]

NBA source: denver trades felton for andre miller, the 26nd pick from dallas and a future second

 

[Abraham]

That is a lot to give up for the euro.

I'm guessing that Flynn is awful?

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Houston pick to Minny, who select Nikola Mirotic

Mirotic will then be sent to the Bulls for 28 and 43.

 

[Sudoku_in_the_Bathtub]

Mr. October to the Thunder.

Should be a preseason monster for OKC.

 

[Sonny Lubick Blowup Doll]

Most boring draft ever?

I'm no draft guy to begin with, but I switched over to the Kansas City Royals game I was so bored. The ROYALS! Just wanted to see where Jimmer went really. Prior to that, if you're 6'11" and from Europe...climb aboard kid! LOVED the fact Utah didn't get their Jimmer, that's hilarious. Sacto crushes the hopes and dreams of an entire state.

Source? (Bulls wanted to stash a Euro, so makes sense.)
