It's okay Schmidty. I'll send you a Mullens jersey shirt.

Can you overnight it? I'm on my last roll of toilet paper.

I wouldn't mind having Hansborough in Chicago. He's someone who can step in and play right away. Will give you some energy and minutes off the bench. I'd look at it as a free agent pickup that is much cheaper than actually signing a free agent.

Blah.

What a waste of a pick. I am glad we weren't content with having one Tayshaun Prince. He is 192 lbs and nearly 7 foot. Unreal.

Great pick. Can never have enough Small Forwards.

Yeah, he's Tayshaun 2.0.

Joe has lost it.

Van Gundy, lmao.

Daye makes Tayshaun look like the Hulk.

But back to this shit sandwhich of a pick.

So now we have an unatheltic near 7 footer who weights 190 lbs and is not someone who mixes it up down low. Amazing.

Hey now the last draftee who could not bench press his weight did pretty well


Okay you are right, I don't see this pick as making any sense.

Tayshaun being traded to Celtics for Rondo then. ;)

Bargnani has worked out well.

Kevin Durant just called Austin Daye a pussy.

While I hate to have a Bruin on my team, I like that pick as the best option to fill a need.

Can I go on record now by stating that Ty Lawson will be the steal of the draft?

ROFL

All-PG lineup eh... haha.

If they don't have trades already worked out this could backfire very badly.

Minnesota wtf, they have to be making a trade tonight right?

Agree, they NEED to trade now, and when you need something and everybody knows it, you lose a lot of negotiation strength.

Ummmm okay

Lawson to Denver. I like it.

Ty Lawson to Denver?

It's the new Triangle Offense...set up at the 3 point stripe.

Didn't their new GM say he's gonna make a bang? Jefferson, three PGs, and whoever else they have as a starting lineup. ;)

Maybe he wants to invent a new offense all with PG's, like that ultra spread offense in high school football.

Nope Wolves actually have someone smart running the operation now. Taking best available player instead of taking some player every knows will suck. Flynn is a beast. Just curious who would have you taken in that spot?

If the Suns end up moving Amare to Golden State for Biedrins, Wright and Belinelli, they will have Nash, Richardson, Clark, Biedrins, Wright, Belinelli, Barbosa, Lopez, Dudley and Goran Dragic as their top 10 (with Amundson as well). Their next move may be to trade for Don Nelson as they have basically become the 2006 Golden State Warriors. They'll also have only $33 million in guaranteed salary going into the 2010 offseason.

They will lose, but it will be in style and at a high pace ;)

Three PGs in the top 20?

And now starting at PG for the Minnesota Timberwolves...... Everyone?

Well obviously Lawson is getting traded and Ive been seeing rumors of Rubio going to the Knicks for Nate Robinson/Jordan Hill. It will all work out give him a chance.

They need a PG while Rubio is getting ready, and just in case one fails they have another I guess.

But then it's not fun. ;) Three PGs is more entertaining.

I'm obviously slightly biased but I agree.

LOL It would have been unique.

I actually wanted Flynn but I wasnt sure who else they should have taken. I really didnt see anyone else worth a 5/6 pick so under them circumstances I think he did the smart thing. Im really not even sure why they need Jordan Hill considering they have Jefferson/Love at PF.

Between this and the draft tonight, maybe they're going for the extremes and trying out a 3 PG/2 C lineup

SI

I think it may be time for some of the underclassmen who decided to declare early to sweat a bit.

Portland loading up on Spanish dudes? I'd like to see someone try that (get a significant portion of their roster from one good national team). I thought Collangelo would try it in Toronto.

Looks like Curry may be part of the Amare deal. Local radio is saying that the deal is Amare for Curry, Biedrins and Wright (with maybe Belinelli as well). They've said that Golden State is already negotiating a long term extension with Amare and the deal can't be announced because Biedrins is a base year guy and the cap numbers won't work until FA begins:

Curry pick part of likely Amare deal

EA better improve the NBA Live series now that Howard is on the cover. He should have waited to be on the NBA2k cover down the road.

I don't watch the NBA but it is a surprise that Blair still hasn't been picked?

Hm... interesting, but not sure what to think of that

SI

Yes, he was expected to go in the 15~20 range but his injury history might be scaring some teams.

SI

Makes no sense to me what the Kings are doing. They'll have an injury prone Amare (who they will pay max money for) and no one.

Portland apparently offering Oden for Rubio.

Kevin Martin is a stud. Im guessing u meant gGolden State though:)

Raw numbers might play a part of it as well. 6'6 277lbs for a 4 is a tough sell for a lot of teams

Yeah sorry, Golden State. I just don't get it.

Uhh... I would not do that if I were Minnesota. But it would be interesting for the all-Spanish team. ;)

Yeah who knows about them. Monta Ellis is a good player but Stephen Jackson is a cancer that shoots all the time. I dont see Amar'e making them much better than what they are either.
