JeeberD · 06-28-2006, 07:03 PM

Have I ever mentioned that I hate Dick Vitale?

Groundhog · 06-28-2006, 07:03 PM

And they do indeed grab Shelden...

sovereignstar · 06-28-2006, 07:04 PM

I've also heard a rumor that the Wolves might move the #9, Hassel, and their trade exception to the Warriors for Murphy and the #9.

Groundhog · 06-28-2006, 07:04 PM

Wolves should grab Roy.

Why? Where does he fit in when McCants comes back?

Groundhog · 06-28-2006, 07:04 PM

BTW, forwards galore so far... PF, PF, SF, PF, PF...

Who cares, Roy is the fave for Rookie of the Year.

Sublime 2 · 06-28-2006, 07:05 PM

I can't see them not taking Foye....

Are you being sarcastic? Who cares who wins RotY?

Groundhog · 06-28-2006, 07:06 PM

He's probably the best overall player in the draft... you don't draft for need.

I disagree. This isn't football.

sovereignstar · 06-28-2006, 07:08 PM

well holy shit

JeeberD · 06-28-2006, 07:08 PM

Rumor alert!

Quote:

"Memphis is making a deal to get to the 8th pick of the draft.

This may be to get Rudy Gay. This would eliminate Gay getting to the 10th pick.

The Grizzlies will give up Mike Miller to Houston for the 8th pick and Houston is sending Juwan Howard to the Grizzlies.

Put the Grizzlies in the 8th spot on the draft board "

Ack!!!

JeeberD · 06-28-2006, 07:08 PM

Dola-

Damn...I would have loved Roy.

Groundhog · 06-28-2006, 07:09 PM

So, Grizz give up Mike Miller for a guy that won't even be as good as Mike Miller and Juwan Hopeless?

miami_fan · 06-28-2006, 07:10 PM

Nice pick by the Wolves. McCants had the same type of surgery that Amare had. He could be out for the year and who knows how he comes back.

hoopsguy · 06-28-2006, 07:11 PM

No one loves Randy Foye as much as Bilas. I mean, I like the guy but I wonder if Bilas is his agent.

ThunderingHERD · 06-28-2006, 07:11 PM

If you think Gay won't be as good as Mike Miller you're an idiot. Gay will be one of the best players out of this draft.

OK, Mr Fortune Teller. It's all guess work, but the times I saw Gay play in college he was anything but spectacular.

JeeberD · 06-28-2006, 07:16 PM

WOOHOO! We got Gay!!!

hoopsguy · 06-28-2006, 07:18 PM

So, are the Celtics fans happy with Telfair instead of Foye? I know you are happy unloading a bad contract in Raef, but how are you rating these two players?

Groundhog · 06-28-2006, 07:18 PM

I'd prefer Foye to Telfair, but moving LaFrentz is very nice.

ThunderingHERD · 06-28-2006, 07:19 PM

I'd take Rondo over Foye, Marcus Williams, or Telfair.

bselig · 06-28-2006, 07:19 PM

Sensible, conservative calls by Vitale

JeeberD · 06-28-2006, 07:22 PM

Battier for Gay would be fucking idiocy!

As far as Rondo goes, I read a good article on CNNSI yesterday. It reminded me that he sucked ass in college, couldn't shoot, and is only listed so high because he can run really quick.

JeeberD · 06-28-2006, 07:23 PM

We don't need a fucking "go to guy"...we have TMac and Yao, bitches!

bselig · 06-28-2006, 07:24 PM

Pretty odd trade value-wise. I don't follow the Rockets, do they expect TMac's back to fall apart after next season or something?

I don't actually hate the Williams pick but when I saw that comment the Hawks GM was the first person who came to mind.

Groundhog · 06-28-2006, 07:27 PM

Marcus Williams is going to be a steal for someone.

Groundhog · 06-28-2006, 07:27 PM

C'mon Warriors, hurry up and take your bust-to-be bigman.

I'll fucking hate JVG if he trades him to Memphis.

There we go... the Bradley bigman is off to the Golden State.

Hah, Gay to Memphis...

Crapshoot · 06-28-2006, 07:32 PM

So what's the big deal Dan Patrick just mentioned ? Its Seattle, so has Rashard Lewis been moved to Phoenix in a Shawn Marion deal ?

saldana · 06-28-2006, 07:32 PM

What sites are you referring to? I'm having trouble getting onto realgm.com, but http://nbadraft.net/ is working.
