Israeli league...

Holy Cow.

What about that other forward from Pitt.
I forget his name.
I thought he was pretty good.

Maybe he drops to the Spurs who
have the 102 nd draft spot.

Well, the Bulls are back to normal. First pick was ok, but the 2nd pick of Sam Cassell's twin was horrible

Who exactly were you looking for at this point?

I would have traded both of their picks for future picks because this draft sucks...I wouldn't even want Blake Griffin, he is garbage

So you think that the other GM's were hot on the 27th pick in a bad draft? Griffin is far from garbage.

Cannon Shell 06-25-2009 09:17 PM

heard Knicks and Minn may have a deal worked out for Rubio to go to NY.

Cannon Shell 06-25-2009 09:17 PM

Douglas is better than Ellington.

Minnesota could have taken more point guards with the Bulls picks...

Griffin was top in a weak league, this isn't football. He will get dominated in the NBA.

He might have a good 1st year, but he will steadily fade away

He has star potential if he ever escapes Clipperland.

I think Blair may be ok somewhere.

I am just not a fan of him, I don't see 'it' in him..Solid maybe, but he won't be a star, and I think he might have issues scoring given he isn't as tall as he was suppose to be, and his quickness is negated because everyone is quick in the NBA, except Big Z in Cleveland

Just wanted to add about Curry that he's not just a product of weak competition in the Southern Conference. He proved himself on the highest levels of the college game. In the last two years, he played 13 games against teams from the six power conferences and two more against Gonzaga and St. Mary's in the NCAA tournament. He averaged 28.7 in those games. He averaged 30.9 in seven NCAA tournament games. Had 30 against Maryland as a freshman in the tournament, 40 against Gonzaga, 30 against Georgetown, 33 on Wisconsin, 25 and within one shot of beating champion Kansas, 44 against Oklahoma and NC St., 29 against Duke. The guy is legit.

Garbage?

HOly moses he is the only guy I feel perfectly comfortable with.
It is possible he gets ruined by playing for LA. The other LA.
