This might be the worst draft ever...

at least in terms of buzz. Even Jay Bilas seems to be mailing it in. He hasn't gotten hysterical and started making up words even once. I do think he said 'lengthability" though

Portland fires their GM prior to the draft and then lets him make the picks???

What???

I'd draft Scavs if they did this to me.

With the 22nd pick in the 2010 draft The Portland Trailblazers select Shooting Guard Tom "Scavs" Rothstein from Southern Illinois.

Jay Bilas- I have no idea who this guy is but I like the pick. Rothstein has stoutability and his 2 inch vertical is better than it looks

Jeff Van Gundy- What are they doing? I could guard that guy!!!

Here is how bad this draft is. The Pacers took a guy with the 10th pick who was 2nd team all WAC last year as a sophomore. The 10th best player in the draft couldnt make 1st team in the WAC? ok

Only if you spot him a trampoline.

Biggest sleeper of the draft:

Daniel Orton.. it may take a few years, but I think this kid can play.

If we let Ray go I see no reason we can't sign a max player.

HOF talent, never seemed to play with the needed passion.

Really? Maybe this past year and his brief "mail it in so they will trade me" stint with the Jailblazers but he was tough as nails with Detroit.

I agree, this might be the worst draft ever. There isn't a player in this draft where if I were a GM I would "have to have" him. Even the top 5 are not special players at all. I mean, Derrick Favors, other than the Duke game, did he have a memorable game all season? Evan Turner was a great college player I like him a lot- and his shot to beat Mich was awesome, but is he a bona fide NBA All-Star which is what you should get with the #2 pick in the draft? Seems like he's the kind of guy they always beat on come draft day for not having NBA skills. Paul George is mediocre at best. Someone compared him to Danny Granger- he ain't even close to that.

Evan Turner is going to be the best player on his team.. though that might not be saying much.
