^^^ I love you, brah. But you wouldn't be making such a ridiculous statement if you had watched even an iota of college ball.......I mean, we've got players who are going in the early to late 20s and even in some cases second rnd, who'd in any other year go in the high to low lotto positions, man......this draft is stacked beyond belief. Very comporable to 03, and maybe even '96.
I mean, cmon, man.....sheesh!

Danny Ainge really wants Yi I guess. I don't really understand it, but I guess it makes some sense. Corey Brewer, Jeff Green, or Joakim Noah could go here but as of right now I think Yi has the biggest shot out of all four. Keep an eye on Boston as well. Incidentally, this could just be a smoke screen to get Chicago or Golden State to trade up for Yi.
No way this ****er goes that high.....just a gut feeling here
7. Minnesota - Spencer Hawes
McHale apparently sees a lot of himself in Spencer Hawes and promised to draft him here. Not 100% sure, but it seems pretty close to a lock.
same with this clown....here's your pussy right here, bro. Not Fazekas. You talk about someone with all the God given physical attributes in the world yet absolutely no heart, temerity and grit necessary for his position, it's him.
8. Charlotte - Corey Brewer
Wouldn't be surprised to see them take Noah, especially if they feel they can draft a solid 2 guard with the #22 pick, but I think Brewer is too hard to pass on, especially after Morrison's floptastic season. Look for Phoenix to trade for this pick. I haven't heard anything specifically, but the Suns are desperate to get below the luxury tax threshold next season and the Bobcats have the capspace to absorb a big contract in a trade. The Suns are also aggressively looking to trade into the top 10 to draft Noah (or Brewer). They have a scheduled workout with both of them two days before the draft, which Noah and Brewer would never do unless the Suns let them know they were trying very hard to trade up into the top 10. I could see the Suns essentially trading Shawn Marion for this pick. Or maybe Diaw and some other crap/picks.
LOL........Marion (if you wanna talk sabermetrically, this dude just might be the #1 player in the league).....involved in a salary dump situation and only gets you the 8th pick? In my opinion, he fetches you the third pick with ease.....and even KG almost straight up
9. Chicago - Joakim Noah
They really want Yi, but Noah is definitely #2 on their draft board. Fits in perfectly with what they want to do. If the Suns do trade up ahead of them and take Noah, they will be really pissed.
he wont go as low as nine......wanna bet, brah?
10. Sacramento - Jeff Green
The Kings are basically the worst franchise in the NBA right now and could use anything. I hear it's between Noah, Hawes, and Green at this point, and the previous picks make this an easy choice as Green is probably the BPA.
same scenario........alien like measurements coupled with his fantastic workouts.......nigga won't drop that low imo.
11. Atlanta - Javaris Crittenton
I guess he is getting a long look from Hawks brass, the coaches were raving about him and whatnot. They say that he seems like a true point, whereas Acie Law is more of a scorer and they don't need scoring from the point. Blah blah blah blah. This pick addresses their point guard need with either Crittenton or Law. It could also be moved to Portland for Jarrett Carlos, but I don't know why the Blazers would do it for who's left on the board.
[no way this headless chicken goes that high.....again, he's got all the God given talent in the world interms of his physical attributes, but he's nowhere near being a PG.....this ******* headless chicken was probably one of the worst pointmen that I saw in the tourney, bro. Absolutely no vision and distributing sense.....weak, weak B-BALL IQ!/B]
16. Washington - Julian Wright
This just seems like a Best Player Available pick. No one left really blows you away, but Wright has lottery ability and getting him here softens the risk.
goes higher than this.
18. Golden State - Thad Young
Best Player Available here, and he's super athletic and could play in Golden State. They don't really have a true 3 anyway, all of their wings are more 2's.
should also go higher
26. Houston - Nick Fazekas
Apparently Fazekas is a lights out shooter (we all knew that) and would look good next to Yao. Also the new Houston GM I guess, is into some sort of basketball sabermetrics and LOVES Nick Fazekas. If this pussy goes in the first round I'm going to be really damn pissed. He's Steve Novak, who by the way, the Rockets already have. I'm pretty sure about this one.
[Nick's not soft, man. I realize that he doesn't play in the strongest of conferences, but he's no pussy. Good footwork, battles hard down-low, very soft hands that allow 'em to finish cherry-pickin opportunities.....cmon. He totally deserves to be picked in the early 20s imo./B]
29. Phoenix - Daequon Cook
Best player on the board. This pick is probably for sale for straight cash homey, but if not I don't see why they wouldn't take a young shooting guard who can knock down open shots and has a lot of potential, but has yet to realize any of it.
no way that he goes this low......any other year and we're talkin high lotto imo
