That is true, but still the Nuggets needed that pic, JR might leave(the Spurs want him bad). Then they will have even less depth... Oh well I'm glad the 'Cats got another pick.
Well in most of the earlier drafts it had them drafting Ty Lawson and the article I read a while back made it seem liked they were really disappointed he missed his workout for them (because of a foot injury), and maybe because he backed out of the draft they decided that they didn't want/need somebody else.

I swear Ive been waiting for this day since the beginning of the season when I realized nothing had changed....

I hope Walsh and D'Antoni make a good choice. I dont want to see Gallinari nor Gordon at that 6 spot. I really wish we would trade up and get Mayo, but I know thats a LONG shot.

Im hoping we draft Bayless, Augustin, or Westbrook (in that order) and I wanna see other trades by the Knicks during the draft too, Randolph needs to go, and Im hoping we can find a suitor.

Today is make or break for our season.

But why should they have 2 Shawn Marion's when they could trade for something like Brand or get Mayo or something like that??? Its smart, not retarded.

The Memphis Grizzlies like Eric Gordon and Kevin Love. But it is looking more and more likely that they will trade away their No. 5 pick on draft night.

The New Jersey Nets and the Grizzlies are in talks about a trade that would send the No. 5 pick to New Jersey for the No. 10 pick and a future first-round pick.

If the Nets move to No. 5, it appears they are looking at two guys who might not be on the board at No. 10: Danilo Gallinari and Love.

I could see Memphis trading it, they aren't really sold on 1 guy at #5.

When I say that I mean

will he be the Marbury the past 2/3 years (cant score, doesnt get teammates involved enough)

or

the 18PPG 8ast players he used to be.
Marbury's best ball is far behind him...

As long as they don't get rid of Gay, that would be nice if they could get him.

Reports are we're interested in the #5 pick with giving up Stack, our 2nd, and possibly an expiring this next year.......

I'm wonder who the <Censored> the MAvs would take that early and who they think is worth trading that much for

Good question...I would say maybe Kevin Love, but I think they would be more interested in drafting a PG or SG type player.

After looking through the players, if we stay at #51 or move up just a little, I like this Sonny Weems guy from Arkansas. He brings more athleticism to the team, and looks like he can bring a lot of energy which was the total opposite of last year with a bunch of old guys

He would be good. I watched him in the 2008 College Slam dunk contest...he almost won to.

Dallas would get screwed in that deal imo.
