2009 NBA Draft

[elcheato]

I just want Sam Young. He could make an impact year one for us. Solid shooter, so he'll get his looks off LeBron, and a good defender so he'd please Mike Brown.

 

[dez]

Mills will most likley be there, and Im sure Maynor will too but theres no telling come draft day.

 

[.GR]

No way we take Holliday. He's not even in our top 3 I don't think. From what I've been hearing and workouts.

 

[The Young One]

Reke and K-mart would be serious as fukk.... reke would proably take away from k-mart's game though.


Rubio worked out for the kings today and i heard they werent impressed

 

[MapleLeaf]

mark cuban was just on the radio saying they are staying up late tonight and tomorrow obviously, and they have 1 particular point guard who they really like, and then he laughed and said he couldn't say the name

Yeah he didn't do good at all. He says it's because he hasn't picked up a basketball since league. Bullsh-t. I'm on the Reke wagon. I want him to be a King.

Russell Westbrook tells ESPN the Magazine who the Thunder should take with the third pick: James Harden. "'He can handle, shoot and he's athletic. And he was in a good system at Arizona State,' ... But don't get Westbrook started on sliding to the 2 so Oklahoma City can tap Spanish star Ricky Rubio. Says he: 'You trippin'.'" - ESPN

 

[The Young One]

Haha I saw the same thing greg. I was like bull<Censored> he was like I need teammates to show what I can do. I seriously think reke, or jrue is the better fit.

Im hoping teague falls to 17 I don't want no fukking part of ty lawson.

Evans would flourish in the Princeton offense. Get it to the high post and feed off of him. Spencer is a GREAT passer, would work well IMO.

"One rumored deal has the Griz and Kings completing a transaction that would include the No. 2 pick along with Jason Thompson and Francisco Garcia."

Gerald Henderson is an option for the Knicks if Ricky Rubio, Stephen Curry and Tyreke Evans are all off the board. New York has been trying to move up to select either Rubio or Curry, but currently remain at the eighth overall pick.

Point guards Brandon Jennings and Jrue Holiday should be available with the 8th pick, but sources claim that Donnie Walsh and Mike D'Antoni prefer Henderson over the pair.

Disgusting.

Via Twitter, Alan Hahn reports that the Knicks may send cash to the Timberwolves for the 28th pick overall.

The deal would give the Knicks the 8th and 28th picks in Thursday's draft.

Hahn reports that the deal is not done but is an "option, one of many."

 

[The Young One]

SMFH at Gerald Henderson with the 8th pick.

 

[dez]

1. Griffin
2. Thabeet
3. Rubio
4. Evans
5. Harden
6. Holiday/Flynn/Curry
7. Hill
8. Curry/Holiday/Flynn

My best guess

 

[Pugz]

Gerald at 8, LOL

 

[VC15]

I wouldn't be surprised if Walsh made another dumb pick like that.

 

[RipCity32]

Dumars said he is targeting a front-court players in the draft.
So that rules out any guards for #15 at least.

 

[Pugz]

we shouldn't even use our 2nds, trade them for like 25 cents lol.

 

[RipCity32]

Might as well keep them.
I heard Danny Green is a possibility. He is someone I had my eye on with one of those picks, I think he can be a solid role player.

 

[Pugz]

Danny would be a good pick with our first 2nd. After that though.. move the picks.

Last player left in the green room...

And possibly next Net....

Tyler Hansbrough impressed in a workout with the Nets on Tuesday.

His jumper was accurate and he also showed impressive lift on his shot, according to the New York Post.

New Jersey, which has the 11th pick, has a number of power forwards, which is believed to have put Hansbrough behind guys like Jonny Flynn, Terrence Williams and Gerald Henderson on their wish list.
