I told you the Clips would get no. 1 Greg

lol in the worst draft. They better trade that damn pick.
OOooh a trade completely slipped my mind. I haven't thought of that, a lot of teams want Griffin (One of only like... 3/4 players worthy in this draft). The Clips could package a deal with the 1st round pick along with Camby, an effective defender, and an expiring contract. The question is to who, and what could they get?

The Kings don't have anyone worthwhile the Clips would want because they'd be stupid to trade away K-Mart.

They could try to pry Gay away from Memphis since they already have Mayo... no point in getting Mayo when the Clips already have Gordon.

Or maybe even a deal to somewhere like Chicago. Package something for Luol Deng.

Lots of scenarios.

Could be an interesting draft day for the Clips.

They have to take rubio. First off marc gasol has played good enough to be a starter.

If they took Hasheem, Rubio would fall to us. But I've been watching Jennings, and I'm liking what I see.

NO matter where he goes, I'll always be a THabeet fan

And Conley isn't good enough to be a starter? He has shown he has what it takes. His only glaring weakness going into the pro's was his shot, and he shot over 40% from 3 this season.

Nobody in their right mind would pass on rubio for conley. So you would honestly say you would rather have conley over rubio? Im not a huge rubio fan but the kid will be a young nash. Conley is cool and all but he was carried to the league off of oden's talent.

Oh yea word is that the Sixers have a plan in place to send Dalembert to the Rockets, and another possible trade in place to possibly move up and bring Tyreke Evans home.

Lets go Reke Havoc.

Could you imagine a reke-iggy-thad-eb-marresse and with lou and green and jason smith off the bench. The league would not be ready.

Conley wasn't just made off Oden.. He sure helped but he has a lot of talent and isn't being used right on a crappy team. I haven't seen Rubio play besides for some highlights so he could be better and probably will but no one knows..

Teams that know how to force the Sixers into actually running plays in a half-court set would be ready.

I have faith in my Pistons that they will pick the right guys to fit with us. I mean, yes, there was one decision that didn`t go over all that well this season for them, but everyone makes mistakes. A new draft, new players, new year, new start.

IDK why he wouldn't want to go to the Grizz, he'd have GAsol there, another Spaniard, would help him somewhat, and would be the PG of the future. Plus, Conley still has good trade value because of his potential I think.

A Gay-Mayo-Rubio backcourt would be scary for the next 10 years

I think its all about Marketablility, OKC isnt a big market, and Memphis is a big name city but not a big market when it comes to basketball.

I'm happy about this draft order. Clippers 1, Grizz 2, Thunder 3...thats gonna be sweet.

I think the Thunder will take Hasheem Thabeet...Clippers obviously Griffin, and the Grizz...i'm not sure. I hope Sacramento gets Rubio though.

Look out for DeJuan Blair. If anyone made an impact on the first day of the NBA’s combine here, it was Blair. That’s because, when he stepped on the scale this morning for his official weigh-in, he registered at 275, an astounding 40 pounds less than the 315 he was at just four weeks ago, when he began working out at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla.
