JW why would the Bucks take Jordan if they already have Bogut and CV31?

Good question Maple, I thought so because I think that Deandre Jordan is a HUGE gamble who could turn into a dominate big man or pan out into Stromile Swift, and I think the Bucks are ready to take that chance with him because they need someone besides Michael Redd that they can go to instantly.

You really think the Kings will draft Gaillinari over Arthur?
Any reasoning?

and Yi said he wouldn't play in Milwaukee, too.

all depends on the money and such.. but Galinari that late is a steal.. this kid looks phenomenal (though it is agains lesser competiton)

Yeah Gallinari pulled a Yi lol but so has so many other players this year. Mayo and Brook Lopez said the same thing.

But I like the Knicks pick, interesting having the T'Wolves picking Bayless, not to sure if their sold on Telfair as their starter.

But you said the Bucks need someone else to go to other then Redd, if thats so....Jordan isnt their guy, his offensive game isnt NBA level at any means, its going to take at least 3-4 years for him to develop a consistent offensive game.

To be honest with you guys Ive seen both a little bit and to me, Kosta Koufos seems to be a MUCH better player than Gallinari

Sorry to be critical but I don't think the Cavs would even think about taking Chalmers. Right now they are working on long term deals for both Delonte West and Daniel Gibson, so I doubt we bring in anymore youthful Point Guards. We'd probably go for a big man considering we have two older guys in the PF/Center position with Ilguaskas and Ben Wallace.

Thats why I think, if Kosta's there Cavs will take him.

I really dislike Joe Alexander.
White players drafted by the Warriors mostly never work out.

Andris does because he is sexy.

We need a black guy who can shoot and has more tattoos then MapleLeaf's post count.


Speaking of ink, Monta Ellis is covered in tattoos now. ;o
