Orlando :lol :lol :lol

HAVE FUN STEVE!
 
Wow, I wonder how far May will continue to fall? Maybe the Lake Show can get a trade going to get back into the first round to grab a Granger or a May.
 
Bogurt and Vazquez the future star centers of the NBA that will challenge Yao bwhaha
 
Lakers trying to replace Shaq.... at least in weight.

How do the Magic not take Granger. He plays good D and 3 positions. fuck.

They should have taken him,fucking stupid :lol Rockets trade up and get him!!!
 
Hey Vitale you thought Yao would be a bust...but I agree with you this draft.
 
Vitale speaks the troof. My guess is they went to Vitale first so they could finish putting the Russian's name on the marquee. And fuck the Magic, they better get another first rounder ala Nelson last year.

Edit: Great now I get to watch May exact revenge on the Magic 4 times a year.
 
Bobcats are fucking smart.
 
I think teams are looking at some international players more than other domestic players because there is perception that international players have less ego and are more team oriented. I think it is a vaild argument, but I agree with Stephen A. Smith on his spiel about McCants and May. Interesting draft thus far....
 
Nice, Go Kittens! Now that reggie's out of the league, I may jump on the Bobcats bandwagon. I need an Eastern Conf team for the Rockets to beat up on in the Finals :)

I bet this upcoming season Charlotte will challenge for the 8th spot in the playoffs ! If I'm wrong, I'll wear a Kobe avatar handpicked by a Fakers fan for a month! (of course, I won't be wrong).

edit: Here are my lottery picks:

1. Milwaukee - Andrew Bogut
2. Atlanta - Marvin Williams
3. Portland - Gerald Green (will be inlcuded in draft day trade)
4. New Orleans - Deron Williams
5. Charlotte - Chris Paul
6. Utah - Raymond Felton
7. Toronto - Danny Granger
8. New York - Channing Frye
9. Golden State - Joey Graham
10. Los Angeles Lakers - Andrew Bynum (will be included in draft day trade)
11. Orlando Magic - Antoine Wright
12. Los Angeles Clippers - Yaroslav Korolev*
13. Charlotte - Charlie Villanueva**
14. Minnesota - Martell Webster

Draft day trade:
Portland trades the rights to Gerald Green and Ruben Patterson to the Lakers for the rights to Andrew Bynum, Caron Butler and Chucky Atkins

*Clippers have reportedly promised to take Korolev with the 12th pick
**Bobcats have reportedly promised to take Villanueva with the 13th pick

If only the Bobcats had taken Villaneuva...

The funny thing is Toronto might STILL get Granger... :D
 
:lol

For those of you not watching, McCants just took about a half an hour to get up to the stage, such a long time that Stern didn't realize he was in attendance. He then came up behind Stern, tapped him on the shoulder, and looked with great big puppy dog eyes for a handshake.

Are they in the Green Room? Has one of them started crying yet?

I hope one of them continues to cry right until 24th pick :D
 
McCants!! Awesome pick for them. Same with Bobcats.

I think McCants could be the player of the draft. He's quite the scorer.
 
LMAO :lol @ Toronto really wtf get out of the NBA

I think it needs to questioned if the franchise is deliberately tanking. Maybe hoping they get to relocate to the states ala Vancouver
