The Official NBA Draft Thread

I didn't think he'd be the 1st guy to go from Wake...

 

[Axion Jaxion]

i got this bad feeling that Rubio will be traded.

No chance. Rubio will be a very good basketball player in Minneapolis.

Then you must not have watched Jeff Teague spending the second half of the season throwing up all over himself.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

i want to believe it but they're still the T-Wolves.

 

[crusse10]

Minnesota wanted to get the #2 so they could get Rubio.

...14% chance that Rubio leaves Minnesota before the season starts.

Eric Maynor or Ty Lawson?

 

[Axion Jaxion]

76ers select Jrue Holliday.

 

[UTBasketball2]

Edit Axion beat me.

 

[Axion Jaxion]

Eric Maynor or Ty Lawson?

I thought they'd pick Lawson as well.

Ed Stefanski has borrowed some of Larry Bird's stash. Holiday wasn't even the best point guard on his own college team.

 

[crusse10]

With Maynor's scoring prowess, I'm honestly shocked he isn't gone already. He was a beast, but I guess competition could have a lil something to do with it.

Westbrook wasn't the best either was he?

Probably. I really have grown to like Eric Maynor in the last few years. Dude is sick.

But Ty Lawson is no slouch either.

Westbrook is one of the best athletes in the NBA. Holiday's athleticism is average for the pro level.

 

[dickens821]

Blah. This draft is so awful. It is laughable.

 

[UTBasketball2]

Ty Lawson.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

another PG.

 

[hatvol96]

The Timberwolves are attempting to corner the market.

 

[Axion Jaxion]

WTF are the Timberwolves doing?

 

[dickens821]

The Timberwolves are attempting to corner the market.

looks that way.

 

[Axion Jaxion]

Lawson's a Nugget.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

taking BPA

 

[KingNick865]

The Timberwolves are attempting to corner the market.

No kidding. 3 guards in the first round for them. Are they really that thin at G, or are they going to use one of their picks for trade bait? I really don't follow the T-Wolves that much, so I really don't know.

 

[hatvol96]

Would someone please explain to Jay Bilas the the NBA game is almost exclusively played in the halfcourt. The next time he babbles about someone going up and down in college, Van Gundy or Jax should pour water into his headset.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

Telfair was the starting PG, nuff said.
