***NBA Draft Thread***

[geburgess]

So when does it start and where can I watch it online?

Starts at 6:30 Central, as to online maybe NBA.com has it on, probably ESPN3 as well if you have it.

I'm curious to see who the T-Wolves pick or if that make some sort of trade. Kanter would seem to fit their actual needs better than Williams or Irving, but he is also a bigger risk. I wonder if some sort of deal can be worked out with Phoenix if they are really intent on trying to keep Williams in the state.

Take a look at this......pathetic!!!

Fred got out at the right time. The front office is in turmoil.

Ok, now the question is if the T'Wolves keep Williams or trade him.

 

[Yes13]

Plz trade Williams for Igoudala.

They just said T-Wolves management said they're keeping him.

I hope all the great prognosticators on this board are right and DG gets drafted, but if I was forced to bet on it, I'd bet that he doesn't get drafted.

Just wanted to throw my minority opinion out there so I can bask in the glory of being a true oracle when DG isn't drafted or wallow in defeat and eat crow when he isn't.

Still, it would be awesome if he's drafted!! It would be great for recruiting and I certainly hope he does get drafted. Realistically though, I doubt it.

By the way, I read yesterday that ESPN did not have Diante in their mock draft. He is today, being selected 51st by the Portland Trail Blazers.

3 of the top 6 picks have been foreign. Sad sight.

A certain special service from a certain four letter word company has him going at #51 to Portland. It's the first of their Mock's that they've had him getting drafted.

"allegedly 18 years old"

WTH?

That made me go

Loved it when the guy compared himself to Bosh. Not strong with body - wish I could remember what else he muttered.

"allegedly 18 years old"

WTH?

There have been some questions as to if he's actually more like 22 or 23 years old. His body doesn't look like an 18 year old, and he seems far too polished for his age.

Personally, don't care how old he is.
