On talent he's a late lottery pick. But he has no heart or desire to succeed. Which is a shame.Originally Posted by Proshares

Budinger still on the board after the 40th pick?
I personally think the kid is a good player. He should have gone in the late first round.
Off topic, but if you ask me, Minnesota had a terrible draft. Instead of getting a shooting guard (Curry) or trading down to get a sf (Terrence Williams, EarlClark) they draft 2 point guards. Then swap first rounders with Denver, then draft another point guard with their second rounder. What the hell is wrong withthem?

1) THANK GOD we did not end up with Stephen Curry. There's just something about him that is irritating/annoying.
-but I will give him props for being the best dressed in the green room next to Griffin
2) Hill is cool. But I was hoping for Brandon Jennings to be the pick.
2a) If these Rubio to NY rumors are true, F___ my previous statement, LOL.
3) I don't know why exactly, but I'm a little sad to say goodbye to QRich... Dude was never utilized properly in our offense. They should have playedhim in the post more instead of as a faux spot up shooter.
4) I am officially a New Jersey Nets fan until 2010! haha

ALL I GOTTA SAY IS $+@# MINNESOTA. THEY TOOK THE TWO BEST GUARDS. I HOPE NO ONE TRADES FOR EITHER ONE OF THEM AND THEY ARE STUCK WITH A WASTED PICK!!! RATBASTARDS!!! MAN I WISH WE COULD HAVE GOTTEN FLYNN. AT THE END OF THE DAY THOUGH...IM HAPPY WE DIDNT GET CURRY. CURRY IS NOT GOING TO BE GREAT IN THE NBA. IDONT KNOW WHY PEOPLE SWEAR HE'S GOING TO BE SCORING BUCKETS. HE AINT QUICK. CANT CREATE HIS OWN SHOT....HOW HE GON DROP BUCKETS? ONLY WAY HE WILL IS IF HERUNS THROUGH SCREENS ALL DAY LIKE RIP AND RAY ALLEN. AND ON ANOTHER SIDE NOTE...WHY THE HELL DID GOLDEN STATE TAKE CURRY? THEY HAVE NO ROOM FOR HIM. HE AINTGON START THATS FOR SURE. HE GON BE RIDING THE BENCH ALL YEAR.
AT THE END OF THE DAY I SECRETLY HOPE WE DO MAKE ANOTHER TRADE AND ITS FOR FLYNN NOT RUBIo!

He hasn't been traded........yet.
Right now there's rumors that he'd rather stay in Spain a few more years instead of playing for Minnesota

I almost secretly hopes he does go back to Spain. Waste of a pick for Minnesota.

Makes no damn sense.

It was touched upon in the thread before but...
YES F Minnesota and F Golden State, but you know what? The top 2 or 3 players we wanted were all off the board by the time we were on the clock.
We went with the best available player, who does actually fit one of our needs. At least we didn't reach for some bum, or draft a position we have no usefor.
I wish we could have walked away with Flynn (even more so after watching his post pick interview, hearing dude talk makes me feel like he "just getsit", he's gonna be a good player for a long time).
But Hill is not a bad consolation prize, IMO.
And maybe more so than other people, but I really, REALLY like the pick of Douglas at 29 from LA. He may be a little shorter than we'd like, but for a dudeto be able to score like he can, AND play defense like he can, that's a valuable combination.

I'm not upset at the Hill pick he was the best talent available at the 8th spot.
I just wanted a PG. Duhon and Nate playing PG won't cut it,

We're getting Rubio. I don't know how yet. But we're getting him. I swear, I'll cut you if you say otherwise.

Hmm, this sounds like another one of those Yi Jian Li stories. Didn't that guy say he didn't want to play for Milwaukee and ended *****ing and cryingto get traded to NJ? I doubt Ricky will pull that card.
On another note...this makes me wonder. Why the Hell did we buy the 29th pick? I don't get it. I figured we would've packaged the 8th, 29th and anotherplayer to move up.

Douglas was a good pick-up, I doubt he starts though.
