I'm still laughing at the Knicks and I was hoping they could at least get a top 3 as well. Allan Houston brought his lucky "person" andeverything.

I think Tyreke Evans may surprise people and go in the top 5. Toronto could have Harden if they want. Still doesn't change anything up there IMO.

This is coming from a Knicks fan?

Who the hell said I was a Knicks fan? Mad cause your city and franchise sucks.

I meant to add only if Amare has an extension to his contract.

I wouldn't worry. Hell will freeze over before that trade happens. Phoenix will probably see how next season starts out and probably try to worksomething out long term with Amare. If they suck or Amare still whines they'll move him around trade deadline time. I doubt he will go anywhere thisoffseason.

I hope to heaven that Walsh and D'Antoni select Jonny Flynn. Dude is a straight up ANIMAL as a PG.

I just don't like Thabeet much anymore. I was all about him last year, but Not after this year.

he's played against 3 quality, first round big men the past 2 years. And got dominated each time, actually flat out embarrassed. each time in a different way.

I think he's a little too 'hollywood' now anyway. Those 3 out in OKC just are about hooping it seems, Harden as well. idk about Thabeet..


So it's more of, I think Thabeet isn't all that great as opposed to a Big Man or 2 guard need.

You are a Harden Stan though. If I remember correctly didn't you have Arizona State in the Elite 8??

Thabeet is trash to me...yes he is active defensively but he has no offensive game to speak of...to me he isn't worth a top 5 pick...

 

[jordanhead2]

Clippers could be nasty next year.

 

[kb8virginia]

Congratulations Clippers! Griffin will be a very good addition to them....

so how is he different from dwight howard then? howard is only bigger and stronger.. but howard doesnt really have any offensive game either... he'll justthrow up that pathetic one handed hookshot off one leg.

 

[burns1923]

What are the chances Griffin stays with the Clips long-term?

That zany $tern. Always up to orchestrating something.

Bill Simmons is right: putting great rookies on bad, going nowhere teams is no good.

The team rarely gets better, the rookie learns a culture of losing, and wastes valuable years of his career.

Conversely, putting someone like Derrick Rose on a bubble team like Chicago DID make them better.

Plus, does the NBA really need another great big man in the West?

Congrats to us Clipper fans

Indeed. However, if they don't pick Griffin I will officially renounce my fan-hood. This one is a no brainer.

I been sayin that.

and they'll say that he had great workouts for them....bring in guys like paul davis to go against him.
baron has gotta be happy though after the Brand debacle.

 

[dyyhard]

can they make it any more obvious who they are taking?

 

[monopolyman630]

4???

Are you kidding me? Thats the worst pick!

I don't think theres any way Rubio falls to 4?

 

[downtown43]

Wizards got daggered again. I'm trying to push it from my mind.

I will commit that if we take Harden.

blake is nice but he is one ugly mofo
