this is big time stuff
portland is a instant title contender.

No way. Give him the ball and he will do fine. There is very little on the point pressure in the NBA. There are no zone traps. With the team they have they will be pushing the ball which is his strength. He can develop with the team. If he were going to a playoff team i would be worried but the guy has tremendous athlietic skills. very tough defender.

Not really.

I would not go that far.
But they really have a lot of upside.
They should be a lot of fun to watch.

Aldridge actually might be their best player.
The guy has continually improved. He is turning
into a level headed Rasheed with less range.

Roy is a really good player.

I admit i didnt see the Nevada guy play but Arthur is a better player than Hickson

He is indeed. I think he got injured, so he kind of hid at
the end of the season.

The Bobcats couldnt win in the greek league.

not really ? they were already with oden, hes going to be the most dominant big man in the league... big time back court now.

arthur is better now for sure.. and the cavs should be drafting for now.. not the future.

I laughed. :D

Did Sumitas spike your drink? They are 2 years away from being a serious team. Rookie point guards dont win championships. Plus they lack depth in the frontcourt. Oden has yet to play a game so he is really still a rookie. Jack was a key guy for them.

You and I have very diff. views on PG.
Thats OK.

Ryan Anderson, the American version of Okur

o boy chuckles... what are your odd's on the making the playoffs, and winning a first round series ?

nets are doing some big things.

True. Your version is a college or high school version. Mine is an NBA version

Just not as big.

Westbrook reminds me a lot of Kevin Johnson

Yeah Okur is a large dude.

touche'

I dont like seeing the major scorers getting worn down having to
handle the ball too much. Lebron, Kobe... Gotta be able to set up
your stars.

they may be an 8 seed or 7 depending on Golden State self destructing.

My #1 rated power forward in this draft:





My #1 rated point guard in this draft:

I'm sure Kobe and leBron will appreciate the olympic roster of PG's after what they have been through the last few years

That is messed up

Dear PG1985,
Jay Bilas just said Kosta Stifoulous has a chance to be "special". Remember what i said about him liking everybody?

Of course who didnt see Utah drafting a white guy....

Of course Tyler Hansbrough wasnt available yet...

You're right - I forgot OJ Mayo was coming out early.

I'm trolling as IMUS.

Gotta bring in the Mormons.
Thank God Malone drove an 18-wheeler or they would have hated him.

i know, you were right bilas loves everyone.... chuckles you are the man

He cant really come on and say they s uck.
The teams have reasons for drafting them,
he just restates this.

He might be...

is a great start

At some point you gotta say that somebaody simply isnt that good. The amount of guys that are called "special" players on draft day that are called stiffs a few months later is alot.

i have been saying none of them are that good...weak draft overall

bayliss to portland is huge, trust me on this one....HUGE

Lots of could be foreign players taken.

Give the Spurs Chalmers. Cause I want him.
Please.

He could say something like he has limited skills. Calling a guy who has like zero chance of being a 10 and 5 guy, special is a joke.

what do you think of beasley ?

Ok.
If he can play D I'll go with that.

Never flippn heard of him.
But never heard of Ginobili or Parker either.

lol

Honestly i saw him play twice i think. Derrick Coleman maybe?

I'll answer that. If he stays uninjured, he will be the rookie
of the year. He has to be able to get numbers on that bad team.
And thats what its about, numbers.
