ClutchFans 2009 NBA Draft Thread (6/25/2009)

Blair is good but why the hell would we want another good 4 that struggles to get the minutes he deserves?

 

Boy...I sure am missing those mid-pick trade announcement from Stern. Makes that five minute period seem so much longer.

 

Tyler strikes me as someone who will play whatever role you need him to play, which is what may have been part of Bird's rationale for taking him at that slot.

 

Jrue was the only player was consistently projected as a lottery pick. From what I've read he's had poor workouts.

 

Of the players left unselected that is.

 

Seriously? A lottery team?

 

If Budinger falls to the 2nd round,DM should go after him.

 

cp3 for t-mac and AB

 

Yes, because obviously last year we didn't hang with the Lakers for 7 games without Tmac and Yao

 

I heard that in workouts, Stephen Curry ate Jrue's lunch and drank his milkshake.

 

Since when did Drake join the draft?

 

+1. Rox should buy two picks. One for Chase, one for Mullens. Shooter wing and Backup C resolved. And we didn't have to trade Tmac too

 

Philly just picked Holiday.

 

Could see that pick comin', based on ESPN bantering alone.

 

Holiday to the 76ers... Could be a steal.

 

Lawson or Teague, personally I would rather have Teague. Just because of his size and ability to play off guard.

 

Jrue Holiday was Rockets PIck

 

Five years from now, most of these players will be in Europe.

 

I was just speaking in general and not suggesting the Rockets pick him up, since as you mentioned: we've already got quite the logjam at the 4.

Blair's concerns with his knees must be legit and scaring teams off. That's the ONLY way you can rationalize players like Hansbrough and others going before Blair.

 

this statement is true and i agree we will not be in the lottery next year,
BUT do you really think we would have made the playoffs with 82 games of no yao and no tmac? nope.
