    This year it will be at Toyota Center for the 1st time since the 06 draft where we drafted Rudy Gay and traded him.

    It's about time they moved it back to the TC. Didn't like it at Dave and Busters and House of Blues. Anyone else going?????

    Not at the moment.

    But we do have two 1st round picks, 14th and 16th pick.

    No, it went to Detroit (#44) from the Chase Budinger trade.

    I'll go if they have $1 beer and food + a guarantee that we will make some sort of trade on draft night. Otherwise these draft parties are very uninteresting to me.

    $1 beer at the Toyota Center? Don't push your luck, bud.

    I remember going to House of Blues and the beers were ~$10. Pretty painful... I could understand paying that amount at a concert or something, but at a anti-climatic Pat Patterson draft party during Happy Hour was ridiculous.

    I'll probably check it out regardless...

    I think this is the year we make a big splash although Donuts could end up being a very good player.

    Dave and Busters on Richmond was kinda whack. Was way too crowded. HoB was kinda whack too. I kinda actually want to watch the draft. if it's at Toyota Center, I might go.

    And we're drafting an undersized power forward from an SEC school.

    Yeah I'll probably be there.

    Have you guys heard of the 16 playoff team pack they're currently offering for next year? It's pretty rare to have a game pack that large with so many premium teams. I'll prob look into that as well.
