2005 NBA DRAFT DAY TODAY !

[SkipToMy_Lou]

Magic traded Andriskevicious to the cavs for a future second round pick and cash.

[Fresh8]

Oh man, The Lakers took that Von Wafer guy with the secodn round pick.. Ronny Turiaf I can live with... Bynum, I have to live with it.. but for God's sake: Ukic was still on the board. A pro PG with 5 years of pro experience who is 6'5"... perfect for the tirangle.. and did i mention: immediate impact!!! What was Kupchak thinking?

[The X]

damn, just realised Matt Walsh went undrafted....bad info I guess

[Amphatoast]

so they knicks actually keep their draft pick in the trade? Thats good, just Kurt for Q. Rich+ Nate. Kurt will be missed though
Guess its Sweetney time

[Old School Fool]

Is this the NEW Pistons Logo I've heard about in that "new uniforms" post?

If it is, thats fucking sweet.

[The X]

I'm bombing the STAPLES center, I'll see you all when I get back. Andrew fucking Bynum.

guess I got something right in my last mock draft

[MaD_hAND1e]

Suns got shafted trading Q AND Nate Robinson..... Thomas is aging... Q for Kurt Thomas would've been fair. Robinson would've been great for the Suns, but does this mean the Suns are gonna change their offense next season and not go for a fast break game like this season?

The Hawks probably got the best out of the draft, Salim Stoudamire and Marvin Williams

[Impose]

the suns will still run, having thomas just gives them another dimension for their offence

[Fenix]

This is the most interesting draft evah . Cupcake and Bab-cock are going to get castrated and I just fell in love with Bird and Ainge (just listening to 'Sexual Healing' - no kidding) . They were the ones with enough brain to draft Green and Granger. Why the hell didn't Bobcats nab Green with their second pick? They already had their guy from NC! And WTF did New Jersey just do? Aren't they in need for a big man? And yeah, Louis Williams was 'for sure' that he's getting drafted in 1st round .

[The X]

just like all those other high schoolers who thought they were gonna get drafted

I wonder what Randolph Morris & co. are thinking now

[SkipToMy_Lou]

Monta Ellis is a steal, picked so late in the draft you can't really lose anything and he has incredible potential.

[SkipToMy_Lou]

Anyone have a list of players that went undrafted ?

I know a couple
Randolph Morris
Luke Schenscher
Azubuike

[fgrep15]

^ Agree with you. I can't believe we blew a perfect chance to land Green, Granger, when both of them might have been expected to picked before us.... This is unbelievable, I can't even find words to describe how I feel. Looks like Babcock is still using his spectacular intellegence and is drafting based on need rather than talent...........

At least we got Graham at 16th.........

..the problem I have is that it didn't even fill a need, CV is not even a center

At least the other picks were good...

add Matt Walsh, Sean Banks, John Gilchrist and Jawad Williams to that list

[SkipToMy_Lou]

Gilchrist and Williams will get signed at some stage probably, they have some talent.

[The X]

and Kennedy Winston and Anthony Roberson also went undrafted

EDIT: and Dwayne Jones

CV will intimidate people, even Big Ben, using his eyebrows, or lack thereof.

Oh man, The Lakers took that Von Wafer guy with the secodn round pick.. Ronny Turiaf I can live with... Bynum, I have to live with it.. but for God's sake: Ukic was still on the board. A pro PG with 5 years of pro experience who is 6'5"... perfect for the tirangle.. and did i mention: immediate impact!!! What was Kupchak thinking?

Passing up on Roko was probably Phil's decision, Roko is a little bit too wild for PJ.. What was Mitch thinking? Uhmm...probably this: Sasha Vujacic and Phil is gonna shit on me if i pick Ukic...

[Fresh8]

At least we can sign Luke S... we need all the frontcourt help we can get lol... But seriously, Charlotte had a good draft!

Felton and May together along with Meka...

I reckon I don't buy the argument that Phil didn't want Roko, because Von Wafer's a fucking psycho who in pre season workouts elbowed another player in the face deilberately and made his nose bleed. What a shit of a draft, the 2nd round is where Kupchak could've redeemed himself but apart from Turiaf he's done fuck all.

[MaD_hAND1e]

Did anyone notice David Stern saying "With the 4th Pick in the 2004 NBA Draft, the New Orleans Hornets select Chris Paul..."

[Fenix]

BTW, NBA got a new 'best psysique in town' nominee. Ladies and gentlem, I present you Joey Graham:

[J@3]

You have a strange obsession with other men.

That being said, holy shit

[Fenix]

I have a obsession with other men? Leave my hair alone, you freak .

[Fresh8]

Holy.. Joey is a freak! lol
