The Official 2012 NBA Draft Talk Thread

[jaguar paw]

Spurs and Celtics will workout Drummond, uhh what?



Also, I see why the Cavs want Harrison Barnes so much:



Close friends with Kyrie.

Kyrie is tight with MKG as well.

I don't think him being tight with Barnes is the reason why Grant is in love with him. They were hoping to get him last year with the #4 pick but he went back to school.

Their styles fit well. He'd be a decent sidekick to Kyrie.

Drummond meeting with the wizards, cavs, bobcats, and kings. Met with the Blazers yesterday. Thinks his range is 2-5.

Sounds like I need to give Meyers Leonard and Fab Melo a bump in my mock draft. NBA guys really excited about them after the Combine today.

 

[I.V.]

"People really excited about fab melo today at the combine"

- how horrible mistakes happen

 

[MalickSyXShabbaz]

I'd rather just sign Ovinton J'Anthony

that nikkaz a bum

Syracuse guard Dion Waiters canceled all team workouts and interviews at NBA pre-draft camp, source tells Y! Sports.

that nikkaz a bum

he'd fit well on a team that can't accept anything less than a playoff appearance next year.

 

[FreedS[ohh]lave]

Waiters intrigung he just cant shoot..Though it dont matter since being a pro has everything to do with who your college coach is

bro the man can't get to the basket, his jumper fell off, and he's not quick enough to guard any PG's and not strong enough to guard 2's

i used to rate OJ but something happened to that man since his rookie year

all they'd need from him is to play the way he played the first 2 years, and in those 2 years he got a lot of PT. He'd have all that PT here. Also helps that he has a good rapport with Kevin Love and he's got playoff experience that this franchise hasn't had in 8 years. It's Brewster's Millions and Rick didn't come here to develop shyt slowly. There aren't better options available to them with the money they have. It's not the most ideal solution and it's probably not as likely as I'd want it to be, but I'll take this over having to trade the #18th pick or something more for a one year rental of Kevin Martin (and a year or two ago I woulda been doing backflips tryna get Kevin Martin here)

Source believes Waiters has a high draft promise from a team.

already? fukk is up with Toronto?

 

[The War Report]

So, what is Toronto going to do about DeRozen?

 

[trick]

If Toronto's trading for Rudy Gay, I'm guessing DeMar is part of the deal. One of the beat writers here already said ESPN was wrong and that the 8th pick isn't part of the deal cause they think they would be doing Memphis's owners a favour by taking on Rudy Gay's huge contract.

 

[trick]

Also, Colangelo's fukked up multiple times giving up draft picks for nothing. Deng to the Bulls for cap space. Threw in Hibbert in the JO-TJ Ford Pacers deal. The 2nd that the Suns got from the Spurs was thrown by the Raps in the Rasho-Bonner trade turned out to be Goran Dragic. He has a horrible track record.

 

[Rodgers]

TJ moving up the draft Warriors looking at him at 7... love to see him in Nawlins with AD

Darius also gettin some looks at the end of the first

 

[PTBG]

The Charlotte Bobcats are shopping the second overall pick, according to multiple sources.
