I thought Lebron was changing his # from 23 to 6.

Either way, a Lebron #23 jersey will look ********.

I guess it has been like 3 pages since a LeBron to the Knicks discussion...

Well, to be fair, anyone with a Lebron jersey for a team other than the Cavs/team USA/whatever his HS was all look like dumbasses. It isn't just Knicks fans.

Hasheem Thabeet to the D-League.

Not sure what choice the Grizzlies had. I'm pretty sure Mayo and Evans wouldn't be able to coexist together, and it would've been too early for Flynn.

They could have traded the pick or traded down and pick someone like a Jordan Hill

I would have loved to see Mayo and Evans together.

Just imagine if the Thunder picked Tyreke Evans. Russell Westbrook, Tyreke Evans, Kevin Durant= ZOOMG.

I’m sure the Thunder aren’t too upset though, Harden will be a great player.

Bosanac01 · 02-25-2010, 07:13 PM

He's no Tyreke Evans, but he'll be good. They are very much alike age and size wise. Tyreke seems to have a lot of BB IQ though. Guards of the 2009 class are just amazing. One of the best ever, and Ricky Rubio hasn't even played in the NBA yet.

senormysterioso · 02-25-2010, 07:17 PM

I think Tyreke is a better player than Harden, I did at the time of the draft and I do now. But if he was on the Thunder he wouldn't get near as many shots and rightfully so. That offense runs through Durant and it should. I'm glad that Tyreke gets a shot to be the man on his team. It's good to have the stars spread out all over the league.

Kramer · 02-25-2010, 07:28 PM

Oh yeah, if you check out Thorpe’s rookie rankings on ESPN, Collison is number one, then Curry, then Tyreke. Brandon Jennings isn’t even in the top 10 now. Interesting...

Captain Turnover and GS System man do not belong in front of Idris Elba.

He does look just like Stringer

So Caron Butler is banned from chewing straws.

He will never be the same.

That's amazing how it shifted. Brandon Jennings was top 10 in the MVP race at one
point.

It was very early, but still.

senormysterioso · 02-25-2010, 10:40 PM

The thing with Jennings is, he's not putting up the scoring numbers he was so the hype is cooling down. That's because a) he's getting the ball down low to Bogut, Mbah a Moute, and Ilyasova so he's taking less shots b) Ridnour has been getting some of his minutes, because he's playing really good, efficient Scott Skiles basketball right now.

yo123 · 02-25-2010, 10:50 PM

c. He's shooting like 35%. 31% in the last two months.

That's the main reason.

M.O.T.H. · 02-25-2010, 10:56 PM

5 straight wins for the Bucks at least. I heart Ilyasova.

TitansCJftw · 02-25-2010, 11:46 PM

i really like watchin steph curry play this kid has a bright future

yo123 · 02-26-2010, 12:09 AM

Wow. I knew Golden State's defense was bad but this is out of control. Just fire Don Nelson already.

This should surprise no one, Thabeet has no future in the NBA. That pick was a Darko-caliber failure.

Kramer · 02-26-2010, 07:29 AM

He was my bust prediction from this draft class, and sadly Jordan Hill was as well, I kept saying I will be happy with any Knicks pick but Jordan Hill. Well come to think of it, why would Memphis pick a project C at 2nd overall when they had Marc Gasol?

Bad draft position, and no one wanted to trade up.

Kramer · 02-26-2010, 08:55 PM

WOW CRAZIEST KNICKS WIZARDS GAMES EVER FOR TWO CRAPPY TEAMS. Wizards down by 3 with one possesion left no field goals all game then Nick Young makes a 3 to tie it up. Less then 6 seconds left David Lee game winner. Best game of horrible teams ever.
