    OK, let's talk about this. I didn't expect him to be the guy.

    I really hope we do that trade for Felton and swap picks. That can still happen right?

    Too bad he was born without a neck. Strikes me as more Webster than Arnold.

    His range was more 30-40 and Chad Fucking Buchanan takes him at #21.

    Nolan Smith also turns 23 next month. That's positively ancient for an NBA rookie.

    Ugh.

    As much as Nate McMillen talks about "scrap and hustle" you'd think they'd take a scrapper when he fell to them.

    I do. In a variety of ways ;)

    Nolan Smith was markedly older than almost everyone he played against this past season. His stats STILL weren't that great, either. I mean... he shot 35% from the college three point line.

    Ugh.

    Let's all hope we are talking about him being the steal of the 2011 draft in a few years. Ya never know!
