    Just because Aldridge was consulted doesn't mean he's coming back.

    Just 2 years ago as a FRESHMAN at Indiana, he was good for 17 points, 13.6 rebounds and 2.1 blocks (adj per 40) shooting 52% from the field and 48% from '3'. Through in his Okafor sized hands, 37" vertical and massive wingspan and I like the looks of this a LOT in a year or so.

    In that case we could have got a future 2nd at the very least. Our cupboard is getting quite bare when it comes to picks.

    Vonleh will be great with Leonard, bye kaman!

    Henderson is the Wes' replacement. We are going to target a shooter now in the draft.

    Hey, he could've been traded for Kwame Brown - that would've been a #1 pick!!!!!

    How much more space do we need for LA and Hibbert? LA wanted it the first time, maybe they are making a play for the big center.
    If he opts out...

    Then they will draft a SF

    Damn, Rasta is so mad, he actually changed his avatar. I don't ever remember a different avatar for him since I've been here.

    No I completely understand. I just loved watching him develop from his wide eyed rookie year starting through all the years of change--the one constant was Batum/LA/Wes.

    Just blur out everyone but Lillard. That's really the only safe play.

    Wonder what the rush was to do this now instead of waiting til the draft is over. Timing definitely interesting

    Yeah, it's not like a pick was included. Unless we're planning on moving one or both somewhere else with our #23.

    Can we trade Vonleh? What if some team in the top 10 wants Vonleh and we package him with our pick?
