    I'm surprised Richard Hendrix, Devon Hardin, and Bill Walker have made it this far.

    I fucking knew they wanted him! Hell yeah.

    San Antonio just picked up a massive steal with Goran Dragić!

    I like Singletary as well, I just don't think he has a spot in the NBA.

    Completely agree. The mock drafts make 100% more sense than this draft.

    Yup, I never thought a mock would make more sense than then the real thing. Most mocks are usually pretty crap. However, this 2nd round has just been the most ridiculous thing I've seen.

    I forgot about DeVon Hardin. He's gotta get picked sooner or later. That's ridiculous that all these other random useless guys get picked before him.

What the ****? Dude wasn't even a good player, or a starter in college. Queens are on some crack, first taking Thompson, then Singletary, and now Ewing Jr. lol</div>
    I personally like Sean Singletary, and he does kind of fill a need for the Kings. However, the rest of those picks are pretty retarded. And I think the real reason that Patty Jr. is in the league is based on last name alone. However, to his credit, he's a solid defensive player.
    </div>
    Well I can't really comment because I admit I'm not a big college hoops guy, but based on the mock drafts I have seen, Singletary is projected on the lower end of the second round, and Ewing Jr. wasn't even projected to be drafted. Jason Thompson also wasn't projected to get drafted until the late/early second round

    Batum for Arthur and Dorsey is a good trade. It's good for the Rockets cause they get a pretty good scorer in Arthur and a back-up center is Dorsey. But not, going to lie, is this is true, it's amazing for the Blazers.

    Gotta give credit to you cpaw. You nailed that Portland trade.

    M, you can bounce if you gotta. I got this last half of the 2nd round.

    So, here's a chance for the Wizards to find a future replacement for Jamison. They should take Walker here.

    And as I projected, Bill Walker to the Wizards. That's one hell of a steal this late in the draft.

    Seattle's having a hell of a draft, IMO. Covering all needs.

    I'll be good to go for a bit more, but you can definitely take over the board if you want.
