    TNT broadcast just said that one of Sullingers' legs is shorter than the other.

    Probably crosses him off Portlands' big board.

    Wooo, Drummond just played himself into another year at UCONN or a lower draft pick.

    Drummond looks a long way away from tapping into his potential. His play yesterday will either drop him out of the top-3 or he goes back to school.

    Being the same size and similar athletic ability at the same age, Oden he is not.

    The only plus I saw out of him was that he really jams up the paint and makes guys think twice about driving the lane. He's definitely a project. Its whether you want to wait 3 or 4 years.

    Rivers didn't help his draft status today. He looked like a ballhog and forced a lot of stuff. Doc should tell him to go back to school for another year.

    Thomas Robinson looked like a beast as usual while he was getting double-teamed all night.

    A Rivers and Robinson draft would make me a very happy man.

    To me Rivers moves and has the clutch gene like a certain all-star that played for Portland and Robinson is just a guy who goes 110% all game and would be a great addition.

    With the size of Davis' legs, he should be able to put on much more upper body strength.

    So I just got done playing Ford's lottery simulator. It gave us Andre Drummond at six and Anthony Davis at number 1 first try. Mark it down folks, it's gonna happen :ghoti:

    I got Harrison Barnes and Jeremy Lamb twice in a row.

    What's Harrison Barnes like? Last year he was the shit, but this year I hear "one dimensional" and "Danny Granger". Does that sound fair?

    A.) Barnes is playing much better this year.

    B.) Granger is supposed to be a bad thing? Grangers' has multiple AS appearances.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    If we ended up with the 6th pick (Nets) and the 9th or 10th pick (our own), would that be enough to entice say the Bobcats for the #1 pick? I'm stoked to have two lottery picks, but Anthony Davis is the only sure thing, imo. If I'm chad, I do whatever it takes to get AD.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    I just don't see it. Bobcats want the sure thing. If they get the #1 pick, they will keep it. But something crazy happened. D will said he is for surely going to opt out this summer. Maybe jersey tries and tank to get the best possible chance? It would be nice if we go 4th.
