    No, they're just idiots that want to fleece New Orleans. Vasquez and a likely lotto pick in 2014 just to move up 5 spots in a weak draft. GTFO

    Maybe they like Bennett? One of Bennett, Len, Oladipo or McL will be available there.

    I can't remember a less attractive #1 pick since the Olawakhandi draft!

    The Pelicans could have a backcourt of Davis and Noel. That's sick defensively.

    That was a pretty good draft, just poor scouting on the Clippers' part.
    Mike Bibby, Vince Carter, Antwan Jamison, Dirk Nowitzki, and Paul Pierce all went in the Top 10 of that draft.

    Watching the 2010 draft right now on NBATV and it proves how this is all a crap shoot! All the so called "expert" on the set and advanced scouting doesn't mean shit!

    Burke!? He's like a poor man's Damian Lillard. I'd prefer Schroeder who does everything that Lillard doesn't.

    That would be the tallest backcourt in history.

    (I think you mean frontcourt.)

    Damn....... ESPNStats just tweeted that Greg Oden has played the least amount of minutes by a #1 pick in the history of the NBA......even FEWER than Anthony Davis!

    Pacers push to swap Gerald Green and No. 23 for Jimmer just got a little more realistic. Larry Bird loved Jimmer in 2011 Draft.

    1989 was worse. I'd take Noel and Len over Ellison and Ferry. Of course Kemp and Divac came out of that draft later, but they weren't considered that good at the time of the draft.

    One of the primary targets of Oklahoma City's pursuit of a Top 5 pick on Thursday, sources tell Y! Sports: Maryland 7-footer Alex Len.

    I realize there are some perspective issues on this photo, but Len looks really tall. Oladipo looks really short. When they measured Noel did they push his hair down? All the way???
