    This is true. Many people are saying we aren't keeping the picks. I'm not convinced because I don't think there's anything out there, but who knows... :dunno:

    Yes, but even that is subjective

    Yeah, I know and I have the same fear... just saying you should prepare to get shocked because your predictions have been off lately.

    Technically I predicted NO would get the first pick in one of the threads on here, so look out

    Trade the pick for a 27 year-old backup PF? Fuck that noise, Hollinger!

    Never saw that post. I have seen you repeatedly state that NJ would land in the top 3.

    BTW-posted an article ( opps, I guess???) about NBA executives being skeptical and thinking the process is fixed (giving you credit as potentially being an NBA executive :) )

    Did you se the article about NBA executives thinking the draft is rigged? Might be in the locked or deleted threads (BBF here we go again)

    BTW- does it count if you predict more than one team is going to win the lottery?

    I predicted NO would win and Brooklyn would move into the top three. Only when Deron said he would leave without Howard in Brooklyn did I think they would outright win it

    The thing to ask yourself is, who would San Antonio pick?

    Lillard and Henson or Zeller?

    Ha! When was the last time San Antonio picked in the lottery? Those guys are the shit at picking diamonds in the end of the first round.

    True, but they tend to pick players that are either ready (upper classmen, or European experience) or guys they can stash in Europe until ready--with a few exceptions.

    This is a dicey draft when it comes to guys who are ready. Seems like there's more projects than there are sure things.
