Ricky Rubio has girly eyelashes
i say that with envy
I am more anxious about trades than who picks who tonight (with the exception of who we pick, of course)
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
You envy those lashes too?
:)
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I have crazy long eyelashes.
I’ve had people ask me if I’m wearing mascara before, which is actually pretty annoying.

I'll trade you!
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
That's worse than me
I have a pretty “neat” handwriting. I’ve had a lot of girls tell me “Oh, I like your handwriting. Especially your capital A’s”
One time I forgot to write my name in a test and my teacher called out “Here’s a test with no name. It’s probably a girl’s because of the handwriting.”
Oh, and btw. I’m new here. Nice place.
Go Mavs!
-Angry fan of a First Place Team
That's so embarrassing!
And welcome :)

Dunleavy is looking important and busy on TV
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
he is important.
what other coach gets the luxury of putting a crappy team on the floor every year without getting fired?

Ha, good point
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
No boos for Stern tonight?

Stuart Scott makes un-funny joke
News flash

I checked out your blog the other day, by the way
I thought it was really interesting
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Thanks :)
It’s my side project while I look for a real job. Unfortunately jobs in journalism are pretty scarce at the moment, what with newspapers dying and whatnot.

It's a shame
But blogs are much more accessible, in my opinion…you’ll get your big break before you know it :)
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Wow, that jacket was horribly tacky
I didn’t watch the lottery, so that was my first time seeing that
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Ricky Davis is still in the league?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Ha, that's so true
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I thought Pop was a coach/GM combo...?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Mavs Targeting Calathes? Really? REALLY?
Ugh… There’s the cure… A guy we won’t see in the United States for another year… A guy that isn’t really big enough to play shooting guard, but doesn’t necessarily have the skills to play point guard on this level… A guy that does NOTHING to address anything that currently ails this team…
If that’s the pick, I give up…
This guy can act a bit more excited
But then again, he’s going to the Clippers…
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I didn't even see Wes's report that
Calathes might be the guy. should be good but PROJECT. Bleah.
Does Zach Phillips have to choke a bitch to get to Frisco?
we dont need projects
we need players who can help us now and that isnt happening at 24!

I'm going to pay attention to the little trivia bits
This guy wants to host SNL, apparently, and he records the show every week
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
That was a bit awkward
I love forced laughter…
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Ha, they're the best at it!

Is Darko for Q Rich going to happen?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I like Thabeet's look
The color scheme reminds me of the 80s for some reason
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Horrible planning on my part, bu I have somewhere to be
won’t be back until 8CT. Hopefully nothing crazy happens in the next hour.

Is Amare to GS happening?
I got a text from a friend in San Fransisco who says it’s done. I can’t find anything though.
Does Zach Phillips have to choke a bitch to get to Frisco?
I heard about that, but no confirmations either
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"

You are on fire tonight, ptrck

it's been really hot here as well
It rained today so it cooled off very slightly

OKC could end up being the new Blazers

Battled asthma as a child
Is that the best they can come up with for a fun fact? That’s not even fun
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
You would be correct
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Crap, missed the trivia again
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Sergio Rodriguez traded to the Kings?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I think he's so cute
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Let's not lament...
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
oh I'm not, not at all
all will be all right when we acquire either Brian Scalabrine for Stack’s magic contract
i want rubbbbbbiiiiooo
marie my wife thinks he is cute too
"Daryl (Morey, the Rockets general manager) and I were talking this morning. We both discussed how great Tracy is in the playoffs. There's very few people who have the ability to step up their games in the playoffs and he does. So we're not looking to run away from Tracy." - Houston Rockets Owner, Leslie Alexander
muhahahaha WTF?!?!
Great minds think alike :)
Seriously, he’s so cute…those eyelashes, too…
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"

great draft

LOVE Rubio...
Think he’s gonna be a star…
Rubio and then Flynn? HUH…
I am missing all of the fun facts
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
TRADE!
this is a trade

muhahahaha WTF?!?!
ack, post fail
Rubio is the better PG. Hard to think they’d trade him
-Angry fan of a First Place Team
My Rubio to Dallas hope is not dead yet...
After this latest pick
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
dont tease me

I'd fucking freak out if that happened
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Same here
I don’t watch college ball, so these players are all unknown to me…I only know Rubio
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
this might be a case of
taking the best player avaliable….but there has to be a trade….
my sig is better than yours
Flynn hasn't grown since 8th grade
another fun fact
Is that a real fun fact
I’m missing all of them, I’m doing a horrible job paying attention
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
This trade is finalized, at last
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"

Why are they booing
Do they hate this guy or did they want him for NY?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I did watch Curry play a little
Wasn’t his dad an NBA player?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
was it any surprise they said the warriors had 46 line-ups?
Good memories!!!
It's sharp
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Oh boy, it's NY's turn
These fans are never happy
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I love that little chime that plays before the pick is announced
I kind of want it as my text alert…
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
But how do you do that on an iPhone...?
You bought yours already, right…or did you wait for the new one after all?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
They don't like him?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
You know
I agreed with that at first but now I actually think he’ll be a pretty nice player.
Does Zach Phillips have to choke a bitch to get to Frisco?
Come on, I want some trades!
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Damn, dude
Can you pick some lottery numbers for me? And Powerball?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I wonder who will get Jennings
And Hansbrough
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
jennings is a lot of hype
he could go 10 or 20

Seriously unhappy about this

I'm apparently out of the loop today...
I didn’t find out about Michael Jackson until about an hour ago

Yeah, that was sad
I found out about that when I got home today. Farrah Fawcett is gone, too.
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I've read rumors Amare is negotiating an extension with GS...
Not confirmed, but we’ll see… It makes sense they’d draft Curry for the Suns…
Holliday is next in my IMO
I think Milwaukee will resign Charlie and thus cannot afford Ramon Sessions…
I would like the Mavs to make a run at Sessions!
Who's the PG for the Bucks right now...Sessions?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Soooo many PG's
I know that was the strength, but still…
Does Jennings still have the awesome fade
I missed him on the TV
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
He's not at the draft...
Last I remember seeing him, he had a nasty mohawk… LOL
That flattop fade was NICE though…
I am really going to miss Courtney Lee
Such potential and showed maturity as a rookie
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I liked him too
wonder how many years he will be playing after C.Lee?
Devin?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
oops. Apparently me too. :(
I meant Vince Carter since he was traded for C.Lee
Devin and C. Lee out there together...
I might just cry
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Maybe he's live blogging?
He’s still working for them
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I think they prefer the orange guy
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
taj gibson is my 24th pick for the mavs
unless ty lawson somehow falls
for that crazy ass 59th pick i would like danny green (but he will be off the board)
lawson and green are dreams ... gibson will be there
he is a energy guy who can bang a little
by mrichardson70 on Jun 25, 2009 7:50 PM CDT up reply actions
unless they had been submitted to the nba prior to the draft
at which point they can be announced in the middle of the draft…I think.
Here.
There is a strong possibility that the Stephen Curry pick was made for the Suns. It seems Phoenix was concerned Curry would be taken with one of Minnesota’s two picks. We could be looking at an announcement next week that Amare Stoudemire is going to Golden State in a deal for Andris Biedrins, Stephen Curry and some other Warriors players like Marco Belinelli and/or Brandan Wright.
Does Zach Phillips have to choke a bitch to get to Frisco?
Yeah, they just said that this deal won't be closed tonight
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Hey, there he is
Show the fade!
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Who's that guy with the crazy beard?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
LOL Jennings is a punk...
Deciding to show up and take the attention after he figures out things went well… Wow…
He’s a hell of a talent, but I just get the vibe he’s a self-absorbed douche…
Skill-set Allen Iverson Lite...
Attitude.. I’m not sure…
Attitude.. I’m not sure…Darius was just lazy… He didn’t really think he was God’s gift to life itself…
that could be a steal for detroit
if he had stayed in college another year, he would’ve been a high lottery pick for sure…
my sig is better than yours
This guy looks Kevin Martin-ish
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
That is a scary thought
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Great skills...
Frail as ever and he plays SOFT…
It ain’t like Anthony Randolph where he was a savage at LSU… Daye plays scared…
His dad looks young
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Ha, Dan Dickau
What’s that dude up to, other than slamming car doors on Dirk’s hand (back in the day)
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Maynor or Teague..
If we draft Calathes, I’m driving to Dallas and burning the AAC to the ground…
I don't know much about those guys ...
But from what I’m reading … I already agree with you totally … We get this guy and he keeps playing on europe one year and comes here to do nothing … Is maynor that good? Simmons and Chad Ford said he was …
Help me out
Why is there such a belief that Calathes is the guy?
by brettgardner on Jun 25, 2009 8:09 PM CDT up reply actions
I see.
It’d be a gentle nudge to the groin because I love instant gratification, but I’ve read good things about the guy.
by brettgardner on Jun 25, 2009 8:11 PM CDT up reply actions
Holiday looks uncomfortable
he is now moving into the playoff teams and a back up PG draft selection
So it looks like Min will keep both Rubio and Flynn.
Does Zach Phillips have to choke a bitch to get to Frisco?
That sucks
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
No, one will be traded.
Or else they will be clogged with Guards, or they plan to keep Rubio in Spain.
Minny snapped him up
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Rubio should play with "Ricky" on the back of his jersey
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Beat you :)
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Washington Mutual, I think?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I like that one better, haha
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
That's three guards to Minnesota!
Rubio to Dallas, please…
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
At least it's a cool city
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Ah, Lawson is going to DEN
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
It's a shame Minny will not pick before Dallas ...
They have to get Calathes so we can’t screw this all up .
That guy looked asleep for a second, haha
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"

"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
So who do we hope for now?
I’m going along with the consensus
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I'd take maynor or either of the pitt forwards...
calathes is looking pretty likely though

and I’m still crying over the Pacers pick
You're not happy with Hansbrough?

haha
you should see the pacers blog right now…they are all soooo upset
but hey, we have like 7 white guys now lol
Haha
I wonder if I can name them…
Murphy, Dunleavy, Foster, Diener…Hansbrough
I’m missing some
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"

I like watching those games…I just need to watch some basketball, actually
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Me too.
2 yrs ago watching Brandon Bass you could tell me could make the team
It was great discovering him, so to speak
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
There goes Maynor
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I think the point was that two spots lower they'd still get a comparable player...
and pick-up some xtra pix
I heard they wanted

The New York Knicks are working hard to cut a deal with the Minnesota Timberwolves to acquire guard Ricky Rubio, a Western Conference said.
One league GM said a deal "isn’t 100 percent," but likely.

Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan was on the same pitching staff with Danny Darwin during the 1986 through 1988 seasons. Both were described by Milo Hamilton as "tall, tough Texans." It was a source of debate amongst Astros players and fans over who would win in a fight, Ryan or Darwin. Though Astros pitcher Bob Knepper attempted to set up a fight between the two during spring training in 1988, manager Hal Lanier stopped it before it could commence. Many experts, including Astros shortstop Rafael Ramirez, felt that Darwin would win because he "looked like someone no man would want to mess with."

by MeanMr.Mustard on Jun 25, 2009 8:53 PM CDT up reply actions
well...
if shawn bradley had been picked #24 we would all be claiming how great a player he turned out to be. He was a good C for what he was. Basically a shot blocker, which is exactly what Thabeet is… who was just picked #2.
The fact that Bradley went #1, was paid a ton of money, the expectations were huge for him.
Josh Hamilton = Baseball Jesus : Chris Davis = Baseball Jesus' Younger Brother
shawn bradley
was not a good basketball player by any stretch of the imagination. He was just so tall that he could contribute in spite of himself. If he’s 7’0 instead of 7’6, he flames out in a year
by MeanMr.Mustard on Jun 25, 2009 9:03 PM CDT up reply actions
learn to read
I said he was good for what he was… a shot blocker. My point is expectations can sometimes glass over an opinion of what someone truley is.
One idea of Mullens last year.
“B.J. Mullens (C, 7-1, 260, Ohio State) — With the size of a true center and freakish athletic ability for a player as big as he is, Mullens has the potential to develop into a #1 pick. InsideHoops.com editor Jeff Lenchiner was in shock when first seeing BJ’s hops.”
This kid has some talent, and to say he’s horrible is just absurd.
Josh Hamilton = Baseball Jesus : Chris Davis = Baseball Jesus' Younger Brother
He's 6'10, he a great athlete
aaaaand he averaged less than five rebounds and only one block per game last year.
www.mavsmoneyball.com
*gloss
but anyway, this doesn’t disprove my point. “Size of a true center,” “freakish athletic ability;” these things do not an NBA center make. Olowokandi comes to mind as another good example.
Good shot blocker? Sure. Skilled NBA player? No. Falling in love with size on draft day fails more often than not.

Crap, he compares his game to KG, Dirk and Amare. But in reality he is a 10 and 5 guy.

Awesome
If a team is confident in the way they develop bigs, B.J. Mullens has enough natural talent and athleticism to be a worthwhile project.

Because this is Dallas?
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
Because the Spurs are better than us?
He’s going to be a GREAT rebounder. At the very least.
Hill doesn't suck...
I like Hill… Just not sure I would have traded all the way up to 5 at the expense of most of our trade chips to get him…
When do we pick in the second round?
Sorry, I forgot
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I thought that guy is from Iceland...?
Maybe not, but not Sweden…

Stefansson?

Here's a trade we didn't know, but it's not exciting
"Oh, get a job? Just get a job? Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into job land, where jobs grow on jobbies!"
I knew it.
Should have bought that pick and took Blair.

Chad Ford on Blair:
Are you kidding me? How do these guys fall into San Antonio’s lap? Tony Parker at 29? Ginobili late in the second? Now Blair here? This is a great pick for the Spurs. He may be able to start in San Antonio if Duncan plays the 5. This late in the draft, his knee issues aren’t really much of a risk — he’s just a really cheap rebounder. The Spurs are getting an A+ tonight.
Salt → wound.

I'm not buying it.
I have no qualms about eating crow if wrong, but I can’t imagine Blair ever being anything more than a foul collector and overall clogger.

WAY better here than at 24...
I like it a lot more at this point…
Definitely.
It’s like when nobody wanted the Rangers to draft Borbon in the first round, and then they got him later and it was cool.

Nice.
in more Ranger news Chris Davis is 3-3 today!

what time does the draft start?
"Daryl (Morey, the Rockets general manager) and I were talking this morning. We both discussed how great Tracy is in the playoffs. There's very few people who have the ability to step up their games in the playoffs and he does. So we're not looking to run away from Tracy." - Houston Rockets Owner, Leslie Alexander

If he had stayed, he had a chance to be a first rounder next year...

He shouldn’t have left this early, but it’s not like he went in having misinterpreted his value… He knew where he was going, and he was OK with that…
But yeah, A&M will miss him… Especially if Kourtney Roberson doesn’t get qualified…

I can't tell whether it was a shitty night or not.
Beaubois definitely exceeded my initial expectations but he’s going to get stocked in Europe.
A very useful move to get Calathes – is he still going to Greece? I’m thinking so.
If they sign Dionte Christmas and bring him in to play some summer league I’ll be pretty happy.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
Rodrigue is comin to Dallas
Rick and Donnie already said he will be on the summer team and will play this year, Calathes is going over and Nivins will also play in the summer league as well, I thought Christmas got drafted but if not and we get him it will feel like Christmas, overall I’m very happy w/ the draft, Calathes is more of a SG that can pass and even though he is going over we will get something this year in Rodrigue, the kid has a 6-10 wingspan was only .03 seconds slower than Devin and was only 1 inch lower than Blake Griffin in touch the top of the backboard contest

If we get Christmas
I will be overjoyed. I’d like to see how a shooter like him (or get someone like Josh Carter from Texas A&M) adjusts in the NBA.
I still kinda see Beaubois heading back to Europe for a year or two before he comes back, but I’ll wait till summer league and see what he does there. Of course getting mentored by Kidd would be great for him.
