nogoodnick Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 I hope he Blazers do trade Eddie Gill for a pick. He's pretty much a worthless bench player in Portland and it would be better for him and the team if he left. Also I really would like to see Telfair playing for the Blazers. If they draft Kirk Snyder in the lottery, they could have their future starting backcourt in this years draft assuming they pan out.
HarleyQuinn Posted June 23, 2004 Report Posted June 23, 2004 Oh My God...the #25 pick in the Mock Draft sounds like the 2nd coming of a Pervis Ellison or Eric Montross *shudder*
Gert T Posted June 23, 2004 Author Report Posted June 23, 2004 So if you guys were the GM of the Orlando Magic, and you're assuming you are trading Tracy McGrady, Juwan Howard and Tyronne Lue for Steve Francis, Cuttino Mobley & Kelvin Cato who would you take with the #1 pick? Â Emaka Okafor or Dwight Howard II? Â I still would take Hoawrd because I do not think you can become a title contender with Francis-Mobley-Okafor. And I think Howard would be ready in 3 years. I guess it just depends on when you want to win.
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted June 23, 2004 Report Posted June 23, 2004 I think if the rumors about them not keeping Francis are true, they take Howard. Also, I've heard the Magic might be willing to swap with the Bobcats for a little something, so obviously they wouldn't object to Howard.
nogoodnick Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 Phoenix just traded the #7 pick to Chicago for pick 31, future 1st rounder and cash. Chad Ford thinks the Bulls are going after Luke Jackson with the pick. If they go with Iguodala at #3 they will have a good young nucleus to rebuild with.  PG Kirk Hinrich SG Luke Jackson SF Andre Iguodala PF Antonio Davis C Eddie Curry  Something like that.
Gert T Posted June 24, 2004 Author Report Posted June 24, 2004 Man Luke Jackson has jumped. And that is humorous how they would now have a good nucleus to rebuild with. Too bad they had the no.2 and 3 pick in the 2001 draft and are "rebuilding again".
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 when someone flies up the draft board thanks to workouts, my natural inclination is to say, "This guy is gonna suck". So naturally I am less than thrilled with were the Bulls are leaning. But it's still better than putting Ben Gordon at shooting guard.
Fökai Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 PG Kirk Hinrich SG Luke Jackson SF Andre Iguodala PF Antonio Davis C Eddie Curry  Something like that.  As of the last Bulls update, Paxson was looking to move Curry, Davis, Crawford and the third pick to a few teams who were interested, namely Boston, Dallas and Seattle (Pierce, Finley and Allen, respectively). I can't see the Bulls drafting someone at #3 with the depth they're going to have at a few positions.  If the Bulls use their picks to draft Iguodala and Jackson, staying put on the roster they have for the 2004-2005 season, here's the depth chart off the top of my head:  C: Chandler / Curry PF: Davis / Jer. Williams SF: Pippen / Iguodala / Robinson / Dupree SG: Crawford / Jackson / Gill PG: Heinrich/ Pargo
therealworldschampion Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 If Billy King reaches and takes Kirk Snyder at #9, he should be canned immediately.
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 Howard goes first. Â Can I buy a Bobcat hat yet?
Guest FrigidSoul Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 Oh dear god...Steven A Smith through the whole thing. Mel Kiper should come out of nowhere and hit him with a steel chair.
2GOLD Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 No way I take Dwight Howard first. No chance. Â Big Mistake by Orlando, and this is got to be dancing time for the Bobcats.
Hogan Made Wrestling Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 Oh dear god...Steven A Smith through the whole thing. Mel Kiper should come out of nowhere and hit him with a steel chair. Beat me to it. Steven A. Smith is so horrible.
Guest FrigidSoul Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 with all of Okafor's back and ankle problems I'm not surprised he was passed over. Howard should be real good
2GOLD Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 I'd rather have the back and ankle problem kid over Howard. The most overrated high school player ever.
Guest FrigidSoul Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 Kwame Brown is the most over-rated High School player ever that I can remember. Â I bet Alf will draw out a name though that will trump us all
Hogan Made Wrestling Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 Oh man am I sick of Vitale's masturbation for NCAA players. I'm so glad Lebron didn't go to college because if he did Vitale would have spontaneously combusted during his draft year.
Guest FrigidSoul Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 Holy shit, Ben Gordon moved up big time. Â Does this mean Jamal Crawford will be moved by the end of the night?
2GOLD Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 I agreed with every word he said. Passing Okafor for Howard is a mistake. And I really don't know what Chicago is thinking here.
Guest FrigidSoul Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 If Jameer Nelson somehow drops to 24 and the Celts don't grab him I'll kill Danny Ainge.
Hogan Made Wrestling Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 I agreed with every word he said. Passing Okafor for Howard is a mistake. And I really don't know what Chicago is thinking here. I don't necessarily disagree with him vis a vis Okafor/Howard, but he does this with EVERY pick. Hell, listen to his analysis of Chicago's pick (and past drafts).
The Czech Republic Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 I've stopped trying to understand the Bulls. Â Hey Steviekick, did the Jazz change their logo?
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 do I have to be a Bulls fan? I wanna be a Bobcat fan.
Guest FrigidSoul Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 also, the choice to draft Ben Gordon got me wondering. Has there been any word on how Jay Williams rehab is going? Does it look like he'll ever make it back to the NBA?
The Czech Republic Posted June 24, 2004 Report Posted June 24, 2004 And the freaking Clippers get the guy from downstate and not the Bulls. This better work out.
JustJoe2k5 Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 He has been rehabbing in Durham the past couple of month
Kurt Angle Mark Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 Draft so far: Â 1.Magic - Dwight Howard 2.Bobcats - Emeka Okafor 3.Bulls - Ben Gordon 4.Clippers - Shaun Livingston 5.Mavericks - Devin Harris 6.Hawks - Josh Childress 7.Bulls - Luol Deng
Guest FrigidSoul Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 I don't think the Bulls have any clue what the point of the draft is. I'm surprised Danny Ainge doesn't work for them.
therealworldschampion Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 The Sixers need Iguodala or Biedrins. They better not take Kirk Snyder.
