At pick #14

Are there any really young, raw prospects at 6’9" or taller with great athletic ability and length who are at least 15 pounds under weight? If so, that’s our guy!

A couple worth having if we’d played our cards right. We had a pretty good shot at a high pick a couple of weeks ago but we are regressing badly now.

Now wheres the rubbers? Whose got the rubbers?
I noticed there's so many of them
and there's really not that many of us.

KEWL, we haven't done so well at the other picks.

Last year we got the dsteal of the draft. What was that pick?

Anthony Morrow?

But he wasn’t drafted.

We should just sell/trade the pick

and draft from the d league. Seems to work out well for us.

I think he was referring to the #14 pick from last draft

The other Anthony…

I don’t agree that he was a steal, but that’s what “dungeness crabdribble” is saying.

Haha I was trying to make a joke.

I’m encouraged by many of Randolph’s obvious gifts, but calling him the steal of the 2008 NBA Draft at this point is pretty far-fetched. He’s currently rated as the 32nd best rookie on David Thorpe’s rookie ratings (arguably the best rook rankings out there.

Now I’m not saying he can’t very well be the steal of this draft when it’s all said and done (it took Steve Nash quite awhile to blossom), but right now that’s a very curious claim. Again way too early to tell.

When I think taking quite a while to blossom

Chauncey Billups is the first person to come to my mind.

ya probabaly a bit of hyperbole but other so called

experts say he could end up being the best player in last years draft. If that is the case then I think we did well at the 14th pick.

Well the Dub's will get pounded by the Lakers to start things off

Great. A super-generous schedule and fluke hot streak. Just what we need to give our front office the assurance that they’re making “good” decisions, as well as ensure that our fanbase remains emotionally attached to bad basketball players.
