He’s made a career now out of pulling tall guys from Eastern Africa and hyping them as NBA all stars. Thon was arguably the best of this type of player. Sky Smith badly needs a second hit.

Every player the spurs drafted tonight will contribute and fit their system. I can’t believe there wasn’t a guy we didn’t think would fit our system. Considering we have the same damn system, I’m wasted and I’m out.

Just had the realization he hasn't been drafted. Granted, I've been drinking.

I knew way too many dudes stayed in the draft, but the reality of that looks mighty crazy right now. What a disaster for college ball.

Isn't Gerry and the Pacemakers playing this summer at the Durand Corn Fest? That doesn’t sound “run out” to me!

Even if he made the pick he'd be answering questions like "What do you think about this pick?" "How happy were you that (this player) was still available?"

At least now the questions will probably be switched up and maybe a little more difficult than they would've been.
