[Moochiefried]

With the 334th pick in the draft, the Memphis Grizzlies select...



Jon Brockman!

You can't under estimate the value of having a work horse on your team. Jon Brockman is the type of player that makes everyone around him work harder. He may not be the most talented or gifted athlete, but when he's on the floor he is going to give you 110 percent every time. Having Brockman on the team provides us with some toughness and gives us a competitor who can inspire others to play harder. Having the talent and depth that our team does at every position, we felt that it was important to draft a player who can play spot minutes and push the starters in practice. All in all, Brockman is an awesome guy, a fan favorite, and a great locker room presence, and the more I learn about him, the more I feel like he is a perfect fit for us.

[TASTIC]

Denver, is there any interest in Melo?

[Sun Scorched]

Denver, is there any interest in Melo?

I'm more interested in what you're interested in.

The Clippers select:

DEVIN EBANKS

[lilfishi22]

I wanted Brockman, but I don't think I would've taken him with my upcoming pick. Great hustle player off the bench though.

Would start with Love...but I have interest in Batum, Morrow and Blair...

Kinda depends whether you're ok with adding salary

Well he should be ok with adding salary his total salary is 18 mil. I basically have two players that make more than that by themselves.

[Moochiefried]

spurs are skipped, thunder are up

[Desertfox]

Thunder skipped?

6'10" Point Guards don't grown on trees, so with the 341st pick the Bucks select Nemanja Bjelica. Players like him don't come very often and being the 11th player it comes at very low risk/high reward.



Question, Draft is only for 12 players + coach, but can the rosters go up to 15 players? Picking up unsigned players after the draft?

[Calvin Klein]

Well he should be ok with adding salary his total salary is 18 mil. I basically have two players that make more than that by themselves.

isn't there a minimun salary required too?

[DRK]

Bobcats and 76-ers skipped. Can pick anytime.

Rockets up.

[DRK]

With the 344th Pick in the Draft, the Houston Rockets select...

Sergio Rodriguez!



The Houston Rockets are happy to annouce the addition of Sergio Rodriguez. Rodriguez posseses incredible court vision, and is an excellent passer. He will back up Russell Westbrook at the point, and will allow Randy Foye to move to the 2 and play as a spot up 3pt shooter.

[Miklo]

With their skipped pick (since I was asleep) the Thunder select...



Da'Sean Butler!

[Miklo]

345. Raptors skipped

346. Kings up

76ers have 2 skipped picks; Raptors, Bulls, Spurs, Bobcats have 1 each

Then:
347. Cavaliers
348. Warriors
349. Hawks
350. Timberwolves
351. Suns
352. Lakers (via Pacers)

[JasonDaPsycho]

Spurs selects Alonzo Gee.

Decent potential for an undrafted player. Might be good some day. Even if he doesn't, he's the 11th man on the roster.
