so no more motiejunas?

kind of difficult to understand that logic.

Monroe at 5 seems like a major reach for the Kings...I think he's destined to go to the Pistons.

Good catch

I could see the Wolves going Anderson or maaaybe Sanders at 23. I think Sanders is going to go higher than #26 just considering his position and physical attributes.

I think you're right about Sanders. He is one of my favorites. The tough part is finding someone else to drop down. I see Anderson as a faller on draft day so I'll keep him back there.

Again, as with every year, I am just saying no to all those who insist the notSonics must draft a guy because he's tall. Alabi is a stiff. He doesn't ever make the rotation. Presti is way better served pursuing Tiago Splitter. If there's a way he could trade up for Dan Orton...

FWIW, Chad Ford says the Pistons aren't really considering Cole, and that we like Monroe, Davis and Udoh.

That being said, I might believe that we don't want Aldrich. Dumars hadn't had a white American on the Pistons since Jon Barry.

Super great draft for the notSonics! I hope it comes true. But I think Orton goes earlier.

So, do the Bulls get him on weekdays and the Thunder on weekends, or how does this work out?

[BucksRUS]

Bucks would most likely take George over James. As of yet they have shown little interest in James.

[Krapinsky]

Ay, one of those is supposed to be Motiejunas

[Wise1]

Whiteside slipping out of the first round?

[AQuintus]

Whiteside slipping out of the first round?

It happened to DeAndre Jordan.

[shangrila]

Whiteside slipping out of the first round?

It happened to DeAndre Jordan.

But Jordan refused to work out with any team outside of the lottery. I don't think Whiteside is that crazy.

[Krapinsky]

Whiteside slipping out of the first round?

Yep, by design. Could change, but for right now that's my hunch.

[gswhoops]

I can't see Whiteside slipping out of the first round. The difference between him and DeAndre Jordan is that Whiteside was productive as a freshman.

Jordan: 8ppg, 6rpg, 1.3bpg
Whiteside: 13ppg, 9rpg, 5.4bpg

That and he doesn't come off as a total
