Bobcats War Room - 2008 Draft - Pick # 20 

Post#1 » by August Us Seazr » Wed May 14, 2008 11:02 pm

With this pick, we achieve one milestone and pass another. Pick 19 (Nicolas Batum) was the halfway point between the start of drafting and our currently scheduled second round pick. Pick 20 marks the 2/3 point of the first round.

I know that it is easy to get tired of doing something every day, but let's get used to it. At least this isn't work. This is pleasure. Joy. What I love to do! So stay with us guys. I hope we are all in this for the long haul.

I want to say that I'm sorry about not getting this up last night. My recliner did its stuff again. Sat down for a "few" minutes and woke up at 1:45 AM this morning. And then I had to get up at 4:45! Short night.

Anyway, on to the business of the day. We have selected- Michael Beasley, Derrick Rose, Jerryd Bayless, Brook Lopez, O. J. Mayo, Danillo Gallinari, Eric Gordon, Kevin Love, Anthony Randolph, D. J. Augustin, Russell Westbrook, DeAndre Jordan, Donte Green, Nicolas Batum (last night's titleist), JaVale McGee, Roy Hibbert, Marreese Speights, and Darrell Arthur. These guys are off the board.

Let's see. Pick 20 belongs to Denver. And in looking at the trades and transactions section, it looks like a lot of the Denver folks want US to have Carmello Anthony. Wouldn't this have been lovely 2 years ago when we all got hot and bothered just at the prospect of getting someone of Anthony's caliber? Anyway, I think a lot of us have cooled on getting Anthony and since we don't know what Mgt. will have up their sleeves, who knows if Denver fan interest in making a move will really have some of Denver's guys wearing orange and blue? I mention this only to get you all fired up over this pick. I hope you are.

Now, do your research, and vote your conscience. 9 players, 24 hours, 1 vote.

Until tomorrow, Claw ON!

Rush....

Might regret not getting Ajinca in a few years....so hard to tell at his age

Don't like Buddinger at all.....
Lawson is going to be alot like Felton except maybe worse shooter/finisher

Hate to Rush on, but we have now concluded the # 20 vote. Brandon Rush is our winner.

On to # 21! We'll be back up in a few!
