RGM Pre-Draft Summits 

Post#1 » by APerna » Thu May 8, 2008 4:09 pm

Hey posters,

First of all, I'm sorry that your team wasn't able to make it to the second round of the playoffs. I definitely identify with you, since my Pacers weren't even able to make it that far. I am looking to put together NBA Summits for each team as the Draft draws closer.

I put together a ton of these on the NFL forums heading into the draft and they were wildly successful. I hope for the same here, and I know the population of these boards will lend itself to many responses.

Editor Chris Reina and I have put together these seven questions for you all to answer, with the best answers making it into posted pieces on our main page. The only thing that I ask is that you please limit your responses to two sentences per question. Please try your best to heed that request, it makes the Summits easier to read and quicker to put together.

Thanks gang, and best of luck in the Draft.

If we could have pushed the pace in Boston instead of relying on jumpers, we might have had a better chance.

I don't think anything. There was no way that team was winning in Boston. If Bibby had been on the games may have been closer though.

Calderon is a best case scenario, obviously with the "untouchable" rumors coming out of Toronto yesterday it makes it seem less likely.

Hibbert or a Lopez would help fill out our bench nicely but they aren't going to replace anyone in the starting 5 any time soon.

If Toronto will only trade Calderon for someone like Smoove they are going to screw themselves. The fact that they are even considering keeping two PG's instead of using one of them to fill other holes would be stupid.

Finished regular season with a better record to gain a more favorable 1st round match up.
