C'mon now Hudson was 58th don't slight the guy.

LTF Giddens was non existent out there he was in the game and still not on my TV in a game that Mike Sweetney was the leading scorer he did nothing.

Pete, as far as Daniels and the pg spot, the thing I really like about him is that if you send the double he just moves the ball, he doesn't turtle up like most "big guy trying to play pg" do. He also is just awesome in the lane, so the defense just collapses and he knows were the shooters are. Doc is in love for sure.

It is incredible if Ainge has gotten us a servicable player, Hudson, with the last pick in the second round.


Yeah I like Ainge's approach to second round picks. He takes undersized college studs - instead of your mysterious foreign dudes or the physical talents that can't play..

Hudson was the third to last pick, not the last pick.

Ainge took a mysterious foreign dude in Erden just a couple years ago.

True but we had mutiple 2nds or something like that. I think he did that just because he ran out of ideas. He picks alot less foreigners then most GMs.

We took JR, Walker (who we had to buy the rights for, we didn't have the pick that took him), and Erden. Erden was our only actual second rounder going in.

He probably took him because he didn't see anyone he really liked, so he took the rights to some Euro to see if he'd one day bloom. That's it.
