Official 2008 Draft Night Thread...the future is now.

[KingInExile]

The main reason why I didn't want us to pick a "potential" PF at 12 is because we are stuck with Moore, SAR, KT, Williams right now. Wasn't one of the main points of getting rid of Bibby to pick up a young PF with "potential" in Williams? Don't know how much playing time either one of them will get now, especially if SAR comes back healthy...

And there went Chalmers.

The summer is just getting started. There's no guarantee all of them will still be on the roster this fall. You just need to think outside the box.

There went Jordan.

[KF10]

There goes Jordan. Taken by the Clippers.

[SactownHrtBrks8]

This could also be the player going to Houstin if that trade is still on

[KingInExile]

These guys are still on my radar:

Jordan
Weaver
Jawai
Hardin
Gist
Walker

I would really like Waver to fall to us.

Won't be Jordan, though.

Hey if someone is picked in the 2nd round and does not make the team can they go back to college and then re-enter the nba draft a year or so later?

[Ballings7]

I don't think Hendrix lasts to our next pick

So if something happens and we get a miracle and KT/SAR/Moore is gone off this team, then I will re-evaluate my thinking...but for now, just don't get it. If Beno signs with someone else (like LAC), who else is available on the market to sign? Which PG is on the market that we could trade for?

I just think that we might be giving up on Williams too soon, IMO.

Cross your fingers he does

[pillwenney]

Prediction: CDR goes to Chicago at 39, reuniting with Rose.

[Ballings7]

My ideal scenario is this... Hendrix or Hardin and then Weaver with the next two picks (no order)

c'mon baby

I don't think they can reenter the draft...I'm not even sure if the NCAA will let them play collegiately again. They can go to the D-League, though, and would be a free agent.

[Ballings7]

I think that'll be a solid pick the Bucks

I can really see A Moute turning into a good athletic defensive hustler

[RIPskaterdude]

There went Weaver......

There's plenty of room for Hawes, Thompson and Williams on the roster in the future.

[Ballings7]

Sweet pick by Charlotte!

[KF10]

There goes Weaver. Taken by Cha.

[SacTown Kings]

Damn now Weaver's gone.

[KingInExile]

Damn it...there goes Weaver.

Larry Brown learned from his mistakes and drafted a prototypical pass first PG he needs, Raymond Felton isn’t a pure point, and he’s not a very good shooter, give him up and move on, why force him to do something he's not good at....

Ballings do like the bobcats pick?
