Draft Picks question 

Post#1 » by Go7enKs » Sun Feb 22, 2009 12:15 am

Now that we're probably going to miss the playoffs I'm starting to think about the Draft. De we have our first rounder this year or it's property of The Team That Shall Not Be Named? You know, for the infamous Thomas trade. I seem to recall that we sent two 1st rounders to "sweeten" the deal. Weren't the '09 and '10 1st round picks?

Hope I'm wrong...

Portland would be happy to buy that draft pick off of your economically challenged owner. 3 million bucks and its ours.

And two of them are worthless conditional picks (top 55 protected).

how do you know this? I read that the GSW is not a conditional pick. The orlando one might be, but they are one of the best teams. I agree at least ours and orlandos pick will be junk, but if the GSW pick is not protected, which I think it is not, it might turn out to be a decent pick.

This type of trolling is making me cheer that you picked Sam Bowie #2 instead of Kevin Durant, who's going to be a true superstar.

We will see, too early to tell about Oden. Your right about Durant though. IMO, most that know what their talking about would have chosen Oden over Durant too (big men win championships)

Jordan won a few championships and wasn't very big...

My bad, only one is junk (KT trade). GSW is unconditional just as '10 Bobcats will be.
