What do you think Kahn's draft board* looks like?

*of "attainable" players
I've got:

1. Rubio
2. Thabeet
3. Evans
4. Harden
5. Curry
6. Flynn

That sounds about right. It scares me that he might rank Thabeet above Rubio but I hope that's just speculation and not reality.

1. Fire McHale, check.
2. Get Rubio (trade love)
3. Get Thabeet (trade miller + expirings)
4. Get Evans (#6)
5. Get Austin Daye (#18)
6. Hold Parade in your honor.

I'd think that Harden and Curry are flipped, but otherwise yeah.

I would hope it goes
Rubio
Harden
Evans
Thabeet
Flynn
Curry

still seems weird to have Curry that high, but with Aminu and Turner making the mistake of dropping out of guaranteed top 7 pick status, I guess thats acceptable. Thabeet would be an odd play ahead of Harden or Evans imo.

I would hope that we'd take Harden or Evans before Thabeet, because I don't want Thabeet at all, but Kahn seems to like Thabeet for some reason.

For the record, my draft board looks much different than Kahn's.

AQuintus · Post #10 » by **AQuintus** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 7:11 pm

1. Rubio
2. Thabeet
3. Harden
4. Evans
5. Flynn
6. Jennings

No Curry or DeRozan because I'm assuming that he was being honest when he said that they won't draft a guy that they didn't work out.

Did we work out Rubio or Thabeet?

john2jer · Post #12 » by **john2jer** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 7:19 pm

I don't think Rubio worked out for ANYONE, and Thabeet might not have either.

GopherIt! · Post #13 » by **GopherIt!** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 7:25 pm

the top five looks something like this:

1. Jessica Biel
2. Charlize Theron
3. Tricia Helfer
4. Minka Kelly
5. Evangeline Lilly

Esohny · Post #14 » by **Esohny** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 7:29 pm

Biel #1??? Really? I mean, I'm not saying she doesn't rate high, but #1?

No idea who 3-5 are, but no Jennifer Love Hewitt or Jessica Alba?

I think I remember him saying something about those players (and Griffin) being exceptions because they aren't projected to be available when the Wolves pick.

PeeDee · Post #17 » by **PeeDee** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 7:45 pm

He also said they don't have to work out Curry because they interviewed him in Chicago and saw him play basketball for 3 years.

haha, real kahntroversy.

Beil is a knock out. Not into Jennifer. Unlike Rev (and J2J???), I'm not into bench pressing tiny wenches. I like to date tall women.

You know, that many rookies would be horrible for the w/l column, but there are few drafts out there for MN that could be better.

Evans may actually be over kill in that scenario, but I guess I would be ok with him :wink:

I've dated a couple smaller girls. I'm not tall, like 5'10" in the morning on a good day, so it limits my prospects a little bit. Although I'm not picky. The last girl I was serious with was 5'7" and had a little size to her, but gorgeous. My goal was to create basketball kids with her. According to google I'd have had a 5'11" point guard for a son, which works for me.

Other than that I get a lot of girls between 5'2" and 5'4". Couple that were really skinny, but nothing serious. Couple with an extra pound or two, but for the most part I date a lot of intramural athletic types. Girls that are decent athletes and can hold their own, but none that played in college. And funny enough, and I don't target this type, but almost every girl I've dated has been a cheerleader at some point.

Maybe that's my problem, I need to search for girls that obviously were never cheerleaders. Where's Bertha when you... Nevermind, not finishing that sentence.

EDIT: Oh and there's no bragging in there. It's actually more a sad state of my love life. I'm the nicest guy in the world and an amazing date the first few months, and then subconciously something switches on me and I get bored. Then I guess I'm either overly non-chalant or kind of a jerk. Then we break up and a couple months later I realized I screwed up and should have fixed things with the old girl. Some day I'll be a 70 year old cranky guy living alone that kids walk to the other side of the street to avoid passing in front of my house. I'll keep their footballs and baseballs that land in my yard, and I'll walk to the mailbox in just a robe and underwear. I can't wait.
