Nice job here magnumt. Well done.

The Warriors could end up with 1 of around 5-6 players in this draft.

I'd like to nab Holiday at 7, but I really want the Warriors to put together a package for Rubio.

Hopefully Nellie and Riley have something up their sleeves to pull it off, however unlikely it may be......

The Washington Wizards have acquired Minnesota Timberwolves guards Randy Foye(notes) and Mike Miller(notes) for Etan Thomas(notes), Oleksiy Pecherov(notes) and Darius Songaila and the fifth pick in Thursday’s NBA draft, a league executive with knowledge of the deal told Yahoo! Sports.

Cavs considering multiple offers to move up in draft. Less options available now than earlier after recent trades.

Damn I didn't know Twolves have 4 1st round picks, too bad its not a deep draft, but who knows maybe since its the 1st draft post= mchale maybe they hit 2 or 3 home runs.

Dont know if they keep all the picks
they have 12-14 players under contract next year (depending on team options)
no-one likes waiving guaranteed contracts, so im sure Kahn will try to move some of them

SPEARS: Latest draft rumors, including new Rondo whispers

In the wee hours of Wednesday morning, here is what I've accumulated thus far with the NBA Draft arriving Thursday:

* While Memphis is expected to draft UConn center Hasheem Thabeet at No. 2, there are rumors that Minnesota could be interested in trading its newly acquired fifth and sixth picks for the No. 2 pick to get Spanish guard Ricky Rubio.

* While there has been talk around the NBA from several scouts that the Celtics have been shopping guard Rajon Rondo, he isn't expected to be dealt. While unlikely, one Eastern Conference executive said the latest trade rumor included Rondo and forward Brian Scalabrine going to Memphis for guard Mike Conley and swingman Rudy Gay. On the flip side, one NBA GM said that he asked Celtics president Danny Ainge about Rondo and Ainge said he didn't want to trade him.

* Portland and Phoenix are interested in trading for one of Minnesota's two picks in the top 10 (No. 5 or No. 6).

* If Davidson guard Stephen Curry is gone before New York selects at No. 8, the Knicks would likely lean toward drafting Duke guard Gerald Henderson, with USC forward DeMar DeRozan also getting strong consideration. While the Knicks have some interest in Italian Roma Lottomatica guard Brandon Jennings, there is talk he could drop to the mid-teens.

* One NBA scout said he wouldn't be surprised if Kentucky guard Jodie Meeks doesn't get drafted until the mid-to-late second round since he is a one-dimensional scorer.

* North Carolina forward Tyler Hansbrough's stock is rising. While Atlanta, Utah, and New Orleans have interest, he will likely get picked before they got a chance to snatch him.

* Detroit is interested in Gonzaga forward Austin Daye and Ohio State center B.J. Mullens with the 15th pick. Chicago also has interest in Mullens and Israel forward Omri Casspi.

* Sacramento, which has the fourth pick, has had three visits with Holiday.

* While Memphis combo-guard Tyreke Evans may have point guard skills and is extremely gifted offensively, several scouts said he thinks shoot first, second, and third.

* Don't be surprised if new Milwaukee forward Bruce Bowen gets bought out of his $4 million contract next season and becomes an unrestricted free agent.

* Here's a shot in the dark at who the Celtics will pick at 58th: Southern Illinois defensive-minded guard Bryan Mullins.

* Key guys to keep an eye on as possible trade bait Thursday include Cleveland forward-center Ben Wallace, New Jersey swingman Vince Carter, Orlando guard Rafer Alston, a Los Angeles Clipper big man named either Marcus Camby (most likely him), Chris Kaman or Zach Randolph and New York forward-center David Lee.

Thanks bro. I think you guys will go with the BPA that falls, or take Hill...I don't think you take Holiday since Ellis says he wants to do a lot of the PG duties this Year. But with Nelson who know. :lol:

Thanks. Spread the word on your Magic Board (I know they don't have a pick but you never know, they may get one), and link them to the Thread. The more the merrier.

BTW, I've added some Knicks minor news.

Post #56 » by **magnumt** » Wed Jun 24, 2009 3:31 pm

I've added the news that the Knicks reportedly bought the 28th Pick, and that Portland's Outlaw may be on the move maybe to a Top 10 Team

Just got this on my facebook from a Salt Lake City Radio Station:

Here are some of the latest things I am hearing
* The Jazz have big interest in James Johnson but he will not be on the board at 20 so they would have to move up. Could they move CJ to get up in the draft. Would you do that?

* The two guys slipping right now are DeMar DeRozen and Jrue Holliday.

* For those of you that are Tyler Hansborough fans I just got off the phone with a Director of Personal and we did a mock that had Hansborough available at 20.

* DuJuan Blair was also on the board, the guy I talked to said his knees are a real issue.

* If Brandon Jennings doesn't get taken by 13 he might just get all the way to 20. He also might not be that good

* Talked to a coach in the NBA who had just been watching film of Eric Maynor and said he doesn't like him at all. He doesn't see anything that makes him believe he is an NBA Player.

David Locke is the announcer, Locked on Sports in the show, and 1320 KFAN is the station.
