TIMBERWOLVES 2009 DRAFT THREAD 

Post#1 » by Shox214 » Thu Jun 25, 2009 7:05 am

It is officially Thursday, which means the draft is today. Coverage starts on ESPN at 5:30 local time, the Wolves are hosting a draft party at the Target Center also starting at 5:30. As of 2:00am this morning we have picks: #5, 6, 18, 28, 45, and 47 but a lot can change from now until then.

good luck wolves fans, lets hope for a great draft.

I ready! KFAN all day tomorrow. Even Common talked a little Wolves the last couple days.

My hopes are we get Rubio! I'm a little scared that Thabeet could be a bust. After number one who know what will happen! A post Mchale era draft with 4 1st round picks! Should be a crazy night!

Haven't posted in a while but I have been reading! Now that I'm graduated I get to be unemployed! Thanks economy!

Hello guys, been lurking in this board for about 4 years (right after the WCF run) and decided finally post here. Hope you guys'd be kind to a noob like me :D

I'm pumped for this draft, especially after yesterday's trade. Let's go Kahn!

If you guys are able to land any combo of Rubio / Curry / Harden I'm going to be really upset.
Thank you for all the memories BRoy. You were a class act and brought hope to an entire region for 5 years. You will be missed.

I could..

The board will probably be spammed with who we pick if you have internet access on your phone, but if you don't...then throw your number over my way and i'll text you once we select the players.
