NBA Draft tonight..

Yeah... we don't have a first pick...

We have 3 2nd rounders... the most important one of these is the 37th pick.

Who do we pick? I hope a bigman, but if you can get a rotation player even if he is a swing player you go for it.

Draftexpress has Chase Budinger and Wayne Ellington as 2nd rounders. We have to get them if there are no bigmen worthy of drafting.

Can we buy a pick or trade for a pick in the 1st round?

I've heard every indication that we're trying to move into the 1st round...guess we'll have to wait and see.

No more Euros please.

I wouldn't mind SA drafting a Euro as long it's not pick #37

I'm we could get Ellington, Green or Brown.

I love the Blair pick.. I was hoping he either drop to us or the Wiz. Maybe we can get lucky and trade up and get Derrick Brown.

I can't believe Blair falls to 37th. That's a great pick for the Spurs and they didn't even take long to make that pick. As if they knew who they wanted all along.

I cannot believe we freaking got Blair!!!! I am so pumped!!! That is sick, I thought for sure he was going before Hansborough. The spurs have gotten a guy I thought for sure we wouldn't get even in the 20's. He plays like Charles Barkley, an undersized PF, Rodman was undersized as well, we need rebounding and some scoring and he gives both, incredible incredible pick!

The thing is that he is ready to be a rotation player and we need one because we are so thin up front.

I think Blair is a great pick for a top class organization. Whenever I read this board though I wonder if Spurs fans deserve it. I mean your city has over a million people and is in the top 10 biggest U.S. cities and yet this board is always tumbleweeds. Nothing against the posters who are on this board supporting their team but does San Antonio have a lack of internet access or a lack of Spurs fans? Maybe the Spurs fans just have their own message board?

Are they all at the Riverwalk? I liked it so much when I visited I might be there all the time as well...

There are four dedicated forums that Spurs fans post on which is why Spurs posting is low on all General NBA forums like RealGM, ISH, etc.

Spurstalk.com is the biggest forum where a majority of Spurs fans post at. Others are Spursreport.com, SpursCorral.com and Spurscentral.com

For example, on spurstalk.com right this moment, there are 620 people viewing the draft thread.

Make it 645 now.
