Basically people can do commentary throughout the day, maybe we can have a mock draft comp etc and it will be more of a live chat rather than this draft thread (which is close to hitting 100 pages anyway!)



Im down. Ive already made a suggestion to Kerrsed Via PM about the live draft thread. I would really be happy if people didnt post tweets about who's we're going to pick before Silver reads the name out. Kinda ruins the moment.........


I agree, but I'd still love to hear all the tweets/rumors of what is going on via twitter about what we might be thinking leading up to the pick, at least until like the 13th pick is made (or the pick ahead of ours).

But when the actual pick is made, yes, I'd much rather hear it from Silver, so hopefully people can ignore those tweets that come like a minute before the pick is actually announced.

Or if people don't even want to hear any of the twitter rumors while the first 12 or so picks are going on, maybe people can post those tweets with spoilers around them?

I don't get it. What are spoilers? When we see an expert tweet who's being drafted a few minutes before the selection is made? (OK maybe I do get it)

You should ban the people that use spoilers on this thread, Kerrsed. Show your power.

That's a good idea. I would like to hear about trades, and who we might be thinking of picking, but like you, I would like to hear the pick directly from SIlver's mouth than Twitter.

Last year when Noel and McLemore was availible when we picked, there was intense discussion about who we should pick out of the two... then someone posted "Suns going with Len," and it kinda drained the excitement and anticipation out of me

Yeah. I PM'ed Kerrsed about this issue a couple of days ago. I'm probably different to other people, but I feel that it kinda ruins the moment

Like the good guy he is, Kerrsed delivered.

Lets get this Party ROLLING!!

Im going to lock this one up for the time being and will unlock it shortly before the draft so we can at least keep the conversation going in one thread until we have to split.

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

Remember, if you see tweets about a team on the clock about who their pick is, and Adam Silver hasn't announced it, don't post it here, and if you think it's a guess, use

Getting to the point where I want to see us make a move for Vonleh, his stock is falling but he fits our team in every aspect.

You don't like him? Oh yeah, you wanted Young? I liked Warren though. I was just hoping they didn't end up with LaVine or Payton.

They are going to get a shooter at 18. Two picks before they pick, and Harris, Young, Hood all still on board. OR we could go with Anderson.
