NBA 2006 Draft Thread (incl. unsubstantiated trade rumors :D)
now that the playoffs are done, lets talk about the draft! just post about your favorite team or in general i guess.
for the sacramento kings at # 19, here are my top 3 picks:
1) Mardy Collins-
Seems to have a good attitude, explosive, long arms, and can defend. 6'5 too so possibly can be a good combo guard off the bench since Bibby plays wayyyy too many minutes. We need a backup PG other than Hart (though im curious what he;d do under a new coach) and price needs a few more years, possibly NBDL?
2) Saer Sene-
Very risky, definitely needs a few years to develop but has insane hops (he can touch the top of the backboard) along w/ a 7'8 wingspan. #19 is a tough place to draft so this seems a low risk high reward kind of pick.
3) Kyle Lowry-
Another backup PG, reminds me a lot of bobby jackson, has a nice attitude.

really looking forward to this .
i have a feeling there are going to be some real surprises this year in the draft, and toronto is not going to pick the guy that everyone suggests to pick .
but i believe the journalists, and say this draft is a jump shooting draft, and not really much for strong inside players .

the eddie curry deal will hopefully work out for the bulls. how can it not since we took the second overall pick? unless we select sam bowie or some shit.

i heard somewhere that they were firing for "cause" so they technically dont need to give up the 40 mil or whatever it was.
and honestly i dont see the knicks winning anything within the next decade, at least with the same management.

you're the optimistic one...
they won't win anything at all with the same ownership
