As a laker fan, I'm liking Farmar. I think he's got a good chance of breaking into the lineup quick, and a real drive-and-dish PG with a shot and some defensive ability would be a major upgrade over Smush as a starter, as Smush isn't a playmaker and is a defensive liability against quick point guards, but is crazy athletic and can score in bunches and thereby would make a quality #3 guard.

 

My roommate is a Knicks fan. He hasn't talked much about basketball lately. After the Collins pick, he says to me over AIM:

 

NihonGoat: WHY IS NEW YORK STILL DRAFTING GUARDS!!!!!!!????

Warpticon: Hahahahaha, I didn't even see.

NihonGoat: >:o

Warpticon: Lord knows they need more guards.

NihonGoat: I guess they are going to start selling on ebay

NihonGoat: No reserve!! RARE

Also, I love Portland's pick of Wright. He's one of those freakish athletes who is just coming into his own as an pure basketball player. I would have liked him at #26 to the lakers, and I think he's a fine pick there with tremendous upside.

 

I also really like Novak to Houston. Novak is another Dirk Lite type player, and while he doesn't have Dirk's post game or athleticism, he's got a heck of a shot. Not a ton of upside, but I think he has a very good likelihood of hitting his ceiling and being a long-time contributor.

dee + deron = love

 

but not playoffs

 

i dont think any two players could take on a whole team and win

 

that's a very high standard you're asking them to meet.

Utah just wants me to hate them as much as possible.

 

Had Stockton + Malone, finally got rid of them, so I was becoming passive about them again...and then they get Brown and Williams.

 

if it makes you feel any better Dee will probably make less than several players under Snyder did

Agreed. I liked Smush for most of the year but he flat out stunk in the playoffs this year. He was really exposed by Steve Nash in that series. He'll be good as an off the bench type of guy, but Farmar will hopefully be better as a starter.

The Bulls are a tease, I flipped through quickly after work, saw Aldridge and was ecstatic. And then they wind up with Thomas and the Swiss guy.

 

I hope you know what you're doing Pax.

Stephen A Smith makes Hawk Harrelson seem tolerable...

 

I actually don't mind Stephen A. that much. There are a ton of other sports personalities that I hate more than Stephen A.

Only 26 more picks until Dallas gets Pittsnogle...

 

:-\

 

I can only dream.

 

Take Ryan Hollins instead! Then you can have a player who dunked on me twice in HS.

 

aren't you like 4 feet tall? i'm pretty sure it doesnt count as getting dunked on if he can't even see you down there.

 

Was 5'6 at the time, he was 6'7. Our stupid center insisted on coming out to the perimeter and I kept getting switched onto the star center.

 

And yay, Ryan Hollins goes #50 to Charlotte! :D
