Has there been a pick the ESPN guys haven't liked yet? Seriously, these guys are just sucking up to everyone and aren't questioning any of the picks or philosophies.
Is it me or is a computer error message playing any time they play the intro music before announcing the pick? Alexander I'm iffy on. Apparently he's been awesome in workouts and Hollinger loves him...but I've never been blown away by him whenever I watched WVU. Given the available talent is decidedly mediocre right now, he's a good risk to take...but eh.
The Knicks have an awesome history of drafting international players. This guy has no lateral quickness. It'll be fun watching him in the D'Antoni offense.
I like him more than Jarryd Bayless if you're looking for a PG. Like I said though I think if they could have found a way to get Mayo... It wasn't a pick I particularly expected the Sonics to make and keep. I think it'll work for them, but I don't think he'll be more than a good roleplayer for the time being.
Riley is talking so much about due diligence you'd figure he was being investigated for anti-trust violations. Any time you hear those words dropped a lot, the person uttering them is not a happy camper.
Rumor is he'll be takaing a paycut when he enters the NBA. Wait, what? There've been a number of rumors that he's been getting paid under the table in Southern Cal. Also, Minnesota is going to regret this pick.
Fun-loving guy off the court? Is that "fun-loving" in the sense that he likes playing practical jokes, enjoys playing PS3 with teammates, and an all-around good guy or "fun-loving" in the Tank Johnson/Pac-Man Jones sense? I'm betting the latter.
Rumor is he'll be takaing a paycut when he enters the NBA. He's my current odds-on favorite to be the next athlete in professional sports to have a federal investigation launched against him.
