NBA Draft

[bhaggard89 869]

I assume most of you are at least somewhat intrigued by the NBA. I wanted to start this thread so we could talk about our favorite team and what we would like to see them do in the draft. Personally, I'm a Pacers fan and I'd like to see them go PG or an athletic big. I'm thinking Dejounte Murray from Washington, or Brice Johnson from UNC.

The Heat don't even have a pick. For the Pacers... Henry Ellenson, Thon Maker (if they're willing to wait), Malik Beasley...

As a Sixers fan, I hope we don't screw this up. So I'd be happy with Ingram or Simmons.

Simmons... I was hoping they'd lure the Lakers into trading the 2nd pick for Okafor lol.

I hope Ellenson drops to number 20, but not holding my breath.

Fran's take... although everything the scout said about Troy has been posted on this board numerous times over the last several years.

I've seen Yogi projected 30-60 and Troy was 60 in most recent one I've seen.

Yogi has received some high praise recently because of his workouts. They are projecting Yogi in early to mid 2nd

I didn't know this forum qualified as being an "NBA Scout".

I'd love to see it, but the only site I've seen so far (free views) that has Yogi drafted is SI as the #55 pick to Brooklyn.

Cameo for DJ White; part of the Boston/Brooklyn trade that gave Boston every other pick of this draft.

[LIHoosier 25,061]

If they're gonna show Murray embarrass Troy off the dribble, then they should show this too.

I think there's been as many draft picks coming from the stands rather than the green room.

The Sacramento Kings are the worst franchise in the NBA.

I say we take a shot for when the word wingspan comes up.

Coach Crean told Woj that Malachi Richardson told him that he was coming to IU... Then didn't.

Yogi and Troy not drafted. No surprise. Neither was Gary Payton II.

Not a great result for Indiana tonight. Both players draft able compared to the crap i watched get drafted. Crean was talking early 2nd round. Kind of a bummer really.

Yogi is being picked up by the Brooklyn Nets. He will play in the NBA. Troy will never sniff a roster spot IMO.
