2008 CelticsBlog draft board.

[Gainesville Celtic]

The ORLANDO MAGICS select......


22-year-old jumping jack Dorrell Wright

Jumping jack is absolutely right.  Super-duper leaper.  Nice pick, GC.

Thanks, but i mean... he's no Vujacic

(just teasin' steve...)

[RebusRankin]

The Clippers select Fabricio Oberto

[Scribbles]

The Clippers select Fabricio Oberto

Good pick.  I couldn't chose between Oberto and Rasho but took Rasho instead. 

[wdleehi]

Knicks select Brent Barry

[RebusRankin]

The Clippers select Fabricio Oberto

Good pick.  I couldn't chose between Oberto and Rasho but took Rasho instead. 

That was actually my debate too. I was going to take Rasho and then you did so problem solved.

You are suppose to use 'GM Talk'

He's going to make it rain on the Magics...but sadly, I don't know if that will be with his three-pointers or the grease from his hair flying all over the place

[JSD]

Nets? (as much as I hope they get skipped...I won't hesitate )

[bdm860]

Nets select Matt Carroll

Filling specific roles now, want a shooter that can spread the floor.  Was hoping to take Kapono, then was hoping to take Barry, but we're happy to take Matt Carroll.  Not the sexiest pick, but he fills a role, and he will fit well with my team.

[JSD]

Rockets select: Zaza Pachulia From the republic of Georgia.

Zaza dressed for this occasion.

[The Walker Wiggle]

The Memphis Grizzlies select Anthony Randolph.

[wdleehi]

Interesting situation now. 


The last two GMs said they would be late.  I don't know what happens to Eventime.



Do they all get back before 7 or does the Magic jump them?  (only one who can)

[zerophase]

wolves said they would only be 20 minutes late i believe.

*gotta sweat an entire rd before I can pick still*

[Gainesville Celtic]

Just a reminder that the ORLANDO MAGICS are listening to offers to move down to the mid-to-late 9th round from the #1 pick.


I'm looking to add a 10th round pick to move down (the air is getting thin in these rounds....) Players also welcome as part of any package deal.


And FWIW -- due to a family issue, i'll likely be away from a computer from 7 pm on..... So if i'm not able to move the pick by then I may wait till tomorrow morning. I have some offers in and out, so in fairness to folks i'd like to give them the chance to complete the deal.
