2008 CelticsBlog draft board.

[Gainesville Celtic]

People who think that Julian is going to be better than Brandan Wright have lost their minds.

(I do like J. Wright's potential.  He's stuck with that "jack of all trades, master of none" type of game, though.)

J. Wrigth reminds me of a young Walt Williams for some reason.  I think he'll get there, i.e. is a safe bet.  B.Wright has potential (maybe more than JWright) but it seems overhyped like Marvin Williams' was.  Williams is a fine pro, but not IMO a superstar.

So i guess i think they'll both end up as good pro's but Brandon just has more potential...

just my 2 cents.

Did the THUNDER miss their pick?

Did the THUNDER miss their pick?

No.  Why?

[BigAlTheFuture]

Uhhh. I think both the Bucks and Thunder missed their picks.

[Roy Hobbs]

I know who Redz wants, but he didn't ask me to pick for him (and he's showing at the top of the screen.)  My guess is that he just got a customer.

Redz relax, don't do it!

The Bucks select C Hilton Armstrong

[BigAlTheFuture]

With their 9th rounder the Spurs select rookie Jason Thompson

[ChampKind]

The Bucks select C Hilton Armstrong

I thought about him over Moore, but he's been so [dang]ed unimpressive that I went with the old guy.

[Big Ticket]

Great pick... I was really high on him at this point in the draft, and if I didn't have a backup PF already, he would have been my pick instead of McGee.  I think Thompson is much more NBA ready.

[Redz]

Just because it seems like a fine "value" pick, the Angry Pickles find it impossible to pass on resident nut job Stephon Marbury with a 9th rounder. 

For his part Marbury has promised to hand out $3 sneakers to the first 100,000 Pickle fans. "It's just the kinda guy I am.  I really feel like the Angry Pickles are a Starbury kind of team."

Maybe he was referring to Dorell Wright?  That was my first reaction.

I was thinking about Marbury, but you just made my pick a lot easier.

The Detroit Pistons select veteran swingman Jerry Stackhouse

I can't believe a player of his caliber is still around, and is my 11th guy lol
