2009 NBA Draft Thread

i am saying the spurs went out and realluy improved their team with jefferson and blair..boston is going to draft a guy that will prolly never put on a C's uniform....

kind of the price u pay for going from 18 wins to world champs....gotta mortage a part of your future,,,and as a result we dont have much to trade right now....

[celticinorlando]

the celts arent gonna take anyone at 58 that will be on this team

i am afraid you are right. i think a guy like danny green or jeff adrian can help add some bench depth right away..but the way they handled giddens and walker last season makes me think their pick means nada

[wdleehi]

And I want an overseas stash.  That's what SA does all the time.


No room for a late 2nd round project.

Boston was never going to be a player in a draft they did not like.  Just happy this years draft pick went to Minn.

Boston is a FA player this year.

i sure hope you are right...they need to be VERY aggressive come july 1st

Ainge proved two seasons ago that he doesn't need to be aggressive, just smart.

I think we could get both. Get a Euro like Jerebko or Calathes, and hope that a guy like Adrien might be there at #58.

Well, forget Jerebko.

DC likes to trade picks for cash.

[silvershamrocker]

Worst GM ever.

I think de Culo would be a good addition for the future

I know theres alot of frustration, but:

A). The C's still may have traded for one of the early 2nd rounders and it hasn't been announced.

B). No one in this draft was going to help us next year anyway. Danny offseason starts July 1st.

C). I agree with Wdleehi we neeed to start our overseas stash.

We're still 18 away from our pick, plus i think that the mid 2nd are just as good as alot of the late 1st's. Theres no Stars in this draft. But i do think its full of good rebounders/ defenders, AKA role players.

tru...tp


im getting sad as it becomes obvious Ty Rice isnt gonna get drafted...even though i didnt think it was likely he would

[vjcsmoke]

what a relief.  the spurs drafted blair.  

Why?  They took the player the Celtics wanted last year. 

1. Blair will be on a good team.  he deserves that.
2. I don't have to listen to all the posts about how everyone wants blair to drop to 58.
3. How do you know that the Celtics wanted Blair over BBD?  How is he an upgrade?

So the 32nd pick was available for cash. Danny should of bit.

He must not like anyone enough to waste a roster spot.
