2009 Celticsblog Draft: Draft Thread

[The Walker Wiggle]

Houston still considering a move back from 7 (4). Offers welcome.

[ChampKind]

I.Am.Excited.

If you pick my target, i won't be. 

though he's sort of off the wall...not that anyone taking this late is off the wall i suppose. not alot of top tier talent left as the 180th player chosen, though im sure we'll all defend the steals we're about to get 

He's a starting caliber player.

He's undersized.

Guess if you want.

I think I know who you're taking...and it will annoy me considerably.

[indeedproceed]

Eh...close enough.

Let the afternoon session begin!

Maybe I wanna wait until 2:29......

[Roy Hobbs]

We have two guys rated very highly here based upon talent, and one additional player based on his fit with our team.

No, I won't.

The Phoenix Suns select Nate Robinson

Reasoning: Ramon Sessions, my starter, is a very very good distributor. However he's not an explosive scorer. Sometimes, a change of pace from the point position will shake the game up to break it open.

He's the #1 rated player on our board, based upon talent.  I can almost guarantee who this pick is, and it's unlikely he gets past #3 if IP passes him up.

EDIT:  Too slow.  Yep, that was him.

Any time you grab a 20 ppg scorer in the 7th round, it's a good move.

Not my guy.  Phew.  Probably better than my guy though.  Good pick.

Let's just hope those rumors of Olympiakos courting him are nothing more than idle chatter.

Nice grab, I was waiting for him to go. Might have taken a flier, if I didn't have the smallest backcourt in the division already haha

[RebusRankin]

The Buffalo Braves select Zaza Pachulia.

The Knicks and the sparkplug guard Nate Robinson are nearing an agreement on a one-year contract that will pay Robinson $5 million to $6 million, a person close to the negotiations confirmed Sunday. The deal would allow the Knicks to add Robinson, a restricted free agent, without dipping into their payroll for 2010, said the person, who requested anonymity because the negotiations were not complete.
