2009 Celticsblog Draft: Draft Thread

TPs to Dons and IP for putting that all together in about 1 minute. Thanks guys (at least some of you) for the patience

Yo you made it clear you were waiting untill the last minute to make your pick, you're time expired.  

It should have been Riahs pick.  

If riah wanted to pick he could have. As it turns out its past his turn and he hasn't picked so maybe he was here to do it.

Either way I protected the pick by selecting for the suns. After that....let the commish sort things out.

If Riah had picked then like I said let Dons work it out

The Memphis Grizzles are happy to draft one of their own: Rudy Gay

I definitely like the guy.  He didn't make "the jump" like I expected him to last season, but he still has time.

His value is def lower this season. He was a late 1st last year in my book.

[Roy Hobbs]

the Raptors select, Gilbert Arenas

He's definitely a star.  However, the back-to-back serious injuries have to concern you, right?

the Raptors select, Gilbert Arenas

There is a big if.  If he is healthy (will be the 1st time in what, 3 seasons) and he is the same player, big steal.  


If not, then he is just a big distraction in the locker room.  (I get my fill of Gilbert talk on DC sports radio, one of the worst I have listen to)

I took him out of my second round board because of those injuries. He's saying recently he needs more surgery. Reminds me of grant hill (not character wise obviously, but injury wise)

yeah...we are hoping he makes the jump this year...he has first round talent and we feel good getting him mid second round

Pacers still offering 3,5th and a sweetener for a 2nd.

Suns select Al Horford

Suns select Al Horford

Man...  my team from last year is coming off of the board quickly.

Suns select Al Horford

some serious muscle down low for the suns

It has been said last week that he is 100% and is working out with Tim Grover, who worked with Michael Jordon as well as recently got Dwayne Wade healthy again.  We fully expect a recovered and healthy Gilbert

Looking to trade into the mid to late 2nd round pm me if you're interested and we'll talk trade. (Chat doesn't work on my computer)

[wdleehi]

Suns select Al Horford

There goes one option to put shoulder to shoulder with Oden.

[jgod213]

possibly looking to move in to mid/late second round.  PM if you're looking to slide down a bit.

[nickagneta]

The Boxers will once again be fielding offers to move down in the 2nd round


We are looking for a lower 2nd rounder and a low 4th or high 5th in exchange for our 2(16) and 5(19) picks
