The Draft starts at 7pm on ESPN. My eyes will be towards the end of the 1st and into the 2nd round to see if Jodie Meeks gets drafted.

We should probably throw in or have updates with trades that change the draft at least stuff from today.

Lakers now have more money to pay odom and ariza. Sold 29th pick to the Knicks for 3 million.

Carter goes to the Magic for Rafer Alston, Lee and Battie.

I forgot the are a few Carters in the league.

Its Vince Carter

I hope Rubio goes to OKC. If that happens, they will be a tonne of fun to watch!

T-Mac is willing to except a buyout on his contract and call it quits right?


Draft is very boring - I think Tyler Hansborough will ned up being as good a player as Blake Griffin.

Damn shit, that puts them back up there for contention.

Lebron must be thinking wtf, I get Shaq, Howard gets Carter.

Danny Ferry better pull something out of his ass.

Meanwhile, my Lakers need to do something with this Ariza/Odom situation. Fuck shit fuck.

I have to think Hedo will not be back with the Magic now that they have Carter. If I were a Magic fan, not sure I would be happy with having Carter over Hedo considering the other things he does for them.

This is why hockey is overlooked... cause basketball is the same season, and even the draft is right at the same time. Damnit all...

Or you guys just can't see the puck.

Why wouldn't he come back? Carter is a playmaker while Hedo is a pure shooter. They are totally different and complement each other. This also takes pressure off of Howard to score since we all know he isn't a scorer.

He won't come back because someone is going to pay him more than what the Magic will be willing to pay, especially after taking on VC.

Good point about the compliment to Howard, I just hate Carter with a passion and think he's a cancer.

Well, let's picture the starting 5:

Howard
Lewis
Turkoglu
Carter
Nelson


Enough shots to go around? Howard complained often this season that he didn't get the ball enough. Adding Carter AND keeping Turkoglu certainly won't help that.
