They gotta give it to the Knicks. Stern knows how important the Knicks being good is to the NBA. And I'm not just saying that b/c I am from NY or I am a Knicks fan. I am actually a Bulls fan.
***edit*** the last one should say get the first pic in the draft not a first round pick
-
I voted "No Isiah has cursed the team for years to come"
-
let em' have the #1 pick.... I'm not a NY fan but this team has been kicked more than a soccer ball.
-
Wow the Knicks can't even catch a break. Not only did they not get the first or 2nd pic but they moved down 1 slot to number 6 lmfao. At least my Bulls are in the top 3
-
;D
-
Jay Z didn't look too thrilled with that #10 spot... at least to me.
-
At least if the Blazers can't get Rose or Beasley they will be going to the East.
-
Trail Blazers are on my radar as teams to watch out for. Those guys play do-or-die at home.... at least when it's the Lakers they are playing... lol

Young teams almost always play much better at home. I think that you are right in keeping them on your radar though. I can say with 100% confidence that we will not be in the lottery for the next 10 years at least. Not only will we be adding the #13 pick (Karl Malone was a #13 pick, Drexler was a #14 pick, etc), but Oden is healthy and we also drafted the MVP of the Euro league in Rudy Fernandez who has committed to coming over to Portland next year. We're gonna be a force in the league very soon.

#6 dayum

I'm so glad Seattle and Minnesota and will not be getting Rose or Beasley
-
Dammit i missed it. Who's where? I see Chicago and Miami are 1 and 2 respectively.

Bulls got #1!!!! Wow didn't they have a 1.7% chance of winning lol, and the NBA rigs the draft again lol. NBA is so crooked and corrupt its absurd.

^I think if it were rigged, NY would be higher...

Yeah I agree that NY would be higher but seriousley how did Chicago win w/ a 1 % chance, I just dont think they got that lucky.

Because 1% is a hell of a lot bigger than 0%. Shit Portland almost won it again. 3 of the first three numbers they drew belonged to Portland. If the last number they drew matched then we woulda been #1 again and we only had a .6 chance. then there would REALLY be some conspiracy theorists comin out the woodwork. Chicago got lucky. Big deal. Theyre still gonna suck no matter who they pick! lol

^I dunno about that.
PG Kirk Hinrich...Chris Duhon/Jameson Curry
SG Ben Gordon...Larry Hughes/Thabo Sefolosha
SF Luol Deng...Andres Nocioni/Demetris Nichols
PF Michael Beasley...Tyrus Thomas/Drew Gooden
C Joakim Noah...Aaron Gray/Cedric Simmons
If this team can stay healthy, they'll be a force in the east.

IF they can stay healthy and IF they can get a decent coach. Chances are, one of those things wont happen. Plus Duhon and Gordon are likely gone if you believe the rumors

^I'm just saying...it's not like they don't have much to work with. they're definitely not a lost cause. far from it, as a matter of fact.
-
^^True, let's also not forget that this core was a playoff team last year..Adding either Beasley or Rose will obviously help, and paired with all the young talent, they should be a playoff team, but they should have been one this year. Then again, if they don't have a decent coach and they continue to play undisciplined and selfish, they will be the same as this season.
-
^They better hope they don't end up with Avery...that's the only way the disciplinary factor can get worse than Skiles. LOL.

So what? Can't I just hate on em cause I wanted the first pick and we were one ping pong ball away from it? LOL ROSE AND BEASLEY ARE BUSTS!!!
