Ok i'm gonna stop predicting... :lol:

Kyle Lowry is awesome.

EDIT: "9:59 PM: Houston sent the rights to No. 8 Rudy Gay and Stromile Swift to Memphis for Shane Battier."

AND Swift? :shock: Man, Memphis has come away with Rudy Gay, Stromile Swift and Kyle Lowry. It's true, Jerry West IS a genius.

Shannon Brown is jacked musculary, amazing defensive player and great dunker. shot is very good but shoots too much sometimes will have an amazing impact complimenting lebrons driving with his outside shooting.

Hey guys!
Where can I see those recent news that you are posting? I live in Spain, so I am not able to watch it on television. Anyone could tell me any page on the net? Another question: What do you think about Sergio Rodriguez? In what team will he fall?
Thanks!

"10:14 PM: Phoenix is expected to take Spanish point guard Sergio Rodirguez with pick 27, and will trade his rights to Portland for cash, according to ESPN"

I think Suns are using this draft to find ways to stay under luxury cap.

I spose it makes sense, since with Amare back we have a championship calibre team, so our main priority should be to keep it in tact rather than add more and more.

Two point guards for Phoenix... Kind strange, isn´t it?

EDIT: Sergio to Portland... poor guy! :twisted:

They're now saying the Cavs' '07 1st rounder, which the Celtics had (I believe) was included in the Rondo deal.

So...

Celtics get:

Rajon Rondo
Brian Grant's salary

Suns get:

Cavs' 1st round pick in 2007, through the Celtics
Brian Grant's body

Damnit I didn't get to do my scouting reports because my mom just had a wicked gay chat with me. I'm only going to continue my reports till the end of the first round.

The Knicks get Mardy Collins from Temple, pretty good guard. 2-time all atlantic 10. Can drive well, hes not athletic at all just finds way to score. Good character and is compared to Aaro McKie. Not bad at all.

My Final report. Portland gets Joel Freeland, 19 years old great basketball IQ athletic and great fluid jumpshot. Overall great first round with many surprises Portland sucks, New Orleans had a great draft and will win 82 games next year.

10:31 PM: TRADE: Phoenix traded the rights to Sergio Rodirguez (#27) to Portland for Cash. This trade is now official.

That must be hard, 'cuz Steve Nash is his favourite player and he could learn lots of things from him... Anyway I think he'll have a chance in Portland.
