June 28, 200520 yr QUOTE(danman31 @ Jun 28, 2005 -> 03:13 PM) So are they drafting guys on how well they can dunk? How athletic they are has alot to do with it. Green is an athletic freak and is mostly compared to mcgrady, not a bad combination.

June 28, 200520 yr Can anyone inform me why yaroslav korolev has sky rocketed in all the mock drafts?
June 28, 200520 yr Reasons for no Chicago picks: 1) Phoenix receives a future protected Chicago first-round pick (062304 7th pick trade) Protected through No. 3 in the 2005 NBA Draft, through No. 1 in 2006 and is unconditional in 2007. (Luol Deng trade) 2) Utah receives 2 future Chicago second-round picks in 2005 and 2006 (John Amaechi trade 093003). via Houston (Bryce Drew trade 092800)
June 28, 200520 yr He's skyrocketed because of a promise from the Clippers to draft him at 12 I would assume. But there have been some comments from the Clippers also that there are a few players they would take over Koralev. I'm expecting the Clippers to draft Rashad McCants and then trade him to Denver for their two picks, Denver is very interested in Rashad, as is Indiana at 17.

I never understand teams promising that they are gonna pick someone. There is always a chance that a better player falls to them. Koralev very, very unproven, as are most european players. He is gonna be a mistake for the clippers.
June 28, 200520 yr Unfortunately for the players, even a promise doesn't mean a guarantee of anything. Louis Williams is telling people that he has a 1st round promise, we will see how that goes. Basically telling a foreign player like that that you promise to take them, just keeps them in the draft and gives the team another option. If somehow a player they want more falls to the Clippers, which is likely, then Koralev is pretty much screwed and likely will end up in next years draft again. Then again, its the Clippers we are talking about, who knows what they are thinking.
June 28, 200520 yr Any guesses on who wears the ugliest suit? Hakeem Olajuwon. Jalen Rose. Samaki Walker. Maurice Taylor. Drew Gooden. Bonzi Wells. Karl Malone. Edited June 28, 200520 yr by qwerty
June 28, 200520 yr Drew Gooden has a pimp-ass suit right there. Personally, I'd go with a black pin-stripe suit with a grey shirt and a nice tie.
June 28, 200520 yr QUOTE(qwerty @ Jun 28, 2005 -> 06:39 PM) Jiri welsch was traded to the bucks for a future second rounder. Meh, not that big of a deal. Welsch was either a Rocket or a Celtic...which is it? I can't remember.

June 28, 200520 yr On the ugliest suit, I vote for David Stern in 1984 for the ugliest mustache ever.

We can pick up an undrafted guard in free agency for cheaper to fill the same role as he would. We are gonna use our money on bigger guard than we currently have and another back up big man.
June 28, 200520 yr I always get confused as to where he has played. He's playd like 3 years and is already a journeyman. Rockets, Warriors, Celtics, Cavs, and now Bucks.
