Portland makes another trade.
Sergio and a late pick for 1st in the 2nd round. Good move. Assets!

Man, dude, I thought my GM liked me, but he sent me to the Kings.

I really hate this waiting. The stupid countdown clock just makes it worse.
Anyway, good luck to everyone, and may most of us be happy at the end of the night!
Man-slave, bring me my PB&J!
every rumor we keep hearing has nothing to do with the bulls...
im really starting to get the feeling its gonna be a disappointing night…..
No matter who the Bulls end up with, there best chance to improve significantly would be to fire VDN.

It really sucks that reality is setting in
The Bulls will be just as mediocre next season on paper.
Come onnnnnnnnn Derrick, no pressure to become a top 20 player or anything.
That Steve Nash is exactly the same as Kirk Hinrich, but worse.

Ah, Dicky V
It’s painful, yet oddly I think I’d be sad without him. It’s just goes with the night.
Man-slave, bring me my PB&J!
Me, too - that's why it would be odd that I'd miss it.
They’re all annoying, but picking on ’em is part of the fun, I guess.
Man-slave, bring me my PB&J!

Yahoo is saying
The Boston Celtics had aggressively pursued the No. 2 pick in the draft, league sources said, but backed away and apparently will no longer try to get the Memphis Grizzlies’ pick. They had intended to select Memphis guard Tyreke Evans.

They offered Kendrick Perkins, Brian Scalabrine and Tony Allen for Milicic and the nukber 2 pick
That's "aggresively pursuing" the #2 pick?
That would have been the worst trade in NBA history for Memphis.

Am I the only one that's not really wowed by Griffin?
The Big12 sucked last year…can he shoot? Athletic or not he’s going to get blocked a lot trying to do that shit in the pros
"The Zen philosopher Basho once wrote: 'A flute with no holes is not a flute, And a doughnut with no hole is a Danish.' He was a funny guy."
He's basically going to be Amare-lite when he comes into the league, in that he will want to dunk everything.

What was the look on Griffin's face when his name was called?
Did he cringe when he put on a Clippers cap?

Is he going to be expected to do a lot?
besides rebound and block shots? Rudy does all the scoring on that team anyway…

Watch OKC blow it all up and pick Rubio...
"The Zen philosopher Basho once wrote: 'A flute with no holes is not a flute, And a doughnut with no hole is a Danish.' He was a funny guy."
i'm betting it's rubio here too

I was Thabeet would go to OKC.
Now they’ll take Harden and will be one less suitor for Gordon. (I’m assuming he’s already gone, so this is just so he can get the most money.)
So, is that why they want Williams so bad? Because he’s the EXACT OPPOSITE of Gordon?

Tyreke Evans is better than Rubio
as far as a high-floor guy, ceiling-wise Rubio probably has him there but Evans is better now

Sacramento, if you take Tyreke Evans over Rubio
Fold the franchise immediately.

I think they will take Tyreke Evans
they got Sergio Rodriguez from Portland for the 31th pick

I don't understand Rubio dropping
The guy held his own against Chris Paul and Deron Willliams at the Olympics as a 17-year old. It just seems like the classic example of teams overanalyzing prospects in the weeks before the draft.

i love how they keep showing Rubio after a pick and he looks all salty and fake clapping
Kings make the first dumb decision of the night.
Rubio and ____________ to Portland.

If they took Rubio and Flynn, I'll laugh.
If they take Rubio and Curry, it will be damned interesting. That could be an awesome backcourt, but Jefferson would be 28 or 29 by then.

I don’t hate his game, but any team drafting him as the PG of the Future is in for surprise.
