Catching Up With Ante Tomić & Tadija Dragicevic
2008 NBA Draft With the draft coming up, I thought I'd try to find out where last year's second-picks Ante Tomić & Tadija Dragicevic are at right now. First, I stated last year that neither one of them will end up playing for the Jazz. I still don't think they will be donning a Jazz uni soon,...
Polling GSoM: Which rookie forward will have the better sophomore campaign?
The 2009 NBA Draft class had a stellar first year. Derrick Rose, Michael Beasley, OJ Mayo, Russell Westbrook, Kevin Love, Eric Gordon, DJ Augustin, Brook Lopez, Jason Thompson, Anthony Randolph, Marreese Speights, JaVale McGee, and Ryan Anderson (Who would've thought? Everyone was thinking the Cal...
Revisiting the Final 08 Draft Board
As part of our ongoing effort for quality control here at Hoopus I thought it would be an interesting idea to revisit last year's final draft board to see where we went wrong (and right) with our college player rankings. After all, the way this season is going (even of late), one of the most...
Looking At Rookies on Ziller's Pure Point Scale
The following is an independent work based off of the previous work done by Tom Ziller for BallHype.com. While Ghostface Ziller was kind enough to provide me with the resources for this analysis, he was not involved in this project, nor does this column present any data he supports. I'm basically...
Premature Evaluation: Derrick Rose
Premature Evaluation looks at how certain rookies seem to be fitting in at this point in their very young careers, and what the next year looks like for them. It's based on an extremely limited set of information like summer league, and roster changes that we haven't seen in action yet. So we're...

JaVale McGee aftermath/appreciation thread
I think I've finally gotten rid of the negative feelings about this pick. I apologize that it took so long, and I apologize that I may have taken it out on those of you who are past the "screw this" stage (or were never at it). Like it or not, JaVale McGee is a Wizard, and we should root for him...
2008 NBA Draft Recap - Sonny Weems to the Rescue
During the mammoth eight hour long Ridiculous Upside NBA Draft live blog I joked that the only activity in the Nuggets war room was the janitor entering the room to clean up. Well, I guess someone was around after all as the Nuggets completed a late night trade with the Bulls and Trailblazers that...
In the land of the projects
I thought and thought for about 30 minutes trying to find a beginning to this post. Right now, I have nothing, so I'll just come out and say it. This is an extremely disappointing draft. I think we all agreed that the Wizards needed to come away with someone who could play a backup role right...
Draft post-mortem: 2nd round happens, Bulls still have Derrick Rose
They drafted Sonny Weems at #39, but word from the comments section is that ComcastSportsNet reports that Paxson is swapping that pick somewhere for some foreign player to be named later. [UPDATE: It's Omer Asik.] Whatever. Bulls draft grade is A++++++++++ They have their point guard and leader...
