he should of responded with "were you this much of an ahole before you got this job?"
 
I want Drummond workout footage........ or should I just go find some Thabeet video?
 
This franchise has a history of picking the wrong big man!!!!! I really think that will be in the back of their minds.
 
Heard some footage of Drummond's workout is going up soon. Actually very interested in seeing this.
 
Seems like a nice enough kid ... and dammit, that's just the problem! I want a self-confident, semi-a-hole at number six.

I thought the same thing (BRoy). Lillard handled the media very well.

I think it's almost a lock that Portland takes Lillard, to me the big question is whether they can move up from 11 to snag him in the 8-9 range and get one of the other players (Drummond/Barnes/MKG). If they can't move up I think they take Lillard at 6. Given what he accomplished in college and if they feel that he will translate then I think he jumps into the same level as guys like Barnes/Drummond/Beal. If Lillard went to a bigger school then I think there is no question he would be a top 5 pick.
 
This week will be exactly five years from his first workout:

You know most of the big centers in the NBA are...enigmatic? to put it nicely IMO.....I mean Bynum, McGee, Jordan, even Dwight Howard...they all seem to be in thier own world at times....
 
It's so tough to see from a video like that what he can do. I will admit to not watching him play in college. This whole draft is straight stressing me out!

I've never been this unsure about a draft. I also didn't get a chance to check most of these guys out during the season, so that doesn't help.

If we stay at 6 and 11, our decisions will be mostly made for us. We'll probably really only be choosing between 2 "BPAs" at each spot. May as well flip a coin. :) (not really)

It's going to be an interesting draft night. It's my favorite holiday.

cool, I like O'quinn as a backup C, Plumlee as well, not sure O'quinn last until the 40 pick though
