the kid in the Nets shirt and A's hat...doesn't he post here?
well, there goes chalmers, I'm guessing CDR is next, to portland, who rocked this draft
 
CHALMERS GONE CDR SOON

WHAT A JOKE NETS ARE THEY COULDNT TRADE 40 AND FUTURE 2ND ROUND PICK TO MOVE UP 5 SPOTS? IDIOTS
 
Thankfully Jordan is gone.
CDR or Bill Walker if they last? We need swingmen badly.
Thornkiki buy a pick, get em both.
 
I highly doubt CDR is gonna be there at 40. I'd be suprised if he makes it past this pick.

What is it that you dislike about this guy ? He's a solid post passing, strong in the block, has worked on his defensive game, made big shots in the tourney, What is it that you don't like ! Would you like the bust that the Knicks took # 6 or an overrated SG in Eric Gordon ? What is it ! and Bayless is nowhere near a franchise player, Brook Lopez fell in this draft because he was raw in defense, this offseason he's made it a priority to improve his D and shot blocking, what is amazing is he fell from potential top 5 to #10 a steal in that spot and a big that has a very, very good shooting touch, between him and Yi the floor is going to be stretched out on offense.

Brook Lopez dropped because he sucks. He shot like 45%, which is pathetic for a big man in college. His defense is overhyped, his offense is overhyped, and Bayless is far better than Lopez.
 
You know, if Thorn actually took Bayless then they could have worked out a deal with the Blazers where they got some of these late picks and got guys like Chalmers, CDR, etc. Instead, they took Brook Lopez. What a disappointing value at the 10th pick. A role playing center. They could have got that later in the draft + other assets.

Here's one person who understands why I'm so pissed off.
 
The Blazers for sure are going to take CDR. I'd be completely floored if they didn't.
 
You people are underrating Lopez and if you watch this draft CDR might drop to NJ
 
What the hell is going on? No one is taking CDR.

Does he have some heart defect?
 
I would be really pissed if CDR and Walker get taken these two picks before us. I would love to get either at 40.

CDR has a better shooting percentage than Lopez! And he's a SG! He shoots 3's! That's pathetic.
 
it's CDR or nothing for me. but look at the teams ahead of us...they're gonna snatch him right before us.
figures. he falls this far in the draft, and we can't get him.
hey, might as well take a center at that point!!
 
SO SO SO CLOSE to getting a chance at CDR. Just two more picks to go.
 
OMG.. ONE more pick to go. Take a Euro Bulls. A Euro! And don't blow it Thorn by passing on CDR for Euro Thorn!
 
bulls don't need a smaller guy. they're getting a center. they have to.
CDR might be ours.
please?
 
sweet CDR or Walker, at least one lasts to us, I hope we take whoever it is! the Bulls don't need another guard...
 
If CDR falls, here's the real question, do we actually pick him or waste it on some Euro guy....again
 
ok 1st rd should have gone:

1. jerryd bayless to the blazers for rush and jack.
2. kosta koufos

There aren't that many bigs w/ Lopez's shooting ability, Think about it man Kiki a scout who values shooting mechanics likes him, saw him in the tourney, mark it you will be proved wrong.
