Official 2013 Draft thread

Can;t believe Jamal Franklin is still on the board. At least with Ledo, we knew about his short comings.

 

[PapaG]

Now ESPN is saying that LMA wants out of Portland.

 

[MickZagger]

lol Jalen Rose says we just got Grant Jerrett to replace Aldridge because he wants out. And, supposedly we got Isaiah Canaan?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

two big white stiffs in Leonard and Withey

Yes, but you're on record as stating that white stiffs in the second round are OK, just not in the lottery.

 

[B-Roy]

I hope they don't actually expect to keep every single second rounder.

 

[santeesioux]

Who the hell is the other guy?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Still no Fanklin!? I'm guessing we picked Jerrett for some other team?

 

[Mediocre Man]

ya good spot to take whitey

I wish I could see it

 

[RoyToy]

Grant Jarrett is Brian Cook

Eat it, Olshey

 

[MickZagger]

Kill me

Do you have some childhood trauma regarding white stiffs that you'd like to address?

 

[tlongII]

We did a great job with our draft picks IMO. We got a couple of guys that will provide depth immediately and a couple more with potential. I'll give them an A.

 

[DaLincolnJones]

think a more able Joel

 

[Rastapopoulos]

If we're keeping the last pick, I hope it's Carmichael. He's still unpicked, right?

he was an alter boy...

Channing Frye ‏@Channing_Frye

Good kid glad he's going to a great city. Embrace him #pdx he's going to be a great player in the future @grant_jerrett

 

[Rastapopoulos]

ya good spot to take whitey

It's spelled "Withey"

 

[illmatic99]

Will there be a press conference?

 

[santeesioux]

These dudes could be put on the d league team, so maybe the Arizona guy was for that?

 

[B-Roy]

Channing Frye ‏@Channing_Frye

Meh. The guy is like a poor mans Channing Frye.

 

[illmatic99]

It's spelled "Withey"

lol i always called him whitey when he was in kansas

I don't know anything about Crabbe, but if they would have moved and snatched the best PF available instead I'd be happier (Tony Mitchell). DL would keep him in line.

 

[RoyToy]

Brian.

Cook.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Usually when we talk about white stiffs in the NBA, it means they have no positive qualities. The fact ML was decent on offense leads me to feel he's more than just a bite stiff. Not saying he's great, but he's no stiff.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

lol Jalen Rose says we just got Grant Jerrett to replace Aldridge because he wants out. And, supposedly we got Isaiah Canaan?

If we were going to draft a PF in the second to replace Aldridge, I'd rather get Mbakwe or Howell.

 

[jlprk]

ESPN said Jerrett would have become a 1st round pick had he stayed in school. They repeated Quick's nonsense about Aldridge cancelling his lease. It wasn't their original reporting, so do not think that they confirmed Quick. Their source was Quick.

 

[OregonHuskerMan]

DAMNIT

 

[B-Roy]

Marko Todorovic will be taken at No. 45 by Portland.

What? I don't think we have the 45th pick.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Grizz get Franklin. It's a good fit: all hustle and he can't shoot.

 

[santeesioux]

Who?
