NBA discussion thread

Lakers made a nice trade with the Pistons, they drafted some 7-1 center from Senegal with the 51st and traded him to the Pistons for Maurice Evans. This guy will be a solid bench contributor who can score in bunches and play some strong defense.

I think Reddick will do well in Orlando, im sure we will start to see alot of double teaming on Howard next season and Reddick can make a living by stroking the wide open 3.

Nice pick up at 31 Myth, James White sounds solid.

Blazers ended up trading him, which I think is smart. We have enough rookies from this draft so getting a future 2nd rounder was wise.

I also liked the later pick up the Blazers got in Sergio Rodriguez from Phoenix for cash considerations. Spanish Chocolate 🙂

There is no such thing as Spanish Choclatate is there?...unless i guess you consider the Chocalate in Spain to be Spainish Chocolate, in which case Yao would be Asian Chocolate....no, Rodriguez nickname should be Spanish Coffee.......

Phoenix would have been perfect for him, but there was no way he was gonna go that low in the draft, i figured Houston would have be the next best fit...with Yao and T-mac getting doubled he would be able to shoot the lights out in that offense with all the open looks he would get.

Who did they trade him to?

Don't shoot the messenger 😉

James White went to Indiana for Alex Johnson and 2 second rounders in the future. Blazers then traded Alex to Memphis for another 2nd rounder.

Cool, thanks Myth.
So do you reckon the Blazers are going to make any trades? I hear they want to unload Miles and Randolph but who would take on those contracts .................. Isiah? 😱

I love YouTube. Greatest invention since sliced bread.

I GIVE YOU RENALDO BALCKMAN!!

Patrick had the line of the night: "and it's probably a good thing"

Priceless.

And here's Steven A Smith eating some cheese doodles.

I can see what Isiah was trying to do by drafting a defensive player, but the fact remains that this cat would probably still have been available in the 2nd round.

I hear the Knicks fans are just about ready to burn MSG to the ground.

Hopefully they can trade one or both of them. How about one of them for Maglore?
