    Re: Who would you pick after Blake Griffin?

    Why poor Blake Griffin? Of the teams with a reasonable chance, I think only OKC would have been a better place for him, just because Durant is there. At least he's not going to a farm town like Sacramento or Memphis. Even though it's the Clippers, they have enough talent (well, solid veterans at least) so that he doesn't have to be a starter right away.

    Jonny Flynn will be a good 12-15 pick for someone, and he'll be VERY good.

    At the #2? I'd have to go with either Rubio or Hill

    I'd say Rubio or Brandon Jennings, probably. Of course, as soon as they get to the NBA, I won't care about them, so.

    Draft is just 3 days away. My favorite draft in all of sports. You either go to the Association to be a superstar or you go straight to the doghouse with Michael Olowokandi and Kwame Brown. Screw the NFL draft and their three year grace periods: "Wide receivers need three years to learn how to catch a football in the NFL!! I don't get why you don't understand that!!"

    If I was taking the #2 pick I'd take Jordan Hill, he's got speed, athleticism and has good shooting mechanics. But I do think Rubio will go 2 but this is dependent upon who gets the #2 pick
    I will take a 7'2" Shot blocker who plays defense, over a PG who plays offense only, any given day.

    Re: Who would you pick after Blake Griffin?

    So I have to ask everyone's opinions. We all know I'm a huge Syracuse/Jonny Flynn fan...and unfortunately, I'm also a NY Knicks fan. What do you all think are the odds that the Knicks(who could probably use a true PG) pick Flynn #8? There have been rumors all week of Flynn going as high as #4 to the Kings, and the rumors in NY were that the Knicks were impressed with Flynn's work outs.

    Not to mention, Flynn loves to run, which would be perfect for D'Antoni's system....

    I hope it happens, because it's one of the few things that would get me to care about the Knicks again.

    ^^Winner. Wavering on Rubio is offset by bonus points for exclusive mention of Jennings.

    James Harden hasn't let me down, though.

    The Thabeet and Hill picks are looking good though.

    Yes, there was sarcasm somewhere in that last sentence.

    jordan hill looks like a solid guy at keeping a bench chair from floating up and hitting the ceiling. hes also decent at scoring on d level talent when we're down by 25 with 5 minutes to go.

    So he's a notch above Robin Lopez or Sean May?

    Re: Who would you pick after Blake Griffin?

    I'm fine with my Brandon Jennings pick.

    But, yeah, Harden was the best choice.

    Dang. Thabeet had 3 votes. Sometimes it pays to watch things like Dejuan Blair boning hom excessively in the big east
