NBA draft 2012

No thread?

I just turned it on and Jones III and Sullinger seem to be the early losers out of the gate.

Been calling my dad during cautions in the Truck race (it's been plenty of calls) mocking him for UK players going 1-2 and then basically being ignored until Jones went 18th.

They'll have six guys drafted before the end, including the first and second picks--your dad will get the last laugh.

The draft has become like an annual Kentucky infomercial ever since Calipari was hired.

 

[imjustagirl]

My dad won't laugh. He's already pissed. And if you think having six guys drafted "by the end" is enough for UK fans nowadays, I'm sorry for your warped world view.

 

[Stoney]

Well, six will be the most ever drafted from one team in the history of the two round NBA draft--that's not good enough?

Nice to see the Celtics drafted Acie Earl again.

 

[jr/shotglass]

My alma mater won't get six drafted this year.

Kentucky. Fans.

It might be enough for some. But others will take the gap from third to 18th as a slight.

 

[Stoney]

Fair enough. I am familiar with the Kentucky fan and, upon further consideration, I agree with you.

 

[imjustagirl]

Keep doing that and we'll get along just fine, Stoney.

I now just want Duke to have one more player drafted in the first round so I can say they had as many first-rounders as Kentucky. That will KILL the UK fans.

 

[imjustagirl]

DAMN YOU, CHICAGO BULLS!

Wouldn't they rather have like 3, or any, return and maybe win back-to-back?

 

[Stoney]

They expect to win back to back anyways.

Hey Chris Broussard,

Learn how to speak normally. You don't have to add five seconds of emphasis to everything you say. "Braaaaadley Beeeeeal is a hiiiiiiiigh character guy." Thought the Draft would be watchable without Stuart Scott on it, guess not. Thanks.

 

[BTExpress]

Just don't know any of 'em.

Evan Fournier? OK, whatever.

 

[DanOregon]

Glad Jared Cunningham was picked in the first. Sad to seem him leave OSU - but the guy is a gamer.

Reminds of something Calipari said after the championship game.

It was something to the effect of: "Our goal is to go undefeated every year. Our fans expect us to anyway."

So the Mavs just traded the rights to Tyler Zeller for the rights to three of the guys the Cavaliers drafted so far.

Four Tar Heels taken in the first round, too.

So the Mavs just traded the rights to Tyler Zeller for the rights to all three of the guys the Cavaliers drafted so far.

JESUS THE CAVS HAVE A TAR HOLE?

No wonder I hate the NBA.
