Official NBA draft thread (I.e. Waiting for Roberson to get drafted)

Remember kids, it's Dre's ball.

Pretty unpredictable draft so far. Noel gets drafted only to be traded for a future first rounder (protected).

 

[Darth Snow]

check that New Orleans got the 42 pick and 23 year old PG all star Jrue Holiday in return for Noel and some pick.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope? More like Kentavious Daldwell-Dope!

:wtf: Utah just traded 14 and 21 in this draft to Minnesota for Trey Burke... That makes no sense with Alec on that team and already under-utilized.

a burke is a pg and B they are getting a lot of trade offers on alec anyways

 

[Darth Snow]

I'm just hoping he gets traded to a team I don't hate. hate.

 

[Darth Snow]

more trading. Celtics pick up the canuck from Gonzaga.

DraftExpress, which had Andre going undrafted earlier this week, in their last update before the draft have him going to OKC with the second pick in the second round. That might be the "guarantee" we've heard about.

They. Will. Recognize.

Burke is a point guard, which Utah desperately needs.

Got it.

But **** Utah.

J'Rue Holliday for Ty Lawson? Did I just hear that right? WTF?

OK. I had it TIVO'd so that's not what they said but it sounded very much like it.

 

[Darth Snow]

New Rule for the NBA: All commissioners must be under 5'8". It's hilarious.

 

[JimmyBuff]

Just got taken by Twolves but going to the Warriors

 

[lawdogg]

Hey-ooo!!!!

 

[buff4bcs1985]

going to golden state by way of minnesota... First round pick...

 

[btbuff]

Andre goes to OKC. Or maybe GS. Hard to tell. Regardless it is the first round.

 

[Darth Snow]

Wow. That's awesome. Either way, as long as he's not on the Timberwolves, that's awesome for Dre.

 

[PuebloBuff]

Dre's ball! Really happy for him. He had to have heard a ton a sh!t from people since declaring. Some was valid criticism but I'm still psyched to see it work out for him.
So we're looking at three first rounders in four years. Not too bad.

 

[JimmyBuff]

LOL at Stern trolling the crowd.

Thunder trade for Roberson

 

[Darth Snow]

Someone stole ROberson from the spurs :nod:

Jeff Goodman ‏@GoodmanESPN6m
Andre Roberson is the shocker of the draft thus far in the first round.

 

[jgisland]

Golden St or the Thunder would be great for him. They both can let Dre be Dre, neither need him to be something he's not.

 

[Lt.Col.FrankSlade]

Since the Thunder only expects two players to score (Durant and Westbrook) it's a good spot for Dre. Unfortunately I don't know if he'll see the floor very much.

 

[rolandftw]

Great for Andre Roberson. Great for CU basketball. Can't be more happy for a guy to get his guaranteed contract.

 

[TDbuff]

There's been a ton of trades this year, right? I can't keep track of it.

That! Unbelieveable! BUt I'll take it.

Tad just got some great ammo for the recruiting trail with this pick!

 

[tante]

So happy for dre. Go buffs

 

[FLounder]

We need to get some memes made of this new commissioner. He looks like a straight up creep.
