Meaning Nash is definetly gone to LA now?

Man some real surprises, I thought Gordon was a smokescreen.... Harris I thought would be mid to late lottery....both mustve had incredible workouts.

Good news is the Bulls will have either Deng or Iggy available at #7.

Chicago has already won the draft...

Ben Gordon and Iguodala/Deng!

Looks like Bulls can get one of Deng or Ilugoulda (spell???) with their 7th pick.

You have to think that they have done ok with these two picks.

They must've really wanted Chris Bosh playing PF.

So does the Raptors start Hoffa and Bosh in the frontcourt, with Carter, Rose and Marshall on the perimeter? Offensive heaven...

Apparently it was rumoured on a radio station to be a done deal (Murphy to Dallas)... I read it on a messageboard.

Might be total crap considering Biedrins was the one meant to go #5.

If Pavel goes #11 the deal is still on...possibly.

 

[Borgsta]

cool thanks.

this is a chat transcript with Ben Gordon.

Garrett: Ben, Welcome to Chicago! What role do you see yourself playing in Chicago's backcourt, specifically how will you play along side Hinrich?

Moderator: (8:18 PM ET ) BEN: we're both guards who can shoot and make things happen. OUr games will compliment each other very well.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boston Rob: do you see yourself playing more a a PG or SG?

Moderator: (8:20 PM ET ) BEN: I'm a playmaker. I'm a guy who can do both. I don't like to limit myself and say that I am one or the other.

 

[St-KriS]

One thing's for sure. Crawford ain't coming back.

Luke Jackson to Cleveland
