Did Blair break his legs this morning?

He's a great rebounder and inside scorer in college, and is 6'7", 265lbs. You know, just like Danny Fortson was.

Fortson was better than Blair in college, and decent in his first few years in the NBA, but then got exposed once he didn't expand his game. I like Blair (I'm a Pittsburgh fan), and hopefully he can do something beyond what he's shown so far, or else he won't be anything but an undersized (height wise) big man role player in the NBA.

If there's doubts about his knees (when he's not an amazing athlete for his size to begin with), then it's no suprise IMO that he's dropped this far.

 

[Dez!]

Cleveland to take Mills with the last pick of the 1st round?

 

[Primetime Pricey]

Toney Douglas!!!

FFS

Wolves pick Ellington to play SG. I actually think it's a great pick, as they need a pure SG, but surely they've gotta trade one of their PGs now for an F or C.

We need a SF. Badly.

 

[Dez!]

Finally Mills is in Bilas' best available list at 6.

Darko on the move again, should have stayed buddy.

God Milicic could have been good, bit of a nutter though.

 

[Deledio2Conca]

Mills now 6th in line in Jay Bilas' best available list.

Toney Douglas!!!

Oh well, you no longer need a PG.

And you just got Darko Milicic in a trade with Memphis too.

He's a great rebounder and inside scorer in college, and is 6'7", 265lbs. You know, just like Danny Fortson was.

Elton Brand shows talent and wingspan will suffice.

Forston was a 6'8 400 pound Screen ahaha.

 

[Dez!]

Cleveland take Christian Eyenga with the final pick of the 1st round in the 2009 NBA Draft.

 

[Goedy]

c'mon blazers pick patty mills

 

[Crows4Flag]

Good draft for internationals

 

[TheStinger]

Cleveland select.........Christian Eyenga from the jungle of Congo somewhere?

Is DeJuan Blair dead? He must have died with Michael Jackson.

 

[Dez!]

Do the whole draft Stern you lazy prick, don't pawn the second round of onto your deputy.

 

[Primetime Pricey]

Oh well, you no longer need a PG.

And you just got Darko Milicic in a trade with Memphis too.

Actually he is a SG. He is a Eddie House type player. Not what we need so we still need a PG.

Milicic is a upgrade over Q-Bitch. No doubt.

Did Stern have a massive smile on his face when Casspi was selected?

He's getting all the calls haha.

They gave each other the secret handshake.

 

[Damon_3388]

Elton Brand shows talent and wingspan will suffice.

Good point. But still, I wouldn't see Blair as being anything more than a poor man's Brand. I don't even think he'll be as good as Paul Millsap.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Dallas take BJ Mullen.....does this mean Dirk might be on the way out after next season? He will be a free agent...

I have reported your post for stupidity.

I could see Dirk wanting out based on Cuban/Nelson's utter unwillingness/inability to make any move to make us better while other teams around us are getting all stars for expirings (of which we have plenty) though

 

[WALL-e]

CONGO TIME!

Now for assistant dextro commish.

 

[WALL-e]

Good point. But still, I wouldn't see Blair as being anything more than a poor man's Brand. I don't even think he'll be as good as Paul Millsap.

Definately not as polished as Brand, but has Milsap potential.

 

[Primetime Pricey]

I cant believe Blair and Young havent been picked up in the 1st round.

 

[WALL-e]

Blair is "Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee falllllin"

C'monOtis, work your magic and get 2 2nd rounders. Blair and Mills.
