Love Shabazz. Props to KO & JC. Class

I know Bazz is going to MIA but this is interesting. I think they meant "3 of the 4," though.

ESPN Stats & Info
Charlotte: drafted player from each of 3 UConn national championship teams (Emeka Okafor, Kemba Walker, Shabazz Napier) #CHAPick #NBADraft

duck I guess I'm a Heat fan now? Bazz and Ray? Bazz with Lebron, Wade and Bosh?

'will be the buzz of the next week'

 

[Rocktheworld]

Literally just said "South B-tch"

 

[BearJWS]

Now, who does Miami send to Charlotte? Or is it a future pick?

Can't believe Charlotte would help a division rival unless they thought they were getting something good. Have no idea who - since Cole doesn't solve their shooting/spacing problems. They'd be better off with Bazz.

Lots of drama this week from 'Miami Heat'. Who stays / leaves.

They got #26, the Miami 2nd round pick and next season's 2nd rounder, I think. That's pretty darn good value for a 2-spot drop at this point in this draft where it's kind of a crapshoot.

Edit: And Miami picks Hairston for Charlotte.

Lebron already on twitter! Congrats bazz you deserve it!!!!

Yeah - you're right. Charlotte got a shooter so they might have gotten who they would have taken anyway and picked up a couple picks out of the deal.

It appears to be Hairston, who was rumored to go to Charlotte... Probably Charlotte gets some extra scraps in return.

 

[Dynasty]

Getting PJ Hairston is great for the Hornets. They need shooting in the worst way.

You still post on RealGm? Their servers are crapping out BIG-TIME tonight. Way to prepare for probably the busiest night of the year, guys!

Congratulations Bazz. Quite frankly, things played out as my source indicated. Took a little heat for my prediction but events played out.

Once in a while. I tend to migrate to a team board when our guys are playing well for that team (or a day like today). When our guys are struggling, I tend to avoid it.

I thought maybe it was my wireless signal that was stopping me from getting on there - so now I know it isn't me.

Bazz has a good chance of starting for The Heat. This is about as good as we could have hoped for. Now, if the Big 3 will take lesser salaries, as the Spurs stars did, maybe they can add 2 more impact bench players and give the Spurs a real run for the title.

Wilcox means Da Clips are not sold on Bullock... I don't blame them, was never impressed with Bullock.

Speculation is the Clips are making a trade, so this may not have been their pick. No talk about Deandre whatsoever. For the umpteenth time, who advised the kid to leave school? I feel so bad for him.

 

[socal613ws]

Report: The Raptors are looking to sign and trade Kyle Lowry to the Heat for future draft picks and cash considerations. $@$@!$!

 

[joober jones]

Don't worry Bazz, the Heat play in Miami, not Tampa. You're good.

Hahaha. Don't change.
