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.

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.

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.

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!

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

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

Don't worry Bazz, the Heat play in Miami, not Tampa. You're good.
 
We're gonna be able to see Bazz play meaningful June basketball for years to come. Congrats Bazz!!! You'll be one of the only players with multiple championships in college and the NBA.

I'd rather have Wilcox on my team. Dude can shoot. Bullock is marginal.

2nd Round is coming up... Hopefully DD gets picked by a team who can develop him. Not being picked would be bad for DD's self esteem. Don't want to see another Stanley Robinson situation with loss of confidence. :(

How about those New York Knickerbockers? ;)
 
Didn't expect DeAndre to go in Round 1, but damn. I'm feeling quite sorry for DD at the moment.

Kyle Anderson was long predicted to San Antonio... Bye bye Diaw.

He's not even being discussed or on Bilas Top 10 available list. This is the same kid who torched Florida for 25 and 10 in front of the whole country. Awful guidance from whomever pushed this kid to go early.

DD is not Stanley talent wise. He has skill and upside, more so than some already taken.

To play devil's advocate: it's possible that early-mid second round (or wherever he goes) was his ceiling over this year or next. His stock might have dropped with a non-dominant senior season for a guy who would be 23 at next year's draft. This could be the best he had a chance to do.
 
While other teams are drafting athletes that don't know how to play basketball the Spurs are drafting basketball players that aren't always the best athletes. Kyle Anderson is Boris Diaw 2.0, The Spurs are just on another level than every other team in the league.
