It was almost ordained that Stern would say San Antonio picks Tiago Splitter, wasn't it?

heh. so now they have Tiago Splitter and Luis Scola. And Scola is probably the best power forward in Europe. Not sure why they needed Splitter.

I don't think Scola is ever coming over. He is just too big a name in Europe to come over. He will earn more in europe than he would in the NBA.
Splitter is a great pick by the Spurs. He can stay in europe for a year and come over next season to be a ready made recruit for the already potent Spurs.

different type of players. Both of those guys are used to win. Both of them can win You a game if needed.

It's almost 4am. I think I'll go to bed. Hopefully when I wake tomorrow I will find that the Kings made some sort of trade. I don't dislike Hawes, but I dislike the pick. We will all look back in a few years and wish we had taken Thad Young and Julian Wright. Hold me to it.
A proposed trade that could send Richardson to Charlotte for Brandon Wright?

This would make drafting Kwarme look like an amazing decision

Looks like Adelman wanted his Bobby Jackson.

I might just jump across the way to the Warriors.

He already got Mike James who is a Bobby Jackson clone. Why in the world did he need another one?
I know there has to be some trades coming up, but still Rockets fans are angrier than Kings fans.

I like the trade in my opinion. The cats have 21 million dollars in cap space so they get that SG they needed in Richerson and will have enough to resign Wallace.

Well tell me the differences. I know they're different, but its not that substantial. At least when he played for us a couple of years ago, he played somewhat similar.

Bobby Jackson when healthy (rare) has all star potential

Haha...Spencer Hawes pick = Peja pick in 1996. I am interested to see how this all turns out.

Well, they gave away Koponen for cash, but still. That's just crazy - every player I wanted.

Acie Law and Spencer Hawes are best to be avoided. Both are viewed as late-lottery picks, but they look like solid second-rounders from here. Hawes has an unimpressive rebound rate, which is a huge red flag considering he was bigger than everyone he played against. And for all the talk of his great post skills, he had a run-of-the-mill 55.0 true shooting percentage and didn't even have the best PER on his mediocre team (that belonged to Jon Brockman). A lot of folks think he can become a quality pro post player; based on his numbers, I just don't see it. ESPN
