Greene would be a nice pick-up, it's possible we could get him in a trade if Memphis wants a future pick. They've already got Rudy Gay to play the 3.

Any interesting guys left out there? The ones I know are Shan Foster, Hendrix, and Demarcus Nelson. A couple SEC guys and an ACC guy.

Devon Hardin would be nice. Wishful thinking.

I'd love Donte, he reminds me a lot of Rashard Lewis, for better or for worse....but at the end of the first round you take that any day. Unfortunately I think he'll be staying in Memphis...

Who else is watching. Some of these picks are making me laugh hard.

Devon Hardin is still out there?

I would love to see the celtics grab Demarcus Nelson at 60.

Who is a Umass fan, hopefully Gary Forbes will be drafted soon.

The footage of that one Euro big getting his shot blocked into the hoop and getting flat footed rebounds was hilarious.

Bet this pick for us is an undersized PF.

Maybe we'll take Forbes and let them fight over the spot.

Hardin's gone, Hairston is gone, Walker gone.

I'm hoping for Gordon.

Anyone else get kind of irked at the way FSN handled this draft? I am not saying have mike and tommy and cous, and all those guys there. But geez, looked like Dickerson could care less.

Forbes is dropping, I wonder if ainge would select him....

Wow. Chalmers traded to Miami. I kind of expected on guard to go from the t-wolves. Good deal for Miami, they got themselves a good point guard.

I agree I wish FSN covered it somewhat...I guess maybe they wouldnt have to have a show all night but a 1 or 2 hour show wouldnt have been that difficult, from say 10-midnight.

Also, that is a bad trade for Minny, I thought Chalmers would be perfect for Minny as a pure PG off the bench.

I hope Mike Taylor makes it. I'd like to see the NBDL become a possible alternative to the NBA.

With two young guards I am actually hoping we can land Will Daniels out of URI. He was a 1st round pick the first half of the year. His a big 3 quick 4 who can score and reboun, kind of a quick Ryan Gomes not the same kind of intangibles.

Maybe we take Delonte's long lost younger brother, Deron Washington.
