Official 2K8 NBA Draft Thread

Raptors are dead. That team has major issues and Bargnani sucks balls. I was on-board with the pick so I can't complain too much, but when Rasho looks like Bill Laimbeer by comparison something ain't right.

But in the credit where credit is due department - Jameer Nelson can shoot, and Dwight is the closest thing to Shaquille since Shaquille. In two years I think everyone's going to see what a crime against basketball Rashard Lewis' contract is; he's going to hold that team - and Howard's career - back.

How 'bout those Hawks?

Josh Smith was fucking ferocious tonight. Check out those dunks on the highlights if you can.

Rims everywhere cower in fear when they hear J-Smoove's name announced.

There is nobody in the game that's more fun to watch than angry LeBron. Jesus.

You don't piss off Lebron James. Believe.

Spurs and Suns on right now listening to it via espn radio =D......what the hell is that smell?......I smell CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! WOOOOo

lol kidd is like the 6th best pg in the league at best

to be honest i don't think he's better than devin harris right now and harris is way more valuable going forward. awesome trade imo.

don't listen to everything that sports center tells you.

Wow. Yeah you're right, rat face is way better than Kidd. Devin Harris is way better than the guy that led his team to back to back finals appearences, gifted Kenyon fucking Martin a max contract, and has 100 career triple doubles/11 playoff triple doubles. GTFO

kidd is so massively overrated it's not funny.

cp3 (duh), deron williams, steve nash and billups are all easily better.

harris at the very least would have been better vs the hornets. kidd's defense has fallen off a lot and he can't do shit vs. paul. when you add in diop and two first rounders (also the fact that harris is ten fucking years younger) the trade was an abortion.

fun kidd vs harris article:

Yeah, you tend to have people calling you overrated when you're one of the greatest of all time. I guess we could call that the Deshawn Stevenson complex. However, you are obviously correct that old man Kidd can't check CP3... but who can? Anyway, Harris wasn't too good against D-Wade, although admittedly Wade is bigger, stronger, and absolutely unstoppable that series. The biggest piece they lost in that Kidd trade was LaSagna Flop though, I can't believe they gave up their whole interior defense.
