We will be getting underway shortly. Going the entire draft so find a good spot and buckle in for the 5 hour ride.
Not even NBA players yet and the watches are sparkling from where I sit.
O.K let's get this thing rolling I should be joined shortly by Scott Carefoot and we will be getting update live from NYC from Holly MacKenzie along with thoughts from all of you. So with that I declare this Live Blog open...Let's Roll.
As you may have heard we have had a few trades. Shaq to Cavs, Vince to Orlando so that is probably a good place to start.
Not sure but there is likely a feed somewhere
What's really good, NBA fans! The NBA Draft liveblog on theScore.com is officially underway
Scott should be here in just a minute but if you have any thoughts before he gets here feel free to drop us a comment actually the he is
Nat, representin' London-town!
yea england has 0 nba coverage i can confirm
So this pre-draft trade action has been pretty boring, huh? Shaq to Cleveland, Vince to Orlando... YAWN. Wake me up when the real action starts.
Scott I just started to mention the big trades to start off before we get to Blake Griffin.
hootch: I think so. His size (or lack thereof) is his main question mark
you should read holly mack's piece she wrote on the score about him
Paul: I don't think Holiday is on the Raptors' radar. The 2 most likely picks are DeMar DeRozan and James Johnson
I agree Jonny Flynn is the truth and unfortunate that he has been on the rise so much I doubt Raps can get him if they stay at 9.
Some say Holiday is Scott but I think he would be a bad choice. Young and has a lot to prove saw him play a couple times and I felt less than impressed.
scott: according to holly - Holiday and Derozan are the two guys on the top of the Raps list
Pompey: My feeling is that the T-Wolves will try to trade 2 of their picks for the Grizzlies' #2 pick
Likely first pick little after 7:30
is this Amare trade going to happen??
Just a rumor right now, Nat. But the way Phoenix is playing right now, I wouldn't put it past them
Is Steve Nash demanding a trade the heck off the Suns...I would.
I hope not, Luka. He wants $10 million plus and he's not worth that
Hedo may not remain in Orlando according to folks on NBA-TV
i could be happy with hedo.. i am not sold marion works in toronto
Andre Aldridge was suggesting that earlier today.
with Orlando going with vince that essentially squashes any idea of hedo staying i think
Nat: I like Marion a lot better than Hedo. Marion is a better rebounder and defender, and that's where the Raptors need help
