NBA Draft Version 1

This is going to be extremely painful, and even more pointless, but I'm going to watch this thing, and considering I have my computer in front of the TV, here comes my first live draft blog.

25 mins until Portland is on the clock. Oh buddy. I'm gonna go watch the Reds for a while. I'll be back.

Joakim Noah is officially the ugliest man on earth. Who wears a freaking bow tie when they are that tall and have hair that long.

7 minutes. I can't wait for David Stern!! Oh yeay!

So I really hope we find out how old this Chinese guy Yi really is. Hearing everything from 19 to 24. Gotta love foreign government records.

The Charles Barkley-Dwayne Wade commercial on the golf course is awesome.

And the draft begins. David Stern looks extraordinarily pompous tonight. Knicks fans are in rare form tonight. Portland is On the Clock.

Portland is going to select Greg Oden. And they are really strange in that draft room. I've been in a draft room, and most normal people don't clap like that. Oregon people scare me.

With the first pick of the 2007 NBA Draft, the Portland Trailblazers select: Greg Oden, C Ohio State. Nice suit, but he looks older than my dad. Awkward smile too. Man he makes Stern look like a midget.

So here comes the most obvious pick in the history of the NBA. Wait, no...that was Jordan to Portland. Well atleast we know Seattle won't screw this up. Ummm...maybe not. Well, as much as I want this pick to be someone other than Kevin Durant, its not going to happen. Damn.

We have a trade. Ray Allen to Boston for Wally Sczerbiak, Delonte West, and the Number 5 pick. This trade only occurs if Jeff Green is still available at #5. That seems like an awful lot to give up for an old shooting guard. Heard Seattle wanted Rondo and Boston wouldnt give it to them. Danny Ainge may have done something right... And oh yea, Seattle picked that loser Durant. Atlanta is now on the clock.

I really like Al Horford here. He is an NBA ready beast. True story. We'll see what Atlanta does tho.

Atlanta just took Horford. And I just made the honest mistake of seeing Corey Brewer and Joakim Noah from far away range and assuming the long haired person next to Brewer was just some ugly woman. Nope. It was Noah. Ha ha. I hope he falls and falls and falls. Add Connely to the list of Point Guards Atlanta has passed on, including Deron Williams and Chris Paul.

The Memphis Grizzley logo makes me want a dip. And they select Mike Conely, so 4 picks in 2 OSU players and a Florida guy. Gotta love college basketball.

Here comes Boston....if this if Jeff Green, that trade is official. Write that down. And Mike Conely Sr. is about to have a whole lot of money. He is Oden's and his son's agent.

Celtics select Jeff Green. The trade will work as soon as it is approved. All Celtics fans in the room have to be pissed off tho because they are assuming they just took a younger Paul Pierce.

Here comes Milwaukee. Yi doesn't wanna play there. They want to select him. We will find out if there is a compromise, or if they select Corey Brewer and actually make there team better. Think about it. They need that type of player. The Bucks select Mr. Yi. And he really really doesn't want to play there.

Here comes Minnesota and their KG rebuildingness. Corey Brewer fits here too. Actually he fits everywhere. He's that good. And I wish he would have been a Wildcat. I'm only going to do this blog thing long enough tonight to bitch and complain about when Noah is taken. He is the only player going to be taken in this lottery who I don't think will ever score 13 points a game over the course of a season. The Twolves select Brewer. That's awesome.

The Fighting Michael Jordan's select next. He really wants to trade this pick. If not, and he selects Noah, they will go backward in the standings next season. The select a 2nd team all ACC guy from North Carolina. This team would be awesome in an alumni league. But come on, quit building an all UNC team in the NBA. May, Felton, Wright...run by Jordan...ugh. I still haven't eaten dinner. Screw this. Go Reds.
