Chicago's Pick

[Leetonidas]

So are we getting it?

[Horry For 3!]

I believe so.

[midgetonadonkey]

I believe so. :smokin

-horry

[Mr. Body]

I don't think so... Chicago losing bad.

[Horry For 3!]

I don't think so... Chicago losing bad.
We should of already had it.

[Mr. Body]

If it's Top 51 protected, it's ours. If it was Top 53, this game wouldn't matter; you're right.

[whottt]

Yeah...now the loss actually gives us a better pick if Cleveland wins.

[whottt]

Side Topic...

I was looking at the mock draft today and noticed Phoenix has 3 #1 picks.

Seems like we should be able to pull some kind of trade with them...I can't see them keeping all those picks. And we have done trades with them before with these current FOs.

[T Park]

Brent barry for their lowest pick? :) :smokin

[El_Mago]

Brent Barry?

Wow, I would not mind shipping Barry to a team for a pick, but not to Phoenix or Dallas.

I don't care if he is inconsistent or not.....

[SequSpur]

how in the hell does phoenix get 3 1st picks?

[Cara De Dedão]

how in the hell does phoenix get 3 1st picks?

I guess they have theirs and two from the Diaw deal... But I could be wrong.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

2 words


Joe Johnson

they might even get a lottery pick because the hawks traded the pick for joe johnson
it is top 3 protected though

[T Park]

Brent Barry would work just fine in Phoenix.

Can't play defense, sucks in crunch time.

Would work out great :lol

you are wrong about alot of things
so i will assume you are wrong at this to

[Cara De Dedão]

Hmmm... You're probably right... But since I'm wrong about a lot of things, we'll have to assume that you're not right, making me right about that other thing...


See... I win.

[SequSpur]

phoenix ain't trading shit to san antonio... get real.

spurs and suns traded before

[Cara De Dedão]

They should feel morally obligated though... The Barbosa trade sure does look like a steal right about now...


Yup... Hindsight is great...

[SequSpur]

spurs and suns traded before

who the fuk are you anyway?

[Cara De Dedão]

who the fuk are you anyway?

Uh... Ducks?

[ducks]

spurs traded Barbosa, Leandro to suns

suns owe the spurs now

[ducks]

Uh... Ducks?
lol

[SequSpur]

spurs traded Barbosa, Leandro to suns

suns owe the spurs now

For what?

the Spurs are the dumb asses... not the Suns.

[Big P]

how in the hell does phoenix get 3 1st picks?

1. Their own pick

2. Joe Johnson from Atlanta

3. Rajon Rondo from Boston


And the Bulls is top 51 protected & it sits at 53 right now so, we should have 3 second round picks.

Oh great, we should be able to find one Parker/Ginobili and a bunch of foreigners...

Nice.

[Cara De Dedão]

What's the point of a calling it a "Top 51 protected" pick? Why not just call it: "You only get to pick one of the 10 worst scrubs" pick?

[Big P]

Because this is one of the deepest drafts in history & anything can happen & we could wind up with a couple of nice players in the 2nd round.

No offense, but this stuff has been discussed about 5 times in the draft thread.

And no, the Suns won't deal a pick to the Spurs.

[Kori Ellis]

Spurs DO NOT get Chicago's pick.


Oh, so close: Chicago's loss to New Jersey on Wednesday night not only cost the Bulls the Eastern Conference's No. 2 playoff seed, it also robbed the Spurs of a second-round draft pick.

Chicago needed to finish with one of the seven-best records for the Spurs to get the Bulls' second-round pick as part of an October 2002 trade that sent Erick Barkley and $1 million to Chicago.

The Bulls' loss dropped them to eighth place overall. As per terms of the deal, Chicago no longer owes the Spurs a pick.

[Mr. Body]

I thought so; suck.

Sucks even more: Portland doesn't need yet another 2nd. They get it instead.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Wow, what the fuck was our front office doing on that one?

[THE SIXTH MAN]

This draft should be interesting.

[T Park]

They traded Erick Barkley.

Give me a fucking break, were lucky it lasted this long.

[Mr. Body]

It was a deal to save the Spurs money. Like usual. Chicago had to add something to the trade, so gave a nearly bogus chance for a second rounder that almost - one game away - came true. It didn't.

[Horry For 3!]

:flipoff Bulls for losing

[Bruno]

I won't lose some sleep because of that because :

- Spurs lack roster spots to draft ncaa players with late second round pick.

- This year international pool is quite weak. Players like Ali Traoré, Mirza Teletovic or Marko Thomas will be the international players available in the late second round pick and they aren't good nab prospects.

- The international scene is now well scouted by the nba. Finding a Ginobili/Scola with a late second round pick is now almost impossible.

[Hoy]

Our bench looked bad today.
I think we have to reconsider Scola.
Bonner is not good enough.

[whottt]

This sucks...all the major draft sites said the pick was only top 51 protected.

[exstatic]

Wow, what the fuck was our front office doing on that one?
Shedding Erick Barkley's worthless $1M ass.
