Trade Announced:  Dallas trades B.J. Mullens for Rodrige Beaubois and a future 2nd-round pick

32.  Washington Wizards  Jermaine Taylor from Central Florida

INTERESTING TIDBIT:  ESPN just interviewed the Chicago GM with the specific question, "How can you hold onto Eric Gordon and Luol Deng?"  The answer?  "We hope to hold onto Gordon."  The only mention of Deng was that he was fully recovered and back in the gym. 

33.  Portland Trail Blazers  Dante Cunningham from Villanova

34.  Denver Nuggets Sergio Llull from Spain

I like Cunningham but I expected him to be an option at 55. I’m really surprised Calathes wasn’t the pick.

by malarky on Jun 25, 2009 7:41 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

If Portland wanted to stash anyone overseas with its first-round pick, Nick Calathes should've been it.

Once Calathes contract with Panathinaikos ends after the 2011-2012 season, he could’ve come over and potentially replaced Rudy Fernandez if he left after his rookie contract.

by AK1984 on Jun 25, 2009 7:50 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Cunningham was singled out by Pritchard on multiple occasions today for his good workout, his 4 year college career, his NBA readiness and his toughness. Had he not worked out with both Hansbrough and Pendergraph, he might have been a show stealer. Like Brown, Cunningham showed steady statistical improvements throughout his college careeer and is known for his interior game, which seems like a big plus in the Blazers’ eyes this year. He’s slightly smaller than both Pendergraph and Hansbrough and given the reputation those guys carry with them I think he slots in below both of them. Nevertheless, Cunningham is definitely a name to remember.

Risk/Reward

Here’s what I don’t understand. Dnate Cunninham will never be a factor in the NBA. Good guy, but his game does not translate. Blair has the potential to fill a real hole on this team, and if his knees are shot, you give him the minimum as a second rounder. I’m baffled

from DX snippet

Cunningham is a tremendously active player who brings a lot of hustle to the court; this is pretty evident on the defensive side of the ball. He is constantly on the move looking to make things happen and has shown both solid anticipation and great timing. Cunningham’s lateral quickness is good enough that he is able to step away from the basket and cover perimeter players without being a liability to his team, and in fact forces a fair number of turnovers with his on the ball pressure.

Blair has knee problems

Batum has heart problems

KP messed up.

Even if Blair fails, not even taking a risk was foolish. Infact, it really was no risk.

gotta agree

no problem with ‘graph at 31, but why not take a flyer on Blair at 33? what’s the risk?

if chase buddinger is still there

take him at 55 or whatever we have left hes a great shooter… insurance policy against webster not being ready… had him going 1st round wonder why he slipped

The Blazers will play beautiful basketball.

Brandon will shoot the lights out. Blake will run and LMA will finish strong at the hoop. Bayless will play because we’ll be so far ahead in the 4th quarter, giving all the Jerryd fans something to smile about.

But wait, that’s not all. Rudy will go 5 of 5 from distance. Batum will posterize someone. And Channing will NOT lead the team in points.

Only reasoning

Because Brandon Bass needs to be promised every second that one of our 3 bigs isn’t on the court to sign with us. DeJuan Blair makes us look like a worse option to him.

seems like the draft threads are just full of us being SOOO disappointed. Until 6 months later, when we all say, Oh, I guess that was all right.

Brockman is seriously going to suck in the pros.

He made a living out muscling college players. He can’t do that in the NBA.

The point is

Blair is also only 6’7" and Brockman muscled him all over the court, so if Brockman can;t transfer to the NBA hard to see Blair doing it either

by Eric K on Jun 25, 2009 8:04 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

True...I never understood the crazy for Blair crowd.

Mostly due to the fact I never saw him play. I’ve seen Brockman play in person multiple times and on tv quite a bit. Brockman doesn’t have any transferable skills.
