From yahoo.com:
Round 1
Round 2
Jermareo was selected with the #36 pick by Golden State... good luck to him there. Good luck to him in Charlotte too :)
It's early, but I think my hometown Atlanta Hawks finally got this draft thing right. They got 2 players ready to contribute right now in Horford and Law. Heck, they might be the 2nd and 3rd best players on the team RIGHT NOW.
I'll add more later...
More (2:25PM):
- As Hville pointed out in comments, JD was traded to Charlotte. It's a lot closer to Atlanta, but Golden State was the place where Latrell Sprewell made a name for himself (on the court). I'd be lying if I told you I knew much about the Bobcats outside of Wallace and Sean May, so someone smarter than me (or at least more educated on the NBA Bobcats) can add whether or not they think JD makes the team.
- SEC Draft picks:
3 First Round Picks (all from Florida). Horford (3), Brewer (7), and Noah (9) are all top 10 picks. I can't think of a college team with that many in the top 10 in the history of the NBA Draft. I think North Carolina had 4 first round picks 2 years ago (2005 draft). Verified... 4 in the top 15.
Overall the SEC had 8 drafted. The 2nd round picks in order were Glen Davis (35) by Seattle (traded to Boston), Jermareo Davidson (36) by Golden State (traded to Charlotte), Chris Richard (41) by Minnesota, Derrick Byars (42) by Portland (traded to Filthadelphia), and Taureen Green (52) by Portland.
Josh McRoberts dropped to the 2nd round? I thought he was (according to the gurus) a mid to late 1st rounder. Can I use "FINAL TRAGIC BLUNDER" in this case?
I noticed that Stephane Lasme (UMass) was drafted by Golden State with the 46th pick. You know him from that dominating performance against us in the Not Invited Tournament first round game. It's probably a good thing JD was traded to Charlotte as Lasme would've been tough to beat out for a roster spot.
That's all I got... feel free to add comments as I readily admit I don't follow the NBA anymore (except for the highlights on Sportscenter... at times).
