Collison going a little early?  Hopefully some shooters will fall and we will jump on one of them in the early second.  That would make it a very solid draft.

I don't know anything about Jrue, but tk is getting me hyped. I'm glad the Sixers appear to be doing well tonight because the Phillies are stinkin' up the joint.

I'm guessing Jrue won't be ready to start at the beginning of the season (with or without Miller).. or will he?

From what I have read, I think of Holiday as a bit shorter but stronger Livingston.  Maybe not quite as flashy, but similar oversized PG.  Probably not the athlete to be a Westbrook level defender at the point, but should be at least as good a defender of both guard positions as Hinrich.

Now if we could somehow add either Ellington, Thornton, or Budinger I'd be completely satisfied.

Music to my ears, Tk.

They Hinrich reference was for Bebop...

BTW- hope they get a great shooting coach.  Guys like Lou, Thad and Jrue could be good shooters if they put the work in.

Touche, tk...thanks!

TOTALLY psyched about the pick.  A perimeter defender - what a concept.  VERY nice to have a big guy to play out there with Lou.  Hope that your Thad comparisons pan out...he seems to have decent shooting mechanics, so there is no reason to believe that he won't become a solid outside shooter.

T-Wolves just took Ellington.  Crap.

Still some good shooters on the board.  Meeks, Thornton, Budinger.

But it will be tough to acquire a high #2.

Sixers need to find a way to get in on the action.

Well it appears as though the going rate for a pick is a future 2nd... so I'm sure they can get in on this.
