    I read Jeff Goodman's POY rankings and thought he could be a good 2nd round pick.

    The Pistons usually have a draft pick towards the end of the 2nd round. Maybe that would be a good pick. I'll have to check him out the next time the Irish are on TV.

    My little cousin is actually the starting PG for ND this year so we've been watching a ton of Irish hoops. Luke is a serious interior scorer who is undersized by NBA standards. He gots some serious stuff down on the low block , very unorthodox game, kinda like Antwan Jamison, and like Twan, plays no D down there. Pay attention to the starting center for DePaul, Mac kashaw (or something like that), he's a 6'10'' sophmore who lit Harongody up when they last played, HE WOULD BE A COUP if we could get, pure back to the basket post player.

    What is this thing you call "pure back to the basket post player"? I think I have heard of it, but I'm not sure....

    It's pretty stumpy, but I've heard he has a large fore head and long knees.

    Actually it's folklore, I can't really prove it's existence, kinda like Bigfoot and UFO's. But legend has it that there's a guy in Phx named Shaqovich who's suppossed to be the last of these folklore legends..........

    Never heard of this Shaqovich creature. There were some rumblings about a BigCactus, though.

    If the draft were to be held based on today's standings, Pistons would draft at:

    #17 (Detroit)
    #36 (from Minnesota)
    #38 (from Toronto)
    #47 (Detroit)

    Shaqovich, you say? Odd sounding creatures.

    Kobe had on for dinner once.

    I wonder how their A_ _ tastes? :yuck:

    Joe, can't afford to miss on selecting and developing at least 2 prospects (PF/PG or SG). I'd trust Stuck to develop into a good PG, rather than a combo guard, if he had an LB type coaching him.

    You got to think that 17th pick plus a player could get them the 37th and 39th pick.

    Yea, Joe D is a crafty wheeler and dealer. He could pull something like that off.

    How about this: # 17 + 37 + 38 + 47 = #8
    And we find minutes for him. The rest of that stuff is DL.
