    Fabricio Oberto has some big shoes to fill for Amir. Can Pop make young Mr. Johnson into an allstar?

    Oberto for AJ? Is AJ that bad? Does he really have no upside at all?

    It's a step up imo. AJ was never really used correctly by the Pistons. Maybe Pop will know how to make a shooter out of him or not.

    I think it's great that the Wizard traded away their pick because I don't see alot of potential in this class in the year's draft. The Timberwolvesgot robbed imo.

    I just reread it. Looks like Amir is going to Minnesota. Isn't Laimbs on his way there? Maybe Bill requested this deal.

    "The Washington Wizards and Minnesota Timberwolves have reached a deal that will send Timberwolves guards Mike Miller and Randy Foye to the Wizards for Etan Thomas, Oleksiy Pecherov, Darius Songalia and the No. 5 overall pick in Thursday's draft, sources have told Pro Basketball News.

    As it stands, the Timberwolves now have the Nos. 5, 6, 18 and 28 picks in the first round."

    They gotta make up for going behind the NBA's back with that whole Joe Smith fiasco.

    Lol, it's funny Minnesota thinks they got a shot at Rubio.

    Can Pistons pry one of those high picks from Minni and maybe get Thabeet?
