Yeagermeister;2767926 said:It was a deal left over from when they were in Vancouver. Stu Jackson made a trade for Otis Thorpe and they kept pushing the pick out, not sure how, until we had no choice but to make the trade unless we got the #1 overall. So of course we get the #2 and have to trade. The irony is the player Det picked ended up signing with Memphis as a FA. :laugh2:

but wasnt jerry west there when that draft happened? im sure the grizz would have ended up picking a good player like melo, bosh or wade, instead of the absurd darko

Yeagermeister;2768107 said:Yes Jerry was around but he had nothing to with the trade other than being on the short end of it.

Gemini Dolly;2769573 said:Shut that **** up. LOL. You dont have to foolishly understate Kobe's game to make Lebron look good. Lebron is solid, but Kobe is the best player right now. he will pass the torch to Lebron at some point, but not anytime soon.
SLATEmosphere;2769627 said:LOL at you guys thinking Kobe is the best player. Kobe's a better shooter, but LeBron holds the title of everything else. He makes Delonte West and Wally Szerbiak look like Reggie Miller and Scottie Pippen. LeBron MVP..catch up Kobe.
MC KAos;2769714 said:i think the torch got passed on at some point this season, lebron is the best player in the world starting at some point early this season and will be for the next 5-8 years
