Timberwolves have the 2nd pick, and will probably select Williams or Irving. All kinds of rumors flying right now from Pau Gasol to Andrew Bogut coming to the Wolves. Gasol would join fellow Spaniard Ricky Rubio if that trade did happen, but the Wolves won't give up the #2 pick and Kevin Love in that deal. Also hearing that Cleveland is trying to get the #2 pick to choose Williams and Irving, with the Wolves selecting Kanter at #4 and receiving another player.

After not having a single selection last year, I'm looking forward to seeing the Bobcats reestablish the tradition of making horrendously horrible picks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlotte Bobcats draft history). xsighx

Jazz are hoping Irving or Williams falls to three. If not, it's a choice of Kanter or Knight. I'd prefer Kanter, but that's just me. Jazz may move down as well, but I don't think so.

Hey, Adam Morrison was a great pick! He has more titles than LeBron, Wade, Barkley, Stockton, Malone, Nash and Ewing combined!

Well, Ricky Rubio is now in town. Rumors flying all over the place. Love and/or #2 to LA for Bynum or Gasol.

I just hope the T'Wolves can turn it around and start winning. We haven't had a good team since KG left.

Bulls are sitting at 28 and 30, no good chance for a SG.

KG was a weird dude, glad to see him leave. I enjoy and enjoyed the Wolves more prior to and after his tenure.

Its funny how Minny never got better players around him to make the team more than a one man show.

They let him pretty much run the team. Rick Rickert tried out for the Wolves and put a move on Garnett for a basket. The other players started giving KG crap, so KG told Rickert not to do that again rookie. Sure enough, Rickert put the move on Garnett for another basket. Garnett punched Rickert so hard, he lost a couple teeth. Me thinks the wrong Celtic is called Big Baby.

One man cannot lead a team alone...proof was Jordan when he played for the Wizards. Jordan with Pippen and Co in Chicago is proof they had all the components of a championship team.

Garnett is one of the softest players in the league. Total pussy when it comes to people his size.

Bernie Bickerstaff is rumored to be the next Wolves coach.

So the Bobcats trade the 19th pick, Stephen Jackson and Shawn Livingston to the Bucks in exchange for Corey Maggette and the 7th pick (via Sacramento). They're also keeping their 9th selection.

Sad to see SJ go but overall I like the deal. xnodx

No major surprises, Irving #1, Williams #2, Kanter #3

Mavs flip the 26th pick for an athletic shooting guard that can knock down 3's in Rudy Hernandez. Get younger and better at the same time. Great trade.

Now it's looking like JB Bickerstaff, current T-Wolves assistant.

Especially when it landed us Bismack and Kemba. I think we can safely call this the best draft in Bobcats' history and a step in the right direction. I agree that sucks to see Jax go though. He will be missed.

There have been trade rumors swirling about Atlanta. Most feel they are a lock to be in the second round of the playoffs (and pretty much have been for several years now), but are still missing that one star to get them to the conference finals.

I wouldn't hate it if the Hawks brought Dwight Howard back home :)
