Anybody know the answer to this question?
Actually among the NBA nerds here I bet 90% of us know the answer.Anybody know the answer to this question?
Yeah that Twolves draft will always be looked at as one of the dumbest draft days ever. Even drafting Bowie over Jordan made sense because the Blazers had Drexler already.Jonny Flynn will always hold a special place in my heart.
I mean I really to this day have no idea why the Wolves opted for Flynn. He wasn't even a good pairing with Rubio. Steph would have been ideal because people weren't even sure if he was a PG. They knew he could put the ball in the hole and weren't sure who he could guard. Rubio was getting Jason Kidd comparisons, including him being able defend. It didn't make any sense at all.
I was resigned to the Warriors drafting Jordan Hill.
I don't know what's worse, Monty thinking this question was clever or you thinking you had some genius answer (and not even being sure of it)all taken ahead of Curry?
do you feel dirty being a white sox fan?All good p**n star names, especially James HARDEN
I'm far more a Giants fan now, but my dad grew up a Sox fan so they were my first team. And the idea was he wanted to be different from his Cub fan peers.do you feel dirty being a white sox fan?
I couldnt even sit in US Cellular with one of my buddies who is a White Sox fan without feeling dirty.
Why not just be a Cubs fan like any semi-respectable Chicagoan?
was he a south sider or a north sider?I'm far more a Giants fan now, but my dad grew up a Sox fan so they were my first team. And the idea was he wanted to be different from his Cub fan peers.
Yeah, I heard Mike Greenberg pontificating about how stupid the Blazers were to take Bowie over Jordan and trying to impress the NBA guy he was talking to and the dude said "Well, Portland already had Clyde Drexler and I heard he was pretty good". Greenberg's face just dropped because he so does love to suck up to his NBA guests.Yeah that Twolves draft will always be looked at as one of the dumbest draft days ever.

Same here, we were north siders.was he a south sider or a north sider?
my buddy is a north sider but always loved the sox because his dad loved them.
AND he absolutely hates cubs fans
The rainbows you receive are well earned and thus pack weight. Your simple rainbows given only for revenge have no meaning except to make you look like a fool.I don't know what's worse, Monty thinking this question was clever or you thinking you had some genius answer (and not even being sure of it)

I remembered seeing this video before the draft and I was wondering why he wasn't going top 2:
"he's a good a passer as anyone who has ever played college basketball" - Bob Knight
IIRC, Evans beat him 1 on 1 a few times or something like that so scouts were worried but literally everyone who watched college bball knew Curry was special.
I'm not saying he was a lock to be in the HOF and while he was a great shooter its hard to imagine him putting up the numbers he is in the NBA but I do remember thinking that he should go #2 overall.Listen,
I followed Curry as closely as anybody dating back to his senior year of high school when nobody (not even most college coaches) knew him as anything other than Dell's oldest son.
I knew Curry would be a good NBA player because of his skill set, but nobody in their wildest dreams imagined this. The reason he was under appreciated both by college coaches during the recruiting process and NBA teams pre draft is quite simple.
Steph Curry has worked harder than anybody and his improvement has been off the charts. His insane skills trump the athletic concerns that teams legitimately had regarding Curry. But, it was impossible to predict Curry would develop into an iconic, league changing player, because he wasn't close to that at Davidson. And when he was in high school, he didn't even look like a surefire D1 prospect.
