Amar'e's tweet after pick:

Gr8 Pick. Welcome to the team Iman Shumpert. Can't wait to get started to become a better Defensive team. Let's go.

How does Chaos measure how "real" a fan is?

Says the guy who wanted Donatas....

You draft talent at this point in the draft. Donatas size alone would help his trade value.

Like this pick a lot....sick athlete, plays D, and good size for a guard. Think he will transition very well to the NBA and can make an impact early on.

Just north of Fallujah, I think.

WTF? How does a guy who's supposed to be one of our leaders give that kind of welcome to a new player?

Not that I don't love mindless rhetoric, but I'll bite. Why's Shumpert already glued to the bench?

Was MDA even asked about this kid? I hope so.

I like defense - I like the athletic ability - reminds me of the last big guard we drafted- Gerald Wilkins.

Some idiots think Shumpert is Mardy Collins, but they better start thinking more like Westbrook. This kid has great speed and lateral quickness. 7' wingspan. There's no reason to get upset given what was left on the board.

As for MDA. You think he didn't have say in this pick? I think he would love a kid like this. Shumpert is a great rebounding guard and once he has it he can start the offense and will be a blur on the break. Why in the world wouldn't Mike love that?

shumpert, td, fields, walker.

Kings just got Fredette, but maybe they make that Casspi for Douglas + cash trade mentioned about a week ago, to pick up a defensive oriented guard to get about 20 MPG while Evans and Fredette are on the bench.
