If he was scouting that tourney he could have been looking at;

Derozan
Hill
Holiday
Collison
Buddinger
Harden

Not a bad group.

Im going to say the Knicks would be quite interested in Jeff Pendergraph IF they can pick up another 1st rounder between 18-24. He has the best mid range jumpshot in college basketball and he's 6-9.5 245 with excellent hops and long arms. Perfect player for the pick and pop and his athletic ability will translate much better at the NBA. He could really help the team

there's 4 guys in that group that i've had my eye on... would love to get Derozan or Hill, but if we nab an extra late pick then Collison or Budinger wouldn't be a bad role player to add to this squad if u ask me.

You like Hill TMS? He's good, sure, but I never see him have a huge impact on the games that I've watched.
Alan Hahn: Nate Robinson has been on a ridonkulous scoring tear lately (remember when he couldn't hit Jerome James with a Big Mac in early January?)

i do... he's got all the tools & type of game i think this team really needs right now... he plays on both ends of the floor & he's got D Lee type springs in his legs w/alot more athleticism & defensive shotblocking instincts... i think Arizona's gonna go far in this tournament, at least Sweet 16... if i'm wrong i'd be highly shocked... they got Budinger & Wise too who combined w/Hill make an awesome big3 for UofA... even tho nyk4ever thinks Chase Budinger is Brian Scalabrine, i'm determined to prove him wrong someday.

both guys can shoot the ball, but when has Veal Scalabrine ever had athleticism like this... combined w/his length, high arc & quick smooth release on his jumper w/elevation along w/his ability to shoot off the dribble, he's gonna be a pretty tough cover in the NBA IMHO:

I am also biased, but I agree that Flynn would look good in this system. Question is, how do you get a shot at him late in the 1st round?

He's great, but he shouldnt be the Knicks 1st pick

TMS there is so much about your post that I wanna comment on but it would be rehashing the same thing.

What I will add is this. Arizona doesn't even deserve to be in the tournament, the team is coming into the tournament 1-5 in their last 6 games. I got them losing to Wake Forest in the 2nd round, but believe me, they could EASILY and I mean EASILY lose to Utah in the first round and I know the seedings say 5 vs 12 but trust me that is upset alert central.

I saw a recent draft preview predicting that Flynn might go 15th. That would really be something. I can't see him going before the last couple of picks in the first round.

even bad drafts have good players. Hopefully we get a couple because if people get their wish we are looking at a 25 win team next year with Utah getting our lottery pick (which will no doubt be #1).

It will be interesting to see what kind of FAs we attract winning 25 games and getting booed everynight and trashed in the papers.
