But actually who cares about NBA draft?

I just donated. I have no problem with that, Draftexpress is the best draft site on the net. NBADRAFT.NET sucks badly. They don't even bother to position players by team actual needs or expected desires just who they rate above another prospect.

How crappy is NBADRAFT.NET? They have the Suns and Sixers taking only SG and SFs with all their draft picks.

Keep draftexpress free? boy let's see how many people *pay* for membership My advise to them--if's it to big to financially sustain itself--tone it down. Akrud is right--very few people care about the NBA draft and those who do watch college basketball already. Once you have to pay a *fee* for one site--then another--then another--bang-it isn't happening

They do have ads....but generally speaking ad clicks don't amount to much money because not very many people click them with out some sort of prompting.

Well... are they saying that with ample donation, they'll turn off all ad content?

They're a media site, with very specific content. I think there's only so much basketball/sports related ad content that can be funneled to the site.

I have no problem with them displaying ads. I'm curious why they don't have Google Adsense content on all of their pages. I haven't looked too deeply at their site, but they could probably do a fair amount of marketing to earn some money w/o distracting visitors from their core content.

I think they would really like to. I think they see Durant as being a special player while they view Oden more as a dominant big man. I must say I hold this view as well. This organization is so familiar with the whole take who you think is the better player. Intangibles should always be taken into consideration.
