Draft-Eve

Kevin Pritchard could sire my child if he wanted to. Or, at least be a God Father to it. He bought the 26th pick from the Hornets. I have read tons of draft notes on ESPN that say we might pick some dude from Europe that I know will either never make it to the NBA because the dollar is so weak, or will be a huge bust and be traded away to a team like Minnesota, a la Kryhapa (or however you spell it) to Chicago.

I give this 26th pick about a 2% chance of it actually remaining with the Blaze show for the next 36 hours. I see this as a pickup used only to get more tradeable assets. If you don't think we are trading picks this year, all 6 of them!, you have been sniffing way to much paste.

This is what I hope for: 13th and 26th pick, Channing Frye, Jarret Jack to Minnesota for the 3rd pick and a cap-related player. They wouldn't do it, we'd have to throw in Webster instead. And they already have a Webster in Rashad McCants, but who knows, Kevin McHale gave Garnett to the Celtics. Crazier things have happened. And they sure as hell don't need anyone at the 3rd spot.

I am almost giddy like it's Christmas Eve waiting to see what Pritchard pulls off. And remember, we have Oden coming back this year, are you kidding me?! Even if he gives us 8 and 8 and 2 all year, wouldn't that be exponentially better than that lame duck Joe P we have in the middle right now?

Kevin Pritchard, I know Ty thinks you are an idiot for some reason, even though we are relevant again for the first time in a century it seems and everyone thinks we are going to be dominant for years to come, but I am behind you 100%! As long as you don't give Sergio an extension just so Rudy has someone to hang out with.
