Even funnier in retrospect

Cam all but guarantees that the draft class will go down as legendary after 1 pick while making cracks about “we need thumbs that go in this direction”.

and of course the first thing he says about taking Ginn over Quinn “I’ve known the Ginn family for 10 years”. Cam might have gotten some of those thumbs up if he hadn’t let his friendship with a family make the pick for him.

Thank god they got the tuna to make the picks or Cam would have pushed for his godson who punts for Oklahoma Panhandle State.

NBA Offseason: Trades & Rumors

What a hectic 2 days it has been with the Blockbuster trades and Kobe publicly lashing the Lakers. But It isn’t over yet though.. Here are some Rumors spreading around the NBA.

Boston/Golden State & Dallas race for KG

First Ray Allen now KG? That’s whats on NBA reportrs minds all around the country. The Celtics fans that are already frothing at the mouth with Ray Allen & Paul Pierce together may add another All Star to the mix. KG wants to win more than anything and now that Ray is in Boston could this be more of an incentive to want to go there. Golden state have recently re-instated their Interests in the Big Man after trading guard Jason Richardson for Draftee Brandan Wright.

Best and Worst dressed: NBA Draft 2007

We take a look back at the eventful NBA 2007 Draft by seeing who knows how to dress and who doesn’t. But it’s up to you, You have to vote who is the Best & Worst dressed from draft day 2007.

Nominees for Best dressed:

Wilson Chandler #23rd Pick, New York Knicks.

Keeping it simple William rocks up in a Dark navy blue pinstripe suit accompinied by that “Im a 23rd Pick white shirt”

Marco Belinelli #18th Pick, Golden State Warriors.

Very Classy but is his suit saying that he will only bring dark days to Golden State.

Nominees for Worst Dressed:

Joakim Noah #9th Pick, Chicago Bulls.

He has about as much style as he does on the hardwood. Joakim’s parents where very pleased with their son he has been trying to emulate clowns all his life and he finally got somewhere.

Greg Oden #1 Pick, Portland Trailblazers

After being alive for 56 years you would think he could pick up some style tips.

VOTE!

NBA 1st round mock draft 2007

1. Portland – Greg Oden – Better shot at title

2. Seattle – Kevin Durant – Yeah…

3. Atlanta – Mike Conley Jr. – Call him a reach but after passing up CP3 and Deron Williams this must be done. Hawk’s FO is not giving up on either of the Williams yet and Conley would finally give them a true franchise PG.

2007 NBA Draft – Ranking the Power Forwards

1. Al Horford

Horford is a strong, physical player. He is one of the most NBA ready players in this draft and contrary to the consensus, he does have potential. At 6′10 and weighing 245, Al is an ideal NBA power forward.

Who’s in, who’s out

Today is the deadline to withdraw from the NBA draft

Jeff Green – In
http://msn.foxsports.com/cbk/story/6935214

While he’s ready than most prospects, I don’t like the idea of Danny taking Green since he projects as a role-player. There are a number of lottery teams that could benefit from him so this will most likely be a good move on his part.

Spencer Hawes – in

I’ve heard the Timberwolves have a lot of intrest in Hawes.

Thaddeus Young – in
