Official 2012 NBA Draft Thread!!

Don't the Pistons have enough damn forwards? Kinda surprised to see how many mock drafts have them taking Henson.

They'll probably amnesty Villanueva, Maxiell has a player option that he may or may not pick up, then they have Monroe playing Center, so it's pretty much Jerebko (sometimes at PF) and that's about it.

I hope the bucks trade up for drummond. Sick of being mediocre. They need to take a high risk high reward player a la Jennings. Maybe trade Monta (even though he's one of my favorite players in the nba to watch). I hope Larry Sanders fades into the sunset; what a waste of a pick. He and Tobias Harris.

I'm looking forward to seeing who the Nuggets pick to keep their streak of finding gems with later picks. Last two years they picked Ty Lawson and Kenneth Faried with later picks.

Doubt they trade Ellis, him and Jennings played well last season with little practice. Larry Sanders i do agree with you.

If you're sick of being mediocre, Drummond probably won't help much anytime soon IMO

They're also rumored to be close to acquiring the #7 pick from Golden State or the #5 pick from Sacramento (and Tyreke Evans).

They want Dwight in Houston.

Yeah that makes absolutely no sense for them. No chance Dwight Howard will stay lol...
