here is a quote pretty funny

Adam Morrison (6-8, SF, Gonzaga) -- Solid all-around player who has been compared to Larry Bird, Rick Barry, Wally Szczerbiak or anyone white. His game has no similarities to any person of color. None. Poor defense and lack of athleticism have scouts questioning how good he can really be, and mustache has scouts questioning his decision-making. Emotional player who likely will start bawling and rolling around on the floor if he's not taken with the first pick.

Rudy Gay (6-8, SF, UConn) -- Scouts drool over his size and athletic ability and think he can become a superstar. Only downside is the minor fact that he never was really all that good or productive in college and was actually quite disappointing in every conceivable way. But I'm sure that's nothing to worry about. Golden State would love to take him with the ninth pick, mainly because his jersey would be a huge seller in the San Francisco area.

This is just pure comic genius! lol


Quote:
The more I watch the World Cup, the more I'm shocked the U.S. team couldn't at least get out of group play on the superiority of our health care alone. Here we have a wealth of resources at our disposal to treat injuries. Elsewhere it seems they have only aerosol spray cans. Every time a player from another country gets injured, his team's training staff runs onto the field armed with nothing more than an aerosol can. Once they get to the player, they lightly massage the afflicted area for a few seconds and then spray it with the contents of the can. Then they stare at it for a few seconds and spray some more. Shockingly, this rarely heals the player. Next, they seem to say something along the lines of: "Sorry, Carlos, but spraying your leg with hair spray does not seem to have healed you. Unfortunately, this is as far as medicine has advanced in our country, so we have no other means with which to treat you. We will now remove you from the field on a stretcher and take you to the hospital. They have aerosol cans there that spray both hair spray and deodorant. Hopefully that powerful combo will do the trick. Beyond that, all we can do is pray

Quote:
Rajon Rondo (6-2, PG, Kentucky) -- Often referred to as a "pure point guard" because that's nicer than saying "a point guard who can't shoot at all -- no, really, he's awful." Rondo is an extremely quick player, but he needs to put on weight. Of course, then he'll be a slow player who needs to lose weight in order to gain quickness. Bit of a catch-22 there.

Shelden Williams (6-9, PF, Duke) -- Very polished scorer with his back to the basket. Can also face up and score by distracting his defender with his face. Self-motivated, but will respond best to a fiery coach who drops f-bombs two or three times per sentence.

Quote:
J.J. Redick (6-5, SG, Duke) -- Armed not just with a jump shot or a dribble, but also armed for life. Big-name player who can sell tickets -- mostly to those who will want to come to the arena to heckle him. Showed great abilities as a leader at Duke and can really rally a team at halftime or during timeouts with a selection of inspirational poetry. Shot a team-high 42.1 percent from 3-point range last season and also was among the lead leaders in the ACC in blood-alcohol level.

Quote:
Jordan Farmar (6-2, PG, UCLA) -- Has great court vision. His ears also enable him to hear passing lanes that other players cannot. Struggles with turnovers and shooting, so he should fit seamlessly into the system of any team in the draft lottery.

damn so mean, yet so true

Quote:
Brandon Roy (6-6, SG, Washington) -- Dynamic player who will likely be called the "surprise" of the NBA draft next season (by East Coast media people who never stayed up late enough to watch him play in college). Only negative is that as someone who played four years in college and is nearly 22 years old, Roy is quite old for an NBA rookie.


So true. LOL.

This is pretty much, by far, the best article written about this year's draft so far.
