Oh Snap! Judgments: Max's First Round Reactions
We will have many thoughts to come on the draft, but for tonight, we'd like to present you with Max's take on the evening. We haven't heard much from Max, but he was very excited about the draft, so he decided he would track his thoughts as he watched. Unfortunately, Max got sleepy around 9:30, so he didn't make it too far. Without further ado:
I can’t contain myself. I’m like the Hyundai tent event. If the NBA offseason is like a meal (and in this offseason’s case, the best meal the NBA has ever served) tonight is the appeteaser before the main course a week from now. We at No Regard know somewhere in between everything-about-college-basketball-ever and nothing, but dear lord are we invested.
1 – Wizards –John Wall – Snooze fest
2 – Illadelph – Evan Turner – Knock knock… who’s there? Evan Turner. Evan Turner who?
Evan Turner, aren’t you glad I didn’t say Derrick Favors?
3 – Netsies – Derrick Favors – SERIOUS frontcourt.
4 – Timberwolves – Wesley Johnson – Can’t you just hear the string of curses going on in his head?
5 – Kings – Demarcus Cousins – I’m gonna go out on a limb… he’s going to be a stud. Everyone has an attitude problem when they are 19-20 years old and playing for the best college team in the nation. If anything it just proves he’s got an edge, and color me crazy but I gotta think that everyone saying he’s a headcase is going to motivate him, which is dangerous becous (wink), save Wall, Cousins has the highest ceiling in the draft. He and Evans should be entertaining as hell next year and for those of you who haven’t had the pleasure, the Sacramento local announcers are about the most fun, one-sided people to hear call a game – tune in next year.
p.s. Cousins is gonna tear it up in fantasy as long as your league doesn’t count fouls and Ts.
6 – Warriors – Ekpe Udoh – HELL YES I GET TO SHOOT AS MUCH AS I WANT!!
7 – Pistons – Greg Monroe – Doesn’t he look like Greg Oden as a teenager?
p.p.s Another fantasy sleeper
8 – Al-Farouq Aminu– Would you rather be a Nigerian King or an NBA player? Also, Clark Kent much?
9 – Jazz – Gordon Hayward – SHOCKER! The Utah Jazz select a white player.
10 – Pacers – Paul George – Two things…1) The Pacers hat looks sick. 2) You gotta love people with two first names. I got a hunch that this was a great pick.
11 – Hornets– Cole Aldrich (To OKC along with Mo Pete) – You’re not in Kansas anymore! LOL
12 – Grizzlies – Xavier Henry – See ya Rudy Gay. (Zach Randolph: “I’m gonna take all that kid’s shots.")
13 – Raptors – Ed Davis – Loves Demar Derozan? I like this guy.
14 – Rockets – Patrick Patterson – God I hope he brings back his afro… he looks like stretch from NBA Street with it. I’m listening to him now and this kid has a great attitude. Actually FUCK THAT!!! HE’S ROOTING FOR SPAIN?!?!?!
15 – Bucks – Larry Sanders – No show! Booooo.
16 – Timberwolves – Luke Babbitt – Did they just draft Kevin Love?
17 – Bulls – David Stern just laughed before he read this pick. Either that or he’s drunk… Kevin Seraphin – He wears a sleeve on his arm so he must be good.
18 – OKC – Eric Bledsoe (To Clippers for future first round pick) – Nice dude.
First, love that Durant is there…I wonder where he’s going after this. My bet is the Sly Fox for 8 dollar pitchers… or that arcade bar in BK. MY GOD I LOVE THIS TEAM!
19 – Celtics – Avery Bradley – Shoots around 50 percent from the line as a guard… seems like a perfect fit.
20 – Spurs – James Anderson – Highway robbery… they just have something going on down there in SA.
21 – OKC (For Hornets) – Craig Brackins – blah blah blah
