NBA Draft Review: What I Learned..
June 29th, 2007
By Adam Stanco
The 2007 NBA Draft has taught us many things…
Joakim Noah has an interesting sense of style. The Blazers would’ve made all 60 picks if David Stern allowed it. Spike Lee likes Zach Randolph a lot more than Channing Frye. And Stephen A. Smith isn’t a big fan of Jason Richardson.
But of all the things I learned during the NBA Draft, this is what I learned the most…
1. NBA teams gave up on last year’s picks awful quickly
Unsubstantiated Speculation: Today's NBA Draft Rumors
June 27th, 2007
The draft
is finally upon us, which means the speculation will be swirling and may be a
little more substantiated as it has been the past four or five weeks. It’s kind
of strange to write a column leading up to an event that, within a span of three
hours, will disprove about 90 percent of what was written in this space. But,

(although last night’s horrible officiating should help detract the talking
heads from the lottery for a second). The majority of the reactions fell into

for the next 30 years. There was really nothing in between.
Unsubstantiated Speculation: Today's NBA Draft Rumors

With all the excitement of a
lead-in to Jeopardy! the NBA Draft Lottery takes place tonight. It is always a
glorious event. Where else can we watch the usually cocksure (and by “cocksure”
I mean oblivious) NBA executives sweat through their suits and smile nervously
while clutching some sort of lucky charm — like a lion’s tooth or gypsy tears or
something — knowing that some stupid Ping Pong balls could savage their
