Why is no one interested in this angle? [ 03-29-2011, 09:03 PM: Message edited by: Tokyo Blue ]

Don't know how it will effect the decisions of our players, but it appears the potential lockout will further weaken a weak draft. Kids who would be second round may move up to the first, etc. Maybe Lamb should test the waters like I assume Jones and Knight will do.

For me it is not interesting because I could care less about the NBA draft when March Madness is going on.
I hope all is going well for you in Japan. [ 03-29-2011, 10:38 PM: Message edited by: Trey Ball ]
-------------------- Wife's Mad. Told me we never talk anymore. And just last nite while watching super bowl told her 2 or 3 times to get me a coke and popcorn. Also told her not to forget to take out trash in the morning. Ain't that something. Also told me I was too indecisive. Can't figure out what to do about that. One nice thing I guess. She called me a pro crastinator. Don't know what a crastinator is but I guess I'm a good one for her to call me a pro. Gonna wait til tomorrow to look that up though. I love her but somrtimes can't help but thinking I should have told uncle Junior to keep his coon hound pup and stevens double barrel and also his youngest daughter.

I understand!
Everything is as well as can be expected here in Tokyo, considering the circumstances...
But, I am eagerly awaiting the emergence of my mutant power, from all the radiation exposure... I'm hoping for spontaneous hair regeneration... got my fingers crossed [ 03-29-2011, 10:50 PM: Message edited by: Tokyo Blue ]

The thing with the potential lockout is that it's such an unknown. I think someone posted earlier that the date for student athletes to pull out of the draft is before the draft lockout deadline. So how would the students know what choice to make?
I've said this before - there may be one or two college students every year that are REALLY ready to contribute in the NBA. All other should stay in college and increase their value. Oh yeah, and they can also get a FREE education.
