in 2010 NBA Draft
989 comments
The draftniks, an exhausted band they are, have made their final calls and barring trades, sales, purchases and natural disasters, the Nets are projected to take Derrick Favors, Jordan Crawford, Xavier's 6'5" SG; and Tiny Gallon, Oklahoma's 6'9" PF, at #3, #27 and #31.
Favors, who would become the Nets' youngest player ever, is projected in eight of the 12 mocks surveyed by NBA.com's Drew Packham; while Crawford is mentioned by three draftniks and Gallon by two. Although Favors' teammate at Georgia Tech, Gani Lawal, and Stanley Robinson, UConn's 6'9" PF Stanley Robinson are also mentioned twice, two of the top three--and the most updated--drafts have Gallon going to the Nets. Thirteen players got mentioned for the two picks.
The Nets have been mentioned in various scenarios that would have then trading down, trading up or buying an additional second round pick. That will all play out beyond the draftniks' reach.

Anyone but Favors
I’m begging you. Either take Cousins or move down for Monroe, pleaseeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!
Gawd please let the Nets take Shaq/Karl Malone/Rodman/Zo hybrid and forget about Yinka Dare 2.0!!!
…. talk about beating a dead horse.

LET THE SHOW BEGIN!!!
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE AND THE NETS ORGANIZATION
LETS GO NETS!!!
final mock
I think these are all great picks. Crawford could be the kind of instant offense guy that Nate Robinson is, and whatever you think of Nate, that’s an asset the Nets lack. Too often the second unit would come in and the scoring would stop.
Gallon is not as fat as I thought he’d be when I started watching him.
I really don’t understand the Favors hate. By all accounts he seems to be a high character kid. I’d prefer Cousins, but I have no doubt that Favors will be a dozen rebound guy in this league who will never be mismatched on D. That’s really valuable.

I would be pleased with those 3 picks.
" I'm really excited to take the worst team in the league and turn it to be the best in the league." --Mikhail Prokhorov.
That would be a solid
draft night w/ those 3 picks.
"I want to win now, not 3 years from now. That's my stance." - Kevin Burkhardt
So we're drafting Favors because we think he'll be easier to trade?
Yeah that’s a good reason to draft someone with the #3 OVERALL PICK IN THE DRAFT
Not because you like him or think he’ll be any good, but because you think he might be easier to trade.
WOW, I’m so excited about this pick I can hardly contain my excitement.
BTW
If you really want to draft the most valuable trade chip you should be drafting Cousins.
Blue chip “centers” are always the most valued commodity if they flash some game and keep their names out of the police blotter.
So basically all you need to do is keep this clown on a short leesh for a few months, let him flash his skills, and you’ll get WAY MORE back in a tade than you would for a PF who is a few years away from reaching his potential.
But hey, what do I know.
I really just hope we keep whoever we pick
I want Jerry Manuel fired now, not three years from now. That is my stance.- John Peterson

Is going to be really annoying. So glad he’s not our coach.

I may be disappointed, but I will cheer on whoever that will wear a Nets jersey. Lets Go Nets!!!

Wesley is definitely the wrong choice at 3 imo, but if we take him I’ve got to support him
Wes is solid!
Will be a great pick if that’s the case.

Knowing they are passing on the best player in the world, Demarcus Cousins.
Team scouts have been on the NetsDaily board doing their research.

terrible pick
I want Jerry Manuel fired now, not three years from now. That is my stance.- John Peterson
Can't believe it
They will regret it for decades
Over-Rated
That’s right, I said it, Wall is over-rated
Good Player? YES
Great Player? NOPE
Stuart Scott's eyes
is there something wrong with them?
Got hit by a football at Jets camp
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_Scott
Stuart was injured on April 3, 20024 in New York Jets mini-camp when he was doing a special for ESPN. Towards the end of a day at camp against the coach’s advice, Stuart was hit in the eye by a football thrown from a football throwing machine (Andrew “2.0” Dimetrosky). He underwent surgery the day of the injury and was out of work for a few months.
And now the questions begin...
Will the sixers pick Turner like everyone thinks, or will this night suddenly get very interesting?
Woj
Derrick Favors agent, Wallace Prather, still hasn’t been told if the Nets are drafting his client.
I'm with you
Wes Johnson or DeMarcus Cousins and I’m happy
Derrick Favors and … well … make me up in three years when he might be ready to make an impact
well how do you think she feels...

then, you would have to add a certain someone to the stupid catagory who is constantly on this board arguing for a certain fat guy who he thinks we should draft, because he actually thinks the NETS want Boozer up and above all ofther PF’s….. What a putz!!!
I felt like Thorn saw Kahn trying to mess with the media
with the whole Favors is out of shape thing, and he was like, “let me show you how its done”
Wolves just took a basketball player

what else could they do? Take a 3rd center?

Favors means Yi on bench! Riiight? Please?
If Nets only get Favors and no free-agent 4, I’ll still be happy that Yi gets bumped from the starting lineup/.
nope.
Favors is not ready. It’ll take 2 year for him to be starting quality
incorrect.
it will not take favors 2 years to overtake yi from the lineup
If he can't even sent YI to the bench
This was the dumbest pick ever!
It sucks being a Nets fan.
Nets just made a huge mistake.
Favors = rebounding, shot-blocking cover for Lopez
That’s what I want most, so let it be either Favors or Boozer or Amare.

Anyone have a Video???
No
He promised a title within 5 years, and Favors can make that possible. He wants a dynasty, so I’m sure he backs Favors
Means nothing.
Noone on TV thinks the Nets have a chance for any decent free agent. Not ever David Lee.
And they think Knicks have much better chance for LeBron.
Utah is where this gets interesting
First 8 picks extremely predictable
Can Boozer be traded? I think we would have heard something though.
Boozer for Yi and Favors.

Well I guess Thorn figures he can always do a S&T of Favors for Boozer!
Do you think Utah will do it?
Apparently Thorn would do it.
If LeBron wants Boozer, then Favors is going to Utah.
That may mean we have Boozer for 6 years!
well its worth it to me

LeBron isn’t allowed to speak
LeBron will just go elsewhere or stay in Miami now.
But then there is another month to work a trade of Favors.
Nets don’t like Favors. Nets didn’t like any of their choices.
Thorn has been trying all week to work a trade but FAILED
He can’t even unload Yi.
What a MESS
Jerry you talk a bit too much
Sometimes less is more…
Mark my word
Favors will be traded during next month when they start free agency seriously.

"I want to win now, not 3 years from now. That's my stance." - Kevin Burkhardt
yaaaaaaaaaaaay
oh wait we’re trading him NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
what's so good about james?
thanks thorn.
World Series attitude, champagne bottle life, nothing every changes so tonight is like tomorrow night.
James’ biggest strength clearly revolves around how hard he plays, a part of his game we don’t seem to have emphasized strongly enough in previous reports, and a skill in its own right. He brings an unbelievable amount of energy to the floor every time he steps out onto the court, being incredibly aggressive in pretty much everything he does.
That manifests itself in a number of areas—the way he runs the floor in transition, crashes the offensive glass, cuts and finishes at the rim, and just the overall toughness he offers. He is the leading rebounder in Big 12 history, averaging over 10 boards per game this season, and regularly is the one coming out of a crowd with a loose ball in traffic when his team needs an extra possession.
From DraftExpress.com http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Damion-James-1074/#ixzz0rpHxsyHv
http://www.draftexpress.com
So it's heart and passion?
Yay.
World Series attitude, champagne bottle life, nothing every changes so tonight is like tomorrow night.
you could make a serious argument that he’s as good a prospect as Wes Johnson. High scorer and high-efficiency scorer, super rebounder.
This is a great acquisition.
