May 20, 201511 yr Yikes. I'll take Russell if I have to choose. I know. I am in the minority on this one (maybe I should say out on a limb by myself :lol2:). I really think Booker is going to take off in the NBA. The thing I see in Booker is the drive and determination to be great. He really seems to want to be great. Last time I got on a UK player's bandwagon like I am on Booker was for Rondo. I felt Rondo would be a much, much better player in the NBA than he ever showed at UK.

May 20, 201511 yr Devin Booker will have a better NBA career than Russell. I think Russell may end up as the best player in this class. Love Booker and think he'll be fine, but I'll take Russell.
May 20, 201511 yr Well the Lakers are sitting pretty. Okafor or Kat will go one and then the Lakers would have a choice between who the Timberwolves Dont choose and Russell. I hope the Timberwolves take Kat because that would be a fun young team to watch with Wiggins and Kat.
May 20, 201511 yr Author I think Russell may end up as the best player in this class. Love Booker and think he'll be fine, but I'll take Russell. I think he will be the best player of this class also. Granted I am super biased and his jersey will be the last NBA jersey that I buy for myself but I love his game and his moxie. I hope he becomes a star and earns a spot in the "Best Ever NBA Players from Kentucky" conversation.
May 20, 201511 yr I will be watching a lot more NBA if KAT lands in LA. Haven't watched much since 98.
May 20, 201511 yr Lots of talk about whether Towns is going to try and force his way to LA by refusing to meet with Minnesota. I hope he does it. No one deserves the purgatory of NBA careers that is the T'Wolves.
May 20, 201511 yr I don't trust the NBA enough to believe in the lottery system. There were like 10-20 media members in the room during the process.
May 20, 201511 yr There were like 20-30 media members in the room during the process. They said at the beginning of the show that the lady with the envelopes is the only person in the world who knows the results.
May 20, 201511 yr I don't trust the NBA enough to believe in the lottery system. If they are able to rig the lottery it would be in the form of a magic trick. Select media members are invited to watch the process unfold in addition to team representatives and auditors to oversee the process. It is not as if there is one guy in the room drawing out ping pong balls.
May 20, 201511 yr They said at the beginning of the show that the lady with the envelopes is the only person in the world who knows the results. Not a chance. I don't think they meant she is literally the only person in the world that knows.
May 20, 201511 yr Not a chance. I don't think they meant she is literally the only person in the world that knows. Correct, there were 50 or so people in the room and they take all cells phones and communication devices away from them. They are stuck in the room for 90 minutes. They drew the results an hour before.
