Shockingly, We Have Video of Knicks Fans Booing the Gallinari Pick

by Brett Edwards

And by "shockingly," I mean, "completely predictably." Still a funny clip though, and at least they seemed to be a little calmer than fans of the Sacramento Kings were last night.

Brook Lopez May Never Be Mic'd Up Again, Which Would Be a Shame

by Brett Edwards

Lots of fun goings on at the Draft last night, (read through the amazing 5-hour live-blog if you missed any of it) but this video of Brook Lopez being mic'd up might have been my favorite moment. Seriously, what a tool this guy is. "Oh, it's sooo boring waiting to see how many millions of dollars I'm going to earn over the next three years!" Awesome. Maybe he can work on his personality this summer while he works on his post game.

"LAWRENCE FRANK?!" Someone just bought himself some extra wind sprints his first day of practice.

NBA Draft Trade Roundup: Jermaine O'Neal to Toronto for T.J. Ford Is the Biggie

by Brett Edwards

A few quick trades to report today as we get ready for tomorrow night's draft.

Jermaine O'Neal to the Raptors in exchange for T.J. Ford: Good deal for both clubs. Indiana gets to rebuild with two first-rounders, and Toronto gets to team Chris Bosh and JO together (for at least the 50 games that O'Neal's healthy). Also, solves that silly point guard feud about who should start for the Raps.

Nuggets give trade their only pick to the Bobcats: Looks like Denver has no interest in the players who might be available at 20, and looks like Charlotte gets a chance to improve quickly with two first round picks. Nice move for the Bobcats, curious one for the Nuggets. Some possible reasons Denver might have done this.

Portland buys New Orleans' #27 Pick for $3M: Interesting move by the Blazers, who already seemed to have too many picks and players to begin with. Could they be stockpiling to move WAY up in the draft? Stay tuned.
