Belated NBA Draft Thoughts

I love the NBA Draft because of how fast it goes, especially when compare to the NFL Draft. Here are some of the things I was thinking as the night progressed.

1. The Portland Trail Blazers have absolutely worked the entire league in these last two years. Snatching Jerryd Bayless from Indiana in the Brandon Rush trade was genius, since PG is probably the Blazers' weakest position. Now they're loaded at every position.
