My sample Mock Draft

[Hendu0520]

Chase Budinger and Dejuan Blair would be great picks as well. Blair can give you a power guy and is strong with the ball, while I think Budinger can not only shoot well, but no one ever mentions his ability to defend. The Bulls biggest problem right now is defense. I went to the Arizona vs. Kansas game during Xmas in Arizona and Chase was playing great defense (he is long and very athletic) while I couldn't understand at all the hype about that guy Alrich, he seemed scared, weak, and couldn't hit a jumper at all. Jordan Hill was 10 times better than him, that night at least.

Isn't Atlanta where hockey players go to die?

Has to be one of the worst franchises to play for.

No they didn't. I talked to everyone on Earth today and they all said I was the first. They also said "No I won't sleep with you."

That's why I am saying it. I am trying to help it catch on, so you become filthy rich, and then you can buy them.

Re: Torch to ATL

Atlanta has been terrible in the past, but how can you say the team won't go places with an entirely new front office in place? Lets give these guys some time before we pass judgment, hmm?
