    I think they will try him at the 1 a little, hopefully it works out if they do, but I think it was a good pick though.
    Why so SERIOUS

        Magnum's better than Blue Steel, or is it the other way around?

        Overall, I'm shocked we drafted aggressively, way aggressively. Very exciting, you have to take some chances to get the rewards. Great draft.

        When's the last time we drafted a guy who has the potential to be an allstar and you knew it draft night?

        I think Stevenson will be a better pro than college player with his skillset.

        Plus these guys are young so much room to develop.

        Sure none of them could be on the team in 3 years, but to me it was time to take a full swing.

        Nice Job, I'm very happy with the draft. When's summer league?

          Agh! This is like, my fourth post on the Pacers board tonight. I need to count.
          IF it were true, I guess the brother either knew BRush well enough to chat with him (Hey, where's Danny?), was in a position where he would be chatting with him at just the right time (when the text came in and BRush repeated it in awe), or was in a position where he overheard BRush talking about it ("Dude, Danny just sent this to me...").

          Again, I am NOT saying this is true or anywhere close to it, but just throwing out something I read. I like to stir the pot.

            I have no problem with Bird's pick of George. He was my #2 pick behind Udoh. To be honest I never expected Udoh to be drafted that early. Really surprised.

            I don't care for Bird's picks in the 2nd round. They could have been better. Let's face it Ryan Reid! I know he was traded for Magnum Rolle, but I don't remember seeing either Rolle or Reid on a mock draft.

              Roughly a week or two before one or both of these guys gets hurt, probably.

                Reid could have been OKCs pick for all we know.

                  Understandable. Stephenson is a very iffy pick, even if his talent level is there. Some of the players available had been mocking much higher up to there. Personally, I think it's a shame Armon Johnson didn't drop to us.

                  And so late in the second round, I'd say its nearly impossible to mock. Different players have different values for different teams.
