JR Smith, out of St. Benedict's HS in New Jersey!
**sighs** Amazing...all these damn draft trade rumors every one of them has legs instead of which ones...that's right, THE RUMORS INVOLVING THE SIXERS!
Why I say JR Smith will be picked 9th by my Sixers? Well first of all, I find it highly suspicious that one of the Sixers' scouts is former Duke great Bobby Hurley. Nice guy and all...but uh...where does his legendary high school coach of a father, Danny Hurley, coach at? St. Benedict's HS. How conveeeeenient.
Oh oh oh...let's not forget Jim O'Brien is in love with this kid. Everything he said about him makes Smith out to be the next great thing. Yet when hometown legend Jameer Nelson worked out at PCOM and abused Ben Gordon, made him look so silly....Ol' Jimmy Boy is like "Meh...he's good but he's not a top 10 pick....".
I am absolutely petrified about this draft. We are going to do absolutely NADA DAMN THING...but to sit on our thumbs and draft this high schooler. Now JR could possible turn out to be a lethal player...but he won't be anything this next season!!!
Which begs the question...Why are we drafting a high school guy for our future...and yet ALLEN IVERSON IS STILL GOING TO BE ON THIS TEAM? I don't care what Iverson's personal butt-squeezers aka the AI Homers want...he is not our future. You cannot and should not rebuild this team around a broken down player. Move him to the point guard spot, you say? HE'S NOT A POINT GUARD. I want to see a set offense ran by this team for once. This isn't happening with AI at the point.
Ok, I need to close this because I wanna go crazy and pull my hair out because my team doesn't want to get better.
FireBK.com will be put up after the 9th pick is announced.
