Insane Draft…questions still abound

So Jerryd Bayless slipped to the Pacers. Although some mocks reflected this, I in no way saw this happening. It seemed like the best break the Pacers had ever gotten in the draft this side of Danny Granger. It seemed like the best break in the draft any team had gotten in quite a long time.

Then we traded Bayless. To Portland for Brandon Rush (#13 pick), Jarrett Jack, and Josh McRoberts. Or did we? Either way, it has Pacers Digestfuming. I went a bit crazy after the “trade” myself but now I am settling down to it.

Now the way things are going it may have never happened. Other trades in the draft have already been announced by Stern’s lackey that does the second round of the draft, but he hasn’t mentioned the Pacers-Blazers deal. So really no one has any idea about what is going on.

But for at least one measure of certainty, Jermaine O’Neal has confirmed that the Toronto trade is legit, even though the NBA can’t really confirm it until July.
