Did Memphis have the best Draft of anyone?

Draft group photo

Yes, for what it needed, which was twofold: increase the talent pool at FedEx Forum and get some people on the roster that can guard in space.
With O.J. Mayo and Rudy Gay around, the Grizzlies will be able to score. Memphis needed to get better on defense to have any choice at even competing in the West. My NBA TV colleague Bruce Pearl, the head coach at Tennessee, summarized it succinctly: In his opinion, Young (the second-round gift) was the best defender at this position (small forward) in college basketball last season. DeMarre Carroll, the Grizzlies' second first-rounder, was the best defender at his position (power forward) in college basketball last season. And Hasheem Thabeet, taken second overall, was obviously the best defensive center last season. Having Thabeet will allow Lionel Hollins to move Marc Gasol from center to power forward. And all of a sudden, Memphis will go from one of the smallest frontcourts in the league to one of the biggest.

Nadir Haroub Ali (Canavaro) and Nizar Khalifan will be the first to join the team "Vancouver whitecaps".

Man City make approach for Eto'o!!

samuel eto'o

Manchester City have bid in the region of £25m for Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o,
The Spanish club's president Joan Laporta claimed City have made the 28-year-old Cameroon international a "stratospheric offer" to join them.
Reports have suggested the Eastlands club have offered Eto'o wages of up to £250,000 per week, which would make him the highest-paid player in the world.
City refused to confirm or deny that they have made an offer.
Eto'o joined Barcelona in 2004, signing from Mallorca for a fee of about £16m, and has since scored more than 100 goals in his five seasons with the club.
He helped the Catalan side to win a treble trophy haul of the Spanish league title, domestic cup and Champions League in the 2008-2009 campaign.
I am not sure that the demanding and tough Premier League will do the not very physical Samuel Eto'o any good - he will just be another fairly good player here
Mike_The_Blue
Eto'o scored the opening goal in the Champions League final in Rome as Barcelona beat Manchester United 2-0.
In doing so he became only the second player, after Raul, to score in two Champions League finals because Eto'o was also on target in Barcelona's 2-1 victory against Arsenal in 2006.
Already this summer City have signed striker Roque Santa Cruz from Blackburn for £18m and Aston Villa midfielder Gareth Barry for £12m.
And it is believed City are also chasing Manchester United forward Carlos Tevez, who is soon to be out of contract, and Everton defender Joleon Lescott.
Espanyol have also confirmed that City are keen to sign their 16-year-old midfielder Joan Angel Roman.BBC.SPORTS

NBA Draft 2009 -- Hasheem Thabeet Portrait!!

Ex-UConn star Hasheem Thabeet gives a playful shrug during media availability for the 2009 NBA Draft.

I'm Starting Draft Previews For NBA Teams, If Your Interested In Reading Please Don't Hesitate Memphis Grizzlies Picks 2, 27 and 36 Record: 28-58 The Grizzlies are young and an upcoming team, lets take a look at the Grizzles Free Agents Hakim Warrick- Resign Mike Wilks-Release Hamed Haddadi -Release Darius Miles-Release Quinton Ross-Resign

In the draft Pick #2 Hasheem Thabeet Hasheem is an impact player on defense and adds a bit of a scoring punch, Memphis was 21st in the league defense they should advance after drafting Thabeet. But like every rookie Thabeet will need time to develop Ricky Rubio For the people who think Rubio fits Memphis system, he doesn't. Rubio might be drafted by Memphis but he will have to play behind mike Conley he might be ready to be on the big stage in Memphis. My suggestion to the Grizzlies is to leave Rubio and let Conley develop over time. Pick 27 A.J. Abrams Now you can get a back-up for Mike, why draft Ricky and not get the big prize Memphis was aiming for? Abrams game is fantastic a bit under sized though. Pick 36 Dante Cunningham Dante can play the SF position behind Rudy Gay, if you look at the Grizzlies roster they don't have true SF besides Rudy. These 3 picks will Memphis a long way In Free Agency Sign a sturdy Center.

Sore shoulder forces Thabeet to ax workout with Grizzlies!!

Grizzlies General Manager and Vice President of Basketball Operations, Chris Wallace (http://www.nba.com/)

Hasheem Thabeet canceled a pre-draft workout with the Grizzlies on Sunday citing a shoulder injury, but he also had plans to talk to other teams

Thabeet was a combination of he's had some shoulder situations and he wanted to talk to some other teams," Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace said of the 7-foot-3 center out of Connecticut. "It's also what goes on this time of the year with guys showing, not showing, that type of thing. The gamesmanship of the draft."
Memphis officials have already met with Thabeet twice in preparation for Thursday's NBA Draft. Wallace said he expects to meet Thabeet later this week, but probably not for a workout.
The draft's top-rated big man, Thabeet averaged 13.6 points, 10.8 rebounds and 4.2 blocks (second in the nation) for the Huskies last season, when he was co-Big East player of the year.
A number of projections have him going to the Grizzlies with the No. 2 pick, others have Memphis taking Spanish point guard Ricky Rubio. The Los Angeles Clippers are expected to take Oklahoma forward Blake Griffin at No. 1.
The debate on Thabeet is that he is not an offensive presence, has only adequate rebounding numbers and may not be strong enough to battle in the post. But there also is the potential for continued improvement. The native of Tanzania did not start playing basketball until he was 15.
Sunday's cancellation does not affect the Grizzlies' consideration of Thabeet, although Wallace didn't reveal his draft plans.
"We go on what they do in their careers. That's the vast majority of your final grade," Wallace said. "The workout has very little to do with it. You're just covering yourself with the workout."
With Thabeet's cancellation, the Grizzlies watched Jordan Hill, the 6-10 forward-center out of Arizona, and Demar DeRozan, a guard-forward from USC, in individual workouts.
