Excerpts from Thorpe's Chat

The link has it all, but I don't know if it will be available.

Some excerpts:

MC Welk (SLC): Your top 5 PGs in the draft?

David Thorpe: In terms of upside? Hmmm, maybe
1. Rubio
2. Holiday
3. Jennings
4. Maynor
5. Lawson

Igor (Chicago): No Flynn or Curry in your top 5?

David Thorpe: Ouch!! Yes, Curry is in at #3, maybe I'd be convinced he's #2. I love him.

Sean (Co Springs): What makes Rubio so good?

David Thorpe: Mind and vision like Larry Bird's.

vanessa (Sacramento): do you really think the kings are good as gone in sacramento?

David Thorpe: If they hire Westphal, yes.

That Westphal line ...

… killed me.

Me too

and for so many reasons:

Wait, the Kings might be leaving?!?

Wait, the Kings might actually be considering Westphal?!?

Two Harsh Realities revealed from this excerpt

1.We won’t get Rubio.
2. We might lose our NBA franchise.

JR (Chicago, IL): I have not had a chance to watch Gortat play that much before this year’s playoffs but he does everything you want from your first big man off the bench. He rebounds, defends, runs the floor well, and does a nice job of setting and flashing off screens. Do you think he could develop into a solid starter— because I can think of 10 or 12 teams right now that he could probably start for?

David Thorpe: I think the number might be 15.
