Who's First?

Good show tonight on WXYC "SportsRap"...You never know who stops by the show...Special thanks to Brian "The Bouncing Baby" Reese for stopping by the studio for tonight's show...

***I got in touch with my man, Billy "The Kid" Ammons in Charlotte today, and we talked about what else...hoops.

One of our discusssions was about who would you rather draft in next week's NBA Draft, Utah's Andrew Bogut or UNC's Marvin Williams?

Well, SI.com states in this article
that the Milwaukee Bucks, who own the first pick, are definitely picking one of the two.

It states..."We're drafting Andrew Bogut or Marvin Williams," Bucks general manager Larry Harris told the Wisconsin State Journal in an interview published Sunday.

Now, you know I love Marvin Williams, but I do love the passing game of Bogut. Yet, what I'm struggling with Bogut is that he supposedly scored poorly at the Chicago Pre-Draft Camp. I'm also freaked by a passer going to a team that can't run an offense...A la Atlanta, Portland, or any other team that doesn't have guys who know how to run and cut to the hoop.

Stemming from that thought, because of the short life-span of NBA coaches, I don't know if I would rather take Chris Paul...

With that said, if I'm Milwaukee, I may have to go with Marvin...And that's not because my address is in Chapel Hill...I honestly believe he has the most talent of any player in the draft. My only hope for him is that he's surrounded by a solid veteran or two to pass along a lot of the nuances and tips of the game. I just don't know if Joe Smith or Dan Gadzuric can do that for him.



Have some more funky stuff for ya'coming later...

P.S. "Seen in the Hill" - Marvin chillin' in his silver Hummer H2 outside Timeout...If they could only get a pic of him calling a T in the parking lot.

1-2,
