Popular Post DeNiro Posted July 8 Popular Post Share Posted July 8 Love this player. He’s the reason we were able to draft Hughes. If they didn’t go off the board for him Detroit doesn’t take Zadina and we don’t get Hughes. 3 2 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost forgot that was the same draft. 'twas a wondrous day indeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, it was clear that no one thought he would drop that far. I don’t think there was a major list that didn’t have him that high Benning was delivered a lay up and at least didn’t screw it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used to carry two cell phones with him, and looking back on it I wonder how many times I was in the elevator with him while he was making one of his gaffees. Actually come to think of it, maybe he got confused and said yes into the wrong phone? Edited July 9 by Bob Long 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember being pumped cause I thought Detroit was guaranteed going to take Hughes as he was a Michigan boy and we were going to be gifted Zadina 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never would have thought Hayton would be in the league longer than Zadina… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, although in a redraft I'm pretty sure Makar would still go before Petey, while I think Hughes would go number one in his draft year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
