Simmons is the biggest Boston fan in the world. I listen to the BS Report all the time and it's funny how bias he is sometimes. Other than that, he's a great columnist.

Draft Day Remarks:

- Top 2 picks were predictable, and thank the Lord, Minnesota didn't draft another PG.
- Irving is going to be a star really soon. Even though he played very little at Duke, he's just too good to be a flop.
- Enes Kanter @ 3 is really risky. He has potential but very little experience. I really thought Utah was going for a PG (Knight).
- Congrats to Thompson, the highest Canadian ever drafted. Sucks that he's going to Cleveland though.
- Valanciunas needs to bulk up and fill his 6-11 frame better to be a good C in the NBA
- Conflicted about Jimmer: we know he can score but can he be effective elsewhere in the NBA. He has a hot GF though.
- @ 13 and 14, the Morris brothers gets drafted. Makes sense for Phoenix to pick up someone with size and athletic abilities but I don't get why Houston picked up Marcus. They need a guard there.
