Why don't you take a seat? Here, have a seat.

knucks with lloyd

FWIW, I fist-pounded him after I marched pre-game on Sat. night (I play bass drum in the MMB), and I was like, "Hey, Lloyd Brady!!," and he was like, "Hey, oh yeah!" in a joyful and enthusiastic fashion. Either he was smiling because he was recognized and enjoyed the recognition, or he was amped about the kickoff....prob the latter. He didn't seem put-off by me yelling his alter-ego into his face.

more Biyombo news, this time with trades!

johnathan givony is convinced bobcats will take Biyombo at 7 now after the bobcats-kings-bucks three team deal that gives charlotte 7th pick (along with the 9th pick that they already have), bucks get stephen jackson, shaun livingston, beno udrih and 19th pick, kings get john salmons and MIL 10th pick.

maybe Dumars and his staff won't have the chance to decide on all of these Bismack Biyombo issues. chances are they take tristan thompson at 8. or they could deal the 8th for 14 and 23rd picks from houston...

Biyombo back/knee source

Ryan Feldman of the Hoops Report on the back/knee issues:

I second the Congolese machine/Big Ben clone

My vote is for Biyombo at #8. Detroit has to re-establish its patented defensive identity and Bismack is the guy to start with. However, reports say his back and knees have worried some teams which to me is a red flag...but Arnie Kander knows what he's doing, so I'm okay with the pick, even with the *gulp* illeged knee problems.

In the 2nd round, I'm praying DMo is there, and praying even more that Joe D. takes him. Yeah, what everyone else said about luck in the future for Mr. Morris...and what better place to spend then in luxurious Auburn Hills, Michigan!!!

Another name that Detroit is reportedly high on is Jimmy Butler at #33. Yes, yes, and more yes. The guy brings intensity, heart, and defense, and the last time I checked, we need all of those things.

Hoping for another big at #52, maybe Craig Smith or whatever.
