NBA Draft 2009 - First Round 15th Pick (Pistons) - Austin Daye

[333funky]

Jerebko did way better than Daye this previous season..

[NEED4DETROIT]

@333funky Soo.... Thats not a surprise. Daye was drafted to help the Pistons a few years down the road, not immediately. In other words, Jerebko has a higher floor but a lower ceiling than Daye. If anything Daye is developing faster than expected (Leading the Pistons in points and boards this pre-season)

go Zags!!!!!!

[SnakeAce8]

I remember he use to hate us chanting, "D-A-D-D-Y L-O-N-G L-E-G-S~~~"""

[SnakeAce8]

hey tric i hope u weren't a pussy like half of northwood high. He played for woodbridge and their fans were twice as big as us, and as they stormed our court and we created a wall cuz we didn't want to seem them do it twice in the same year as us.

Both schools were from the same city (really really safe non ghetto city), yet they charged us knocked us over, and a 50versus 50 fight broke out.

I remember my boy getting slammed outside on the concrete and his bone in his arm was popping out

[amari2001]

LOL he needs to gain some weight.

[RealDefentertainment]

he needs to get on Shaq`s diet.

[965567greg]

he is taller than kobe by about 5 in"

but weighs less.... he needs to get a Tim Duncan body type

I remember he played against our H.S. basketball team during the playoffs his senior year....

He scored like 40+ points, and had like 20 rebounds and some blocked shots;

he actually hit some three's as well

(our schools center was like 6'6)

[tric792]

I remember he got in a fight during a HS Game. His school was always a rival to us and then he scored 44 points but kept showboating so our players got mad and big fight.

[DeTr0iTiGeRs]

should of got James Johnson. 6'9" 250. NBA ready and aggressive. Daye is just too soft.

[champking26]

john stockton=legend

[opatlion]

If he stays 190 lbs, at 7 feet he will get broke in half by guys like KG.

[walkingfridge81]

he'll develop, give him time. the pistons DO have the best trainer in the league, you know. in a year or two, daye will shit on the league, just watch.

[jtholla44]

no they dont phoenix has the best trainer aaron nelson...go suns

[walkingfridge81]

lol, remember mcdyess's knee problems the last four years?

remember how tayshaun missed so many games the past few years?

remember how rip has always had conditioning problems?

yeah, me neither.

arnie kander > every other trainer in the league.

[jtholla44]

Remember Grant Hill Orlando Days

Shaq before phx

steve nash back

[walkingfridge81]

what was so bad about shaq before pheonix?

what was so good about shaq in pheonix?

and nash still lays flat on his back on the sidelines whenever he isn't in the game.

[32JSE]

Yeah he is probably playing alot of positions, but if he plays center when Shaq is on the court he will get injured when The Diesel dunks or plays PF against KG or SF against LeBron.

[adi1096]

I like the sound at 0:30.

[ghettostar4200]

steal of the draft. if he gets stronger i can see him being and all star for years to come.

[axedogga]

What a great pick, Austin Daye will be a superstar. He'll take the pistons to the championship.

DEEEEEEEEEETROIT BAKSETBALL

[adi1096]

[UPSpimp]
