So the Suns picked Stanford 7-foot center Robin Lopez with the 15th pick and drafted Oregon guard Malik Hairstom in the second round (48th overall) and sent him along with cash to the Spurs for the rights to Slovenian guard Goran Dragic who look very promising (I have seen him play a few times and he's a very good young player) but won't be available at least for another year or two.
Robin's brother Brook was drafted with the 10th overall pick by the Nets. I wonder if it has ever happened before.
The Suns need a point guard NOW and a small forward, unless Coach Porter think he can use Diaw at the 3 position.
Lopez is a solid player, a good defender and rebounder. I am just not sure what this pick means for the Suns. I expect a few additional moves in the offseason and above all I expect a very different Suns team next season, maybe not in the roster but for sure in the way they'll play.
Go Suns !
