NBA Draft thus far:
1: Kyrie Irving - cavs (melb born)
2: Derrick Williams - Wolves
3: Enes Kanter - jazz
4: Tristian Thompson - cavs...
Heard Irving wants to play for Australia but can't because he played for the USA in the Youths :(.
Wow, never heard of Irving? Is he a talent? An Aussie you say?? :)
I googled him.
So he was born in Australia & lived here for 2 years. His mother died when he was 4. :(
He want's to play for Australia and his stats look good. He holds Aus citizenship! So let him!!!!! ;D
Basketball Australia said they will do what they can to make him eligible to play for Australia

He still seems undecided if he wants to play for Aus or put his hand up to play for USA

He might not be good enough to play for the USA

CP3, D-Will, Rondo, D-Rose, Westbrook and Wall are all ahead of him. Also, there are your middle tier dudes who are also probably ahead of him atm as well. Don't like those chances.
Yeah well if I HAD the opportunity I'd play for USA. But if his smart he'd realize maybe it would better to play for AUSTRALIA!!! :P

Loved the Suns pick Markieff Morris he is the 1 player i thought the Suns needed. He could be a smokey for Rookie of the Year.
