PrintThe 2011 NBA Draft start time is at 6 p.m. CT, or at least that's when ESPN plans to begin its coverage, and this is the spot to talk about if that's what the readers are interested in doing. Hint: They are.
I'm not in the business of predicting things, but I have to assume the three-team trade between the Milwaukee Bucks, Charlotte Bobcats and Sacramento Kings probably made even the experts a bit unsure of what's going to happen over the next six hours -- and that's not even counting the draft-night deals that are still be strewn about around the internet.
The storylines I'm interesting in watching are going to be the rumored fall of Kemba Walker, which team takes a gamble on Jeremy Tyler, if Mickey McConnell or Kevin Anderson gets drafted and which player is wearing the prettiest suit. There are plenty of other things I'm intrigued with, but those are the important ones.
I'll try to be in the comments, but I've been commissioned to live-tweet tonight's ordeal for the SB Nation Twitter account so I'll have a few things on my plate. If it's too boring here, tweet me there!
Who's excited?!

I hope Cho & Co, know what they are doing
The Cats can ill afford to mess this up.

I think Cho has a pretty good handle on it
But who knows after that trade today. At least he didn’t lose it.

My mock is correct so far,

Seems kinda high for Thompson
I wish him the best though. He seems like he has his head on straight.

Looks a lot like Tyrus Thomas to me
The canadian version, I guess

Eh,
I think Thomas is a better player, but Thompson seems to have his head on straight which is more than I can say for Thomas.

Can Valanciunas do anything other than finish while cutting to the basket?
His highlight video was just alley oops and layups when he had a lane to the rim.

Not really. But hey, the guy is tall.

Interesting move trading George Hill for Leonard straight up. I really like Hill and didn’t think they would have gave him up unless it was for a chance to get Jonas Valanciunas who they sounded like they were real high on.
On Ed Reed:
"I’ve told him to his face many times, ‘You’re the greatest safety ever to play the game,’"
"We all learn from each other, but we all learn most from him."

They were trying to trade Parker first, but no one else was interested in taking on Richard Jefferson's contract in the deal.
They were only going to keep 1 PG and use the other one to upgrade a different position.

I'd like to see the Bobcats take J.Tyler, J.Williams, or Chadler Parsons
It’s a second round pick so I don’t think they have anything to lose.
