http://0rz.tw/4z79B After 60 picks and 100,000 trades, we now know who was selected in the 2009 NBA Draft and what teams they may be playing for in 2009. I will let the other web sites debate over what teams were the winners and losers. Here, our main concern is sorting out the agencies that were popping champagne vs. those leaving Madison Square Garden with their heads down. This post will cover the first round. A second round post will follow. First Round 1. Clippers - Blake Griffin PF/C – Agency: Excel Sports Management 2. Grizzlies – Hasheem Thabeet C – Agency: BDA Sports 3. Thunder – James Harden SG – Agency: Landmark Sports Agency 4. Kings - Tyreke Evans PG/SG – Agency: Wasserman Media Group 5. Timberwolves – Ricky Rubio PG – Agency: BEST 6. Timberwolves - Jonny Flynn PG – Agency: CAA 7. Warriors - Stephen Curry PG/SG – Agency: Octagon 8. Knicks - Jordan Hill PF – Agency: BDA Sports 9. Raptors - Demar DeRozan SG/SF – Agency: Goodwin Sports Management 10. Bucks - Brandon Jennings PG – Agency: BDA Sports 11. Nets - Terrence Williams SG/SF Agency: Goodwin Sports Management 12. Bobcats – Gerald Henderson SG – Agency: Wasserman Media Group 13. Pacers – Tyler Hansbrough PF – Agency: Excel Sports Management 14. Suns - Earl Clark SF/PF – Agency: BEST 15. Pistons - Austin Daye SF/PF – Agency: BDA Sports 16. Bulls - James Johnson SF/PF – Agency: Wasserman Media Group 17. 76ers - Jrue Holiday PG/SG – Agency: BEST 18. Timberwolves – Ty Lawson PG – Agency: Peake Management Group 19. Hawks - Jeff Teague PG/SG – Agency: BDA Sports 20. Jazz - Eric Maynor PG – Agency: ASM Sports 21. Hornets - Darren Collison PG – Agency: BDA Sports 22. Trailblazers – Victor Claver PF – Agency: Wasserman Media Group 23. Kings – Omri Casspi SF/PF – Agency: CAA 24. Mavericks – B.J. Mullens C – Agency: ASM Sports 25. Thunder – Rodrigue Beaubois PG – Agency: Comsport 26. Bulls – Taj Gibson PF – Agency: Priority Sports 27. Grizzlies – DeMarre Carroll SF/PF – Agency: Priority Sports 28. Timberwolves – Wayne Ellington SG – Agency: Wasserman Media Group 29. Knicks – Toney Douglas PG/SG – Agency: FAME 30. Cavaliers - Christian Eyenga SG/SF– Agency: ASM Sports Notes: Leading up to the draft, I really liked that Goodwin Sports Management was doing to get its clients connected on social networks. My man Nate Jones, a law student at UCLA, has been doing a great job helping out Aaron Goodwin and Co. on publicizing GSM client Twitter accounts and setting up Rookie Chronicles. BDA Sports seems to have dodged any potential negative recruiting ramifications from the company’s involvement with the O.J. Mayo scandal. Three BDA clients were taken in the top ten picks of the draft. Four BDA clients went in the top fifteen. Six in the top twenty-one! Where WMG made the headlines last year, BDA definitely took over the 2009 draft. Speaking of WMG, the company had three players taken in the top sixteen picks. And BEST had three guys selected in the top seventeen picks. WMG still dominated with five total draft picks in the first round. The first Israeli player drafted was taken by the Kings. The fairly new GM of the Kings is a friend, Jason Levien. I am happy for him because I think Omri Casspi was a steal at the slot picked, and Levien is supporting the Jews! One of my favorite players in the draft, Toney Douglas, was taken by a team who I think will really benefit from drafting him. Knicks fans should be happy with that pick. -- Walter Brown "Red" Auerbach Dennis Johnson Bill Russell Jo Jo White Bob Cousy Tom Heinsohn "Satch" Sanders John Havlicek Dave Cowens Don Nelson Bill Sharman '57 '59 '60 '61 '62 '63 '64 '65 Boston Celtics '66 '68 '69 '74 '76 '81 '84 '86 Ed Macauley Frank Ramsey Sam Jones K.C.
