Don't know if this has been posted but Brackins is not the 2009 mock draft He is going 18th in the 2010 mock draft. Do they know something we don't know?!

Someone just mentioned this in another thread. But it is great news regardless!

If I were doing a mock draft I wouldn't have him in for 2009 either. It's late April and he hasn't declared yet. If you're Joe Blow doing a mock draft and know nothing about the situation, you probably assume he's staying in school.

If what Chad Ford has happens, i'll be pissed. Pacers and Larry Bird can suck it for what they've done to Jamaal! Larry Bird would ruin Craig Brackins

Curry hasn't decided yet either, but he is still listed.

They apparently just updated their mock draft today. Earlier in the day they had him going in the lottery. Guess a lot can change still.

First of all i hope this mock becomes true...i want nothing more than craig to stay (it'll make up for the christmas gifts i never got as a child lol)

But like i think it was said earlier, i dont think we can read too much into this because almost everybody has a mock draft these days. Anyways, i think craig really wants to stay and i hope he knows everyone has his back. We all know he will go pro, but hopefully it's in 2010!!!

Say what you want about Larry Bird and how much he sucks as a GM or whatever his role is (you won't get much of an argument from me) - but to say that Bird and the Pacers ruined his career is straight up dishonest - Tinsley has done that all by himself by not being able to stay out of trouble off of the court. He has a bad rap league-wide - is Bird to fault for that? Have any other NBA teams been calling the Pacers for their interest in a headcase?

I like(d) Tinsley as much as anyone else, but don't act like his troubles weren't of his own doing...

The off the court stuff isn't even the problem.... It's his on the court, me first attitude that has gotten him exiled. He doesn't practice hard and sets a bad example. He's Stephon Marbury... just not as good. Both those guys got in more trouble and sent home because they thought they were above the coach and team.

Wasn't he just being compared to Danny Granger the other day by Chad Ford??? Danny Granger plays for the Pacers, why would they want 2 of the same play?

I think strip joints and lack of exercise have had the biggest toll on his career.

Saying brackins and danny granger are alike is stupid. Danny granger is a mini lebron type of player who is going to score 25, grab 6-8 boards, steal 1, block 1, make 2-3 threes and shoot 85% from the line. He is a guard and does not have the same game as Brackins.
