While we don't currently have a draft pick but with all these crazy rumors flying around, any draft pick from 2-60 could potentially be a ROCKET!! How excitin.....
But realistically we probably aren't going to get any draft picks on draft nights. Even if Morey trades for a pick, we probably won't know the details until a good time after the draft.

I have a huge man crush on slick Rick. If we can get him, I'll trade the whole team for him.
Ricky Rubio

Ban!
Doubt we'll nab one of those high lottery picks. According to Katz Memphis is keeping the pick. The T-Wolves are likely to keep both 5th and 6th and the Kings are high on Tyreke Evans.

I'm not very familiar with this year's draft crop. Are there any 7 foot stiff stated to go near the bottom of the first round? If so, he could be a rocket.

You couldn't ask for more than he did, but I have heard people say I'm more like Dikembe and Yao. Dikembe on D, Yao on O. Those are the kinds of goals I have set for myself. I haven't gotten to shoot the ball that much at UConn. But I was working on it all the time. I think I'll surprise some people with my offense.
Trade Yao Ming for Yaosheem Dikembeet.

DaJuan Blair is falling like a rock too, though he is quite under-sized.

Budinger's McGrady-like intensity he demonstrated in college is killing his stock. Such a damn shame.

Blair is undersized and he has a medical history. I was quite surprised to hear that he's projected in the mid 1st round. Great college player but he really is a 2nd-round player. See Craig Smith.
