Smokescreen. We are hearing McHale's favorite is Lopez...no wait, Danilo, wait, Love, yep Love!

It's the one's that aren't being rumored that you should look out for.

If the Wolves FO is as aggressive as the fans want them to be, then we may take Love or Lopez... only after we get Mayo.

You're probably right on the smoke screen comment. Chicago & Miami appear to be trying like mad to leverage those first draft choices into more than their face value.

I smell a smokescreen.
Though, if McHale really goes for Love he should be ready for that to be his make or break decision. If Love wouldn't turn out great the Minny folks would run him out of town.

BTW: Like mentioned in that article, Love wouldn't be the #3 pick, as the Wolves would probably trade down a couple of spots, to get something extra.

Draftexpress has us taking:

4. Bayless; 24. Alexis Ajinca; 2-2. Omer Asik; 2-16. Kyle Weaver; 2-20. Goran Dragic; and 2-26. Gary Forbes.

Not a bad draft at all... DE is saying that Asik is the next Bedrienis; Alexis sounds like the second coming of Petro; Dragic is a defensive-minded big point guard; and Weaver will make everyone happy. Forbes, eh... who knows.

I hope that Minnesota takes OJ Mayo, because then we wouldnt have to pass on him to get Bayless.. i think Mayo is going to be one of the best players in the league.

Lets all hope Bayless pans out as a great PG.. He seems to be the pick from what everyone is saying.. cant wait for the draft, cant wait for Bennett to get nailed and cant wait for next some more basketball on the tv..
