Now, I know that we may all be sayin' "Why the heck would we trade with the Hornets?" We probably wouldn't, but with more trade talk being acknowledged by teams around the league than I have heard in a couple of years, I would not be surprised to see a lot of picks and players moving around this summer. Let's just make sure that we have base # 27 covered.

A little carryover business from pick # 26. For the first time in two years, a write-in qualified for the tie-breaker, but eventually lost in the tie breaker method of reverse raffle- last slip drawn wins. So, if you are one that has been voting "these 9 don't do it for me", PLEASE be sure to at least post the name of the player you want, so that we can take it into account at the conclusion of this vote. This is one case where being specific MIGHT get your man into the winner's circle.
Yesterday's winner was J. J. Hickson of NC State. He won a thrilling reverse raffle with our write-in hero, Bill Walker of Kansas State. So impressed I was with this performance, I am elevating Walker to the "9" for tonight only. However, he has to get more than 2 votes to stay on the ballot for # 28. Fair enough?
We are now down to the voting, guys. Let's get good with this one.
Claw on!
