If the kings are also giving Evans, this deal becomes quite interesting....

Right here.

Unfortunately, I have a league game tonight around the start of the draft. So, I will probably miss the first hour or two. No worries, I don't need to be there to hear them as they are picked. I just want to analyze the results during dinner later on or something.

Yeah, Evans and Drummond would be a great duo for Houston to reload with.

This day has been going by so slowly.

^^ I am not excited about Evans at all, I think he is way overrated, inefficient no D bad passer

There are reports saying that Dragic and the Rockets already agreed about a new contract.

Does it start in half an hour?

Lol Clark opts out when we have a regime wanting youth.

He really is a doofus.

Trying to recap what I've missed today. Fill me in if I miss an important detail.

-Earl Clark opted out. Doesn't necessarily mean we lost him.
-Jameer *leaning to opt in.
-Jazz trying to get Mo as Clippers try for Odom.
-Rockets maybe agreed already with Kings on #5 trade and other principles.
-Hoopsworld's Kennedy says Dwight is out, trade coming.
-Amick of SI.com reports later that the Magic are unimpressed with Rockets' offer and are looking to keep
Dwight.

So pretty typical ho-hum day so far :rofl:

I call no Dwight trade because Hennigan is betting he can keep him and make the team a real contender by 2013 summer. Probably no minor trades unless it's a salary shred for 2013. And I called the 19, 49 picks in the draft thread but I bet Hennigan buys/trades his way to ~28 and maybe even again at ~35. We come away with Wroten Jr, Quincy Miller and maybe Jeff Taylor or Tyshawn Taylor. Henry Sims is my 49 bet.

He'll find more than the $1.24 million we're paying him.

I'm actually not getting my hopes up for everything special for Orlando ..

I think we're just gonna use both picks and call it a day

A healthy Tyreke Evans on a decent franchise would be very good again.

It doesn't appear like we'll have a camera in our 'war room' tonight. AM 740 The Game is hosting a draft party in Lake Mary. Other than that, use RealGM and Twitter.

Ric Bucher just said on SC that the Kings/Rockets deal is unlikely to go down.
