I don't really know how to rate this draft class, but can someone answer me this:

I hear people saying that we should trade Dwight to Houston if they can get the #2 pick. Is there really a player in this draft (outside of Davis) who you'd say "I'd trade Dwight for him"?

Cause if Houston somehow got the #2 pick, they'd have traded away a lot of assets and don't really have nothing left to trade except the pick & cap relief by taking Hedo.

I think we'd all be happy with this pick.

If Marshall is gone, then yes. However, I see both getting chosen late in the lottery.

3 minutes per pick in 1st round, 1 minute and a half for 2nd round picks? Am i right?

I'm a huge Tyreke Evans fan... I think that kid has A TON of skill and athleticism... big-time player... he just needs to get out of that bad environment in Sacramento

he is part of that bad environment, i would still take him though

yeah, Evans still just has potential. he's on a team where he is obviously the star (now joined by Cousins, but that doesn't disrupt him), and he hasn't transcended into the next level of scorers. he's not like a LeBron/Wade/Durant/Rose type scorer who can beat you by himself. he's like a less potent version of Monta.

but, the league lacks up and coming scoring options, and Tyreke may be available for a lower value than his potential offers.

whoever Hennigan starts bringing in, i'm going to think that he thinks they've got more to offer than what we've seen. so if he brought Evans in, i'd start getting excited.

Y'know, I swear I was feeling pretty light-headed today, and my stomach was hurting......

And now it appears I'm having delusions. Better head to the hospital.....
