    T-Mac this, Tmac that...he's coming people. We're going to have a mini-Kobe in town who can actually pass the ball and maybe even play a little point, but let's get to the draft!

    I like Nigel Dixon out of Western Kentucky. He's got soft hands, extremely long arms and is huge...320lbs of huge. Would love to get a guy like that to bang people around as there won't be many shooters around this late in the draft.

    I also like the guy from Cal-State Fullerton Pape Sow. Another bruiser who can board.

    Let's get more size on this team, especially if we're trading Cato and getting Mo Taylor version 2.0 (Juwon Howard) and no way JVG ever lets a rookie point guard sniff the court.

    More than likely it will be some guy we never heard of they will stash in Europe to keep them off the cap while they develop ala Badiane.

    No biggie we still have plenty of excitement ahead without dreamcasting a #55 pick.

    But we could trade up for Romain Sato, my personal sleeper pick.

    Mo Ke is not bad. With Yao here, it will make his transition much easier and his Chinese army team will be more likely to let him go if Yao pulls some strings.

    He is 6-10", 240lb, center/PF, who has 3pt range and never backs down from a challenge.

    Well that white guy next to that homer Smith says he has no clue about this Jin guy. He says it's worth to pick him, but don't know how he will do.
