    Again this is purley an academic exercise. I think with the two point guards available somedody is going to make a deal at the top but....

    With Bogut, Williams and Green off the board does NO go for need at SG, BPA one of the PG's are take a flyer on getting the next child star?

    I went with Wright because a woeful team that needs everything could use his scoring and versitility.

    why did you not include Green ?

    if Portland trades the pick, NO might pick up Green

    It was 16/14 that Portland took Green so he was off the board.

    The Hornets already have J.R. Smith, a pretty good scorer at the two. Antoine Wright, a fine slasher/shooter in his own right, would just create a logjam. Therefore, I believe Deron Williams will be the selection. He would instantly solidify their backcourt, giving New Orleans two young guards to build around, and would help set the tempo for an unguided team.

    also there is no way we reach #24 pick before the actualy draft unless we start doing 2 picks a day.
