    I honestly don't know what to expect. Usually, fans come in to the draft predicting it will go the way they predicted, but it doesn't. I want to say that the Rockets finally get that All-Star tonight, but part of me thinks they walk away with the 4 draft picks. It usually NEVER goes the way of what the fans think. One can only hope...

    I'm so stoked for tonight. I can't remember being this excited about a draft.

    Sounds like the Rockets are running things in this draft. I haven't heard many other rumors about teams making trades.

    It's No telling. Just don't go in too high or too low. This may be the year the Rockets do it big kind of has that feeling. If they don't get Dwight I feel people should not be upset there is still a chance to come out better with more good to great players than just one superstar.

    If they're no longer interested then that leads one to believe they have a better option at hand. Really interesting.

    I think this was already posted but...

    With about 5 hours to go, #Cavs still actively pursuing another top 10 pick tonight. Talks with the Warriors for #7 have stalled, but Rockets pick at #12 is in play. Don't see how Cavs do a deal that high without including Varejao.

    Or it could mean that they have realized the truth that Gasol isn't as good as he used to be. The guy played was under par in the play-offs.

    Edit: Cloudng8 beat me to it.

    Ha, not getting 4. They want to keep 4, add another lottery pick.

    I just don't see how they can suddenly just realize that we would belittling their intelligence but shoot I do that to rockets management all the time so you got a point.

    We could move Varejoa and it's up to Morey to get that 6-10 pick to move up to #4!!

    Serious negotiations don't take place in the media. The deadlines are upon us so it's now serious.
