    I'd trade Jordan Hill for him straight up without blinking.

    I like Darius Morris a lot too. SI's Sam Amick has us taking him at 23 along with Nikola Vucevic at 14 in his latest mock draft. That would be a terrific draft for us if it works that way, though it might leave many on this board howling in protest. Morris would make Goran Dragic and Courtney Lee tradable and Vucevic can be a solid 5 with some coaching and experience.

    We're getting Klay Thompson. Had it in a dream.

    Yes, but I literally dreamt we got Klay Thompson. He was really shocked to be a Rocket.

    Darius Morris is a Daryl Morey type pick, methinks. Morris should still be on the board in the early second round, if not at #23. Who could be mad at drafting the next Deron Williams with the #23 pick?

    Klays game reminds me of KMart. Would not be surprised if he is the pick.

    Kimba

    I think Kimba Walker well be good player in the NBA but there is no way Mchale is drafting a point guard. Yes i know DM can do anything and will do anything. But I see them going for a big man that can learn a lot for our new couch how is one of the best power fowards that has played the game.

    hey, quick question about the draft's start time, i'm on a bus from dc to nyc that'll arrive at 715.. is the first pick made just after 7 ET? espn.com says <b>coverage</b> begins at 7 ET, so i'm hoping that the actual draft starts at 730.

    Thanks... that will be 1:30 am here. A pretty good time if you`re used to watching Rockets games at 4:30 in the morning...

    Being reported that teams calling Sacramento for #7 that pick has already been moved, by Jonathan Givony. No one knows the team. Wow
