    You can name up to three players who you think we'll draft (assuming we don't move up). Here are my top three predictions:

    1) Dahntay Jones is our pick if he's still on the board, No Doubt!!

    If option #1 is not available;

    2) Since it's obvious we missed a consistant shooter last year, I think we'll try to take one with this pick. (Kapono)

    If option #2 is N/A;

    3) With Collier on the outs, we'll darft a big man to replace him and also log some minutes at the 4 when needed. I also think we'll go Euro with this pick if selecting a big man. (Szymon Szewczyk or Zoltan Bencze)


    ok, it was 4. so what.

    Pick one player only if you want people to play. I pick Dupree btw. Btw,whats the reward if I win?

    But,if they move up,I think they want Kirk Hienrick or Ford or Perkins in that order.

    Definitely agree with your thinking DrPepper!

    1) Kapono

    2) Jones

    3) Walton

    Marquis Daniels

    At 6'6" he played PG for a season, and has played 4 positions while at Auburn. He is not the best shooter, but good, very good defender as well as VERY good slasher.

    Whoever we take at 44 will more than likely suck and spend his short NBA career on the IR with a broken fingernail. He'll join the list of Rockets punchlines that include but is not limited to Eric Meek, Serge Zwikker, Earl Cureton, and Roddy Rhodes.

    Too bad we wasted a 1st round pick on Rhodes.

    Somebody who's name you won't remember 4 years from now. Get ready to be underwhelmed.

    Venson Hamilton and Terrell Bell here we come!
