    Great news! Thanks to Lance Zierlein of Sports 610, Draft expert Chris Monter will be holding a <A href="http://www.clutchcity.net/chat.cfm">chat session</a> at clutchcity.net Saturday at 2pm CST. I just got off the phone with him -- great guy. Should be a very good time so get your Rocket and draft questions ready....

    It's short notice so I would love to hear an unofficial word in this thread from the BBS regulars on who could make it -- would be great to give him a big crowd...

    Sounds great- I remember last year he had the top mock draft of all of them, beating out ESPN, CNNSI, Fox Sports, and all of the major mock drafts. I think he got 10 of the 29 picks exactly right. Anyway, I think I will be there. Count me in.

    Family commitment will take precedence unfortunately. Although I wish I could ask him what he feels about the depth of the draft this year.

    Have fun,C.

    Smeg-Starting? NIKEstrad thinks you've been doing it a long time.

    I'll be there, should be interesting to talk to him live.

    I used to like Thompson's analysis before, but if you've read his board lately, some EXTREMELY unprofessional things are going on over there.

    Monter's not too bad, can't wait.

    Since I can't make it, can someone ask him why he thinks we need a shooting guard?

    Thanks.

    Is there anyway that a link to the transcript of the draft could be posted for those of us who are not fortunate to be there? I think it is now safe to say that Clutchcity.net has reached the point where it could easily be considered the best NBA fan site in the history of the net. Whats next? First Monte, next Rudy and CD?

    Family commitment will leave me high and dry on this occasion. Hopefully, there will be a transcript of the entire chat session.

    I just changed my mock draft, and happened to go back to the front page, where there are links to Monter's Mock Draft. It was the same as mine. Crap! I sure hope noone thinks I copied his. I didn't know he had changed his. I guess if I can change mine, he can change his. Not that I remotely consider myself in his league ...

    Too bad I can't make it because I have to work this Sat. and I can't get into Chat from work.

    Like RocketSiv said, is it possible to publish a transcript?

    If someone can ask this question for me:
    If Rockets can't get who they REALLY want in this year's #9 pick, should they trade down and/or get another pick for next year's draft since there's been mention that next year's draft is deeper than this year's?
