    Yesterday, Chad Ford was on ESPNEWS doing Insider. He talked about some peoples draft status.
    1.Mike Jr. seems to be the Rockets backup plan.
    2.The Warriors want Mike Jr. They took Jamison(who wants to move to PF)with them to recruit. Funny because Jamison went to North Carolina and Jr. goes to Duke.
    3.Tsika is a lock for top 5.
    4.Chris Wilcox will prolly go 6 to Cavs or 7 to Knicks.
    5.Cavs will draft Wilcox or Gooden.
    6.Dejuan Wagner is moving down because he is too short, could go as low as 11.
    7.Borchardt could go as low as 12.
    8.Tayshaun Prince is moving up.

    So where is Butler going to end up?

    The Warriors are taking Dunleavy Jr. Memphis are probably taking Gooden. Tskita is going to be a top five pick, which means Denver will take him. The Cavs will take Wilcox, since Gooden will probably be gone. New York, the Clippers, and Phoenix have no use for Butler.

    Thanks for posting your news EddieWasSnubbed.

    It looks like I might have to change my Mock. I've been hearing alot of sources saying Wagner is falling in the draft. I have him going to Denver at 5, but if Skits is a top 5 lock then Wagner is probably the most likely to fall.

    I think Wagner is going to end up falling the most out of anyone in the draft. I think he will end up going as low as 8-11. He is too short to play shooting guard(6'3/4") and he cant play pg.
    I still got Butler going number 5 to the nuggets. I think he is perfect for their team. I dont think he falls past the nuggets.

    I seriously doubt that Dunleavy is ahead of Butler on the Rockets' depth chart.

    Tsika to the Grizzlies? It might happen, but two skinny 7 foot foreigners on the same team. Isn't that kind of redundant?

    I heard that Jerry West loves what Tsika can do.
