I think Tiago Splitter would be the best pick here. He fills a definite need, he can also back up Yao, plays great defense and had flourished in one of the best leagues in the world. I would hope they have a good understanding of his buyout situation before they pick him, but if that is feasible I hope we go with him.
Portland buys Phoenix's pick for the second year in a row, and for the second year in a row they take a Spainish player (Sergio Rodriguez and Rudy Fernandez) with that pick. Weird.
Portland looks crazy on paper, consider this starting line up: Oden Alridge Channing Roy Francis I wonder if Rockets is going to trade Battier for Channing Frys + some others.. (Portland bought Phoenix #24, which is Rudy Fernadez)
ok. Were in a good position. Were going to have plenty of options. I do see the Jazz taking Almond though. They dont need any bigs at all. Leaves us with Davis, McRoberts, Splitter??
