    Only draft Fazekas if you can trade Novak for another player or a draft pick in the early second round. There is no reason to have both on the team. They are both tall great shooters who are questionable on defense. There is no reason to have them both on the team. I like novak but think fazekas is far better equiped to play PF which is where playing time will be available.

    Here's a fun scenario taking off on rumors that I've read here and elsewhere, particularly what Hank shared in the Diogu thread. I doubt it will pan out this way, but it's fun to speculate.

    First move:
    Rockets trade #26, Head, Spanoulis; receive #19, Brian Cook, #34 (Mavs)
    Lakers trade #19, Cook; receive #26, Head
    Mavs trade #34; receive Spanoulis

    Second move:
    Rockets trade #19, Sura; receive Ike Diogu
    Pacers trade Diogu; receive #19, Sura.

    If second move doesn't pan out, Rockets draft McRoberts.

    Lakers do this because they like Head's shooting, and could play him as a PG in the triangle.

    Mavs do this for no great reason I can think of.

    Pacers do this because Larry Bird really wants Morris Almond and doesn't think he will be available at the #26.

    Rockets do this for Diogu, obviously.

    {/end mindless speculation}

    What the hell was Stephen A talking about earlier? Is Seattle really trading Ray Allen to Boston for the #5?

    Yeah I read it on real.com that Sonics looking to trade Ray Allen and rebuild with Durant and salary cap space in a few years.

    That makes the list of trade guys

    1) Kobe Bryant
    2) Kevin Garnett
    3) Ray Allen

    This will be an exciting night to see who will get trade for what. I hope we can somehow be a part of these big blockbuster deals. :)

    Well I was kicked from the draft and god damnit am I pissed. This is ridiculous I'm staying up way late in a foreign country only to be with you guys and be able to have some analysis of the draft as it happens, yet I am unallowed because some one decided that only certain people can be in the chat. Bull****

    Why does watching anything NBA on Espn mean you have to endure Steven A.?

    Like how David Stern had to sneak in "Dominican Republic" after calling Al Horford as if to say, "See how international the NBA is?!"

    ATL taking Horford almost guarantees they are taking Acie at #11.

    5. Jeff Green, sounds like a Seattle pick if the Allen trade goes through. They have Durant and Green to replace Allen and Rashard.
