    Yeah, unfortunately that is our goal now. If we had kept McGrady and given him a chance to play, we'd be after a different trophy.

    1: Nets - Wall - another Rose/Wade
    2: T-Wolves - Turner - another Roy
    3: Warriors - Cousins - another Villanueva, experts say Coleman
    4: Kings - Johnson - another Joe Johnson
    5: Pacers - Aldrich - shorter Rick Smits
    6: Jazz - Aminu - draft day trade - Jazz select Whiteside for Houston
    7: Wizards - Whiteside - another Camby
    8: Pistons - Monroe - another Webber
    9: Sixers - Favors - BUST !!!
    10: Clippers - Motiejunas - role player
    11: Bucks - Patterson - role player


    We are @12 now and arranging it from a talent mock rather than a draft mock range i think Ed Davis and Al-Farouq Aminu is attached to our pick.

    I am supremely confident in Morey's ability to either pinpoint and draft the best player still available or package the high pick into a blockbuster S&T.

    Me too. "Tanking" hurts my heart, but for some reason I can live with the "experimentation mode".

    Same outcome, different mind-set.

    I like the idea that young players play more, so Morey can decide which player is good enough to keep or trade. We are not going to anywhere this year, plus that tank is better Toyata, I like this word.

    As much as I hate to admit it. I guess this thread is valid.

    Wouldn't it be something if we had 3 consecutive top 10 picks, two of them from NYK.

    The future is bright Houston

    Common guys it's not tanking... It's called developing.. We are developing our Bench and preserving our starters from any further injury.
