    He said the following:

    - Will complete school
    - favorite NBA city (not team), Orlando
    - least favorite, Minnesota
    - team he wants to play for is Vancouver because of Bibby and Shareef
    - Is convinced he will be drafted #2
    - best workout was with Vancouver followed by Orlando and Chicago
    - Nets want to have another workout with him but he sounds reluctant to do so
    - thinks NJ will draft Martin

    What else did he say? What was the topic of the press conferense? Surely that wasn't all. As I understand it, the press conference itself was the major fuel for speculation that he would go back to LSU.

    It sounds like he will play anywhere, its just that he doesn't like Minnesota's cold winter weather. I looked at an almanac and Vancouver has pretty good winter weather. Like Seattle, it doesn't get cold or snow but gets lots of rain.
