    CBS sportsline - www.cbssportsline.com - has a poll: which team was the biggest winner (in the draft)?

    33.3 percent say bulls
    18.5 percent say Knicks
    17.3 percent say Rockets
    16.3 percent say Nugs
    14.5 percent say warriors

    I know this is not exactly a scientific poll, it just pains me to see such a travesty of the truth on display. This poll doesnt really mean jack squat, but please go vote for our Rockets just to erase such a giant falsehood.

    Rockets are edging up now! If we could just dispose of the knicks, I;d be happy.

    Bulls have dropped to 33.1%
    knicks down to 18.4%
    Rockets up to 17.5 %
    Nugs down to 16.2 %

    You've got to remember how many crappy deals the Knicks have done with Layden. Anything good would be seen as a miracle for those starving Knick fans (that said, haha!, I like to see them suffer).

    You mean the two biggest cities east of the Mississippi are leading? What a shock!

    I can't believe anybody would say the Knicks were successful. They could have had Caron Butler. So essentially they traded away a potential rook of the year in Butler (well, Hilario, but I'm being hypothetical), an oft-injured but long and athletic Marcus Camby, and a savvy veteran point in Mark Jackson...for Antonio McDyess (and a crappy pick or whatever). He's just coming off a season ending injury. Don't get me wrong. I love and respect Dice; he's a very good player. But there are uncertainties about his future. I actually feel sorry for him, I mean, can you imagine what New York fans will do when he doesn't give them the production they want right away? His ass will be booed right back to Denver. New York had a horrible draft. They just want to vote for the Knicks b/c they're the biggest, best, ect.

    Overseas pick that didn't go to a US college. Face it, Dream doesn't count in this situation.

    Jay Williams = Mateen Cleeves. He will only be an average guard in the league!
