    He reminds me of Carter and he played very well versus the Dream Team last summer (in front of Rudy). Do any of you think that he would fall that far and would he fit in here?

    It'll depend on how he measures out, listed 6'6'', but most guys are a little shorter. Not a particularly good defender.

    If he'll fall, you never know. I wouldn't be surprised for him to go 9 or 10 or so, but don't think he'd slip much farther. He'd slip that far if his jumper isn't falling in workouts.

    I don't think the rockets have any chance of getting Richardson. He is expected to be in top 5, top 9-10 max. Plus Denver is probably the team in the most need of a 2. He is probably their most wanted player.

    I feel we need a defensive SF first and foremost. A guy like Richard Jefferson, Eddie Griffin or Terrance Morris. I personally would like to take Terrance Morris with our first pick. Late in the first round we can pick up a SG late like a Kenny Gregory, Max Owens or ever Nate James(*note we always go for Senior players). Then maybe a PF/C ,Jaron Collins, I like him a lot or even Kevin Lyde. Just throwing some names out there.
