    I'm honestly thinking, they are going to take long looks at Andersen and Hill, before making any move on a FA big like Camby or O'Neal.

    My guess is draft, unless Andersen and Hill's development is stunted at some point in the future, then they might feel a veteran PF/C could come in and help Hill develop/surplant Andersen. But if both (or really Hill) continues to progress nicely under the guidance of Scola, Hayes, probably a little Yao and asst. coach Sikma, I say they will draft someone younger (and probably later round pick as well) just to build up as a project.

    Jeff Foote
    from cornell he is a legitament 7 fotter and his game is on the rise he looks to be one of those sleepers that no one is talking about but that will play very well in the nba
    he has a high bb iq which will go great in him learning our plays and looks very athletic he has a very good mid range jumper

    The plan is to get that Luis Scola fellow as the backup big with someone like Chris Bosh as the starter.

    This draft is loaded with centers ready to play in the NBA. Trust Morey.

    Camby would be an ideal backup for Yao: a veteran defensive force who rebounds and blocks shots....but with a draft so deep with bigs and a jedi master named morey making the calls, we'll most likely score a young talented 5 who will contribute as a rookie.
