Starts in 20 min.

Reported that Bulls will take Rose with #1.

I see lots of trades in the draft which should make it very interesting.

Damn, I came in here expecting a large thread on the draft already.
So, I'll comment on my teams.

I live in Charlotte, so I have to claim the Bobcats.
D.J. Augustin was a decent pick, but I think that his peak isn't too far away from his current ability. Low celiling IMO.
Pick #20 was just embarassing. A 7' tall skinny frenchman. Who only scored 5 points per game overseas. Really, Michael and Larry? Really?

Pistons: Again not happy with the first round pick. The dude reminds me of Shawn May. I think that he's going to be a flop, unfortunately. Plus I hate Indiana. lol

The blazers are going to be rediculous in a couple of years. They have a TON of talent on that team already.

agreed. I dont think they will make the playoffs this year unless the get everything and i mean everything to work.. with the west being so strong id place portland in the 9th seed. If they get everything working correctly they have a shot at best the 5th seed, but i predict them to be lottery bound again and again Pritchard will dominate in the draft. But you watch portland will be a championship contender in 3 - 4 years and has a good chance of even creating a dynasty
