with this draft being over... i can now say that the Bulls, The Celtics, and the Blazers had a good draft and have moved themselveds into contender status... i hope...

[AggieJohn]

houston's trade of Brandon Roy in the first round to memphis for shane battier is a roll of the dice...however, it does provide immediate help on the court.....the rockets also picked up a 48% 3pt shooter from marquette in the second round.....an okay draft for the rockets.....

i think the knicks screwed themselves over again
