    Well, that goes with his report and I think another report from Ireland.

    But it's Mitch's decision and they're not leaking that out.

    I have no idea who we're going to pick. The wait is driving me nuts.

    In an earlier segment on the same NBA TV pre-draft with Rick Fox, Mitch himself wouldn't divulge, but from the things he said it seemed like he was leaning towards Okafor. So I don't know what to believe.

    Have they always had live performances before the draft?

    I agree but I'm also thinking the smoke is coming from a very real fire now. :D

    No, but ESPN has really started focusing more on the "E" part of their name since moving to their fancy new studio. Example, shows like SportsNation and their employing Marcellus Wiley, IMO one of the stupidest, unfunny sports people on TV.

    I think us Russell guys will be fine with Okafor but I'm worried the Okafor crowd is going to freak out if we grab Russell.

    If Min has stated that the are taking Towns and we won't commit it would seem that we are entertaining trades for number 2. No reason to be ambiguous if you intend to use the pick if Min has committed. Maybe we want to move back a position or two and get Russell and some other stuff.

    If Boston pulled off that trade for the #9, I'd be telling them to find a way to turn #16 & #28 into another top 10 pick & we can deal for the #2. I felt like we dropped the ball when Phx got IT so cheap last season, if we could get IT + two top 10 picks + the Brooklyn pick, I think I'd pull the trigger.

    Okay, after seeing Jahlil's suit, I'm switching to Russell.:)

    EDIT: Spoke too soon, D'Angelo has an equally ugly suit.
