i think its there 2nd time but i'm not sure i could be and probly am wrong.........they'd be crazy if they dont draft okufor....and how about them delaying the game a half hour just to see who gets the #1 pick...what the hell? there suppose to do that at half time like they have been doin for like the past 5 years

Its at least their 3rd. They selected O'Neal in 92. Then Webber in 93 (they traded him to GS for Penny).
It is going to be a weak year in the draft. Okafor should only be a #4 pick or so in the average draft yet he is expected to go #1 (plus he is injury prone). Dwight Howard could go #1 but will probably go to the Clips at #2 unless they want a different position.

Do you mean a whole forum for basketball or just one thread? Just one thread wouldn't work because their are too many different topics within basketball.

The Magic are prolly gonna pick Okefor IMO but they are really looking into Dwoght Howard cause they said " I've learned you don't want to pass on a youngster; it could come back to haunt you. Twelve teams passed on Kobe; 15 on Jermaine O'Neal, and six or seven passed on Garnett. That's not a good feeling, so you have to be careful. Real careful. "

It's such a tough call to get the #1 draft choice. I mean, who do you pick?
Okeafor's going to have back problems worst than Marcus Camby does...and he's not even a rookie yet.
But you really don't want to chance another young kid because of players like Kwame Brown.
I say surprise everyone and get Josh Childress from Stanford. He's tall and skinny, but has a nice frame. And he can both shoot and dribble the ball. He's also a Stanford boy so you know he's got basketball knowledge...not just talent

I'd take Emeka just to retain McGrady if I was Orlando. If they take Dwight, things could turn out fine but taking Emeka would be safer.

I don't think that Dwight will develop well in Orlando because they don't have a veteran post player to learn from. If he were to somehow go to Houston so he could be around those big guys...plus get coaching from Patrick Ewing...then he could be like the next Garnett in a couple of years.

Other college players projected to be lottery picks include:
Devin Harris (Wisconsin Jr)
Andre Iguodala (AZ So)
Rafael Araujo (Brigham Young Sr)
Gordon should go 4 or 5 while Luke should go late 1st round (GO OREGON! Sorry, big fan)
BTW: I don't think the Wake Forest guy is entering.
