#13 - I believe Portland will ship this pick out for some veteran players and a couple of second round picks... I wouldn't be surprised if Seattle nabs DJ Augustine here if he slips.

#20 - Denver will draft a European player here and develop him overseas for a couple of years. It is the best decision since they are paying Kenyon Martin, Carmelo Anthony, Allen Iverson, Marcus Camby, and Nene almost 10+ Million.

#24 - If Seattle makes a move for Augustine they could ship this pick to Portland... A mature Jason Thompson could be selected here for Portland... If not I believe Seattle could draft Tywon Lawson, Brandon Rush or Robin Lopez here.

Don't like the OJ Mayo pick for the Grizz. They need a C or PF much much more.

Same here but he does have them taking Hendrix later on. I think the Knicks would take Mayo first anyway though.

Orlando won't draft a SG, they need a PF badly. Battie CAN'T be the starter...

and with Scola and Landry doing so well at PF, not to mention last year's starter Chuck Hayes, Houston will be looking at C or SF

Haha good luck with that! The Heat are having a party for the draft lottery at our Arena. If the Heat don't get a top 2 pick I will pick up the chair I'm sitting on, rip it off it's screws, and launch it in the middle of the court!

Anyways, you can't go wrong with either Beasly or Rose for us. Right now, yes I would much rather have Rose for the team, but, who knows what could happen between now and the draft.

I'm excited to. I don't think the Knicks will go that high, but ya never know. Hopefully Brandon Roy makes the Blazers get a high pick again. :D I also see Memphis getting 4 or 5.

I also hope Miami gets screwed for purposely tanking. (No offense AFF)

I hope we get the #1 or #2 pick just so I can come in here and laugh in everyone's faces. Then when we don't I just won't come here :D

But the thing is, even if they do get the #1 or #2, I won't care. I would just rather having them get a lower pick.

Hater! I hope your favorite team (what is it again?) somehow get the #14 pick :p

Anyways, the fact that the Heat have only what, a 26% chance at getting the #1 pick is BS. That's a lot worse than the a coinflip's chance, and even though that could go either way I'd rather have that. The NBA Draft Lottery is just a messed up system.

Umm doing it by record? Same as the NFL and MLB do it. If not, let the teams with the 5 worst records have a chance to change positions within the top 5 and the teams with the 6th-10th worse records have a lottery, and same for 11th-14th. Something like that.

IMO, out of all the teams, I think the Knicks deserve a top 2 pick more then anyone else.

Im not just saying that b/c Im a fan, but when you look at all the other teamswho have a realistic chance of getting the number one pick, the Knicks are the only team w/o a young future superstar.

Miami has D-Wade
Seattle has Durant
Minnesotta has Al Jefferson
Memphis has Rudy Gay
Milwaukee has Yi
LAC has Kaman and Thornton
Charlotte has Gerald Wallace
Chicago has hella young talent
New Jersey has Devin Harris

Who do we have as our future? Curry? Nate? Lee? All these guys are good but they dont have the upside alot of the other guys have.

Stern grew up a Knicks fan, much like the 1985 lottery, the league will find a way to get us a top 2 pick. lol

But thats not a good way. Cause teams that tank (Miami) would get rewarded for tanking. And that just shouldn't be. The 2nd idea might not be so bad.

Eh...not sure you can call Yi an upcoming superstar. But they do have MoWill and Redd.

I'd say the Knicks have Crawford :D
