Here's my predictions:

1. Lebron James
2. Darko Milicic
3. Carmelo Anthony
5-56. Other players.

Now, I'm going out on a limb here, but i really think that's the way it's going down. I guess we'll know in a half an hour if I'm right.

 

[Nocturnal]

Is Lebron James that good? Getting drafted out of hs? That's amazing.

 

[Aceshigh]

Bah, it sucks to have missed the playoffs and yet not have a first round pick. At least we got Steve Francis out of it.

I hope the Rocket's can get someone decent with their 2nd rounder (44th overall). It would be cool if Luke Walton or that 7'6 Serbian guy dropped that far.

That Serbian guy dropped out of the draft.

I'm going out on a limb too, and saying that your #1-#3 are correct, but that 4-56 will be other poeple, not 5-56, unless #4 has no name.

A.I. went to georgetown.

Lebron better be good. When you got so much hype and so much expected of you with all the money invested in you, you better be good!

I'm interested in seeing what the Raptors do. That's my team and i sure hope they don't take that short 5'11 guy. The GM seems interested in him instead of Chris Bosh. Right now the Raptors are in need of a center and backup PG, so they might go for what they need instead of the best player.

 

[Francodman]

wow the raptors didn't trade their pick.. here comes all the uncertainty

 

[jagr10]

Woohoooo, Raptors take Chris Bosh. The next Garnett!!!!

 

[jagr10]

Dwayne Wade taken by Miami. Cool

I think they should have traded for more picks to fill more spots, but if you have to pick #4, Bosh should be a great pick. Who will Miami take?

hahah, you're right

damn all this time i thought he came straight out of high school LOL!

 

[jagr10]

Clippers take Chris Kaman! Oh man, that'll piss off the Knicks!

 

[Dragnov]

Bulls are probably going to take T.J. Ford.

Very lucky.
