General Itals Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Took this from ESPN Insider. Some big names in this group. Who would you take? I'd think about taking Dixon, Gaines, Jones, Kittles, Rose, Walker, Grant, Fizer and Patterson. Guards: Chucky Atkins, Boston Celtics Juan Dixon, Washington Wizards Derek Fisher, Los Angeles Lakers Reece Gaines, Orlando Magic Anfernee Hardaway, New York Knicks Allan Houston, New York Knicks Eddie Jones, Miami Heat Kerry Kittles, New Jersey Nets Aaron McKie, Philadelphia 76ers Moochie Norris, New York Knicks Eric Piatkowski, Houston Rockets Jalen Rose, Toronto Raptors Jerry Stackhouse, Washington Wizards David Wesley, New Orleans Hornets Forwards: Derrick Coleman, Philadelphia 76ers Marcus Fizer, Chicago Bulls Rick Fox, Los Angeles Lakers Brian Grant, Miami Heat Jason Kapono, Cleveland Cavaliers Christian Laettner, Washington Wizards Ruben Patterson, Portland Trail Blazers Aleksandar Pavlovic, Utah Jazz Scottie Pippen, Chicago Bulls Rodney Rogers, New Jersey Nets Malik Rose, San Antonio Spurs Antoine Walker, Dallas Mavericks Gerald Wallace, Sacramento Kings Jerome Williams, Chicago Bulls Centers: Elden Campbell, Detroit Pistons Antonio Davis, Chicago Bulls Jerome James, Seattle SuperSonics Ervin Johnson, Minnesota Timberwolves Zaza Pachulia, Orlando Magic Jahidi White, Phoenix Suns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Goes Frazia Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 there's also some washed up & sh*t names there too. and take it from someone who watched the Sonics suck ass all year....... you do NOT want Jerome James..... frigg'in 7 foot pile of crap with an attitude problem. thumbs_d Then again I hope you do draft him so Seattle can get out from under his contract. Gotta take Stackhouse and/or Walker, IMO. Patterson plays way above the rim & awesome D. Malik Rose would give you a solid defensive force @ the 4..... that boy bangs hard, smash and has spent most of his recent years backing up Duncan (and winning championships). head_ban Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 I'm surprised the T-Wolves didn't dangle Olowokandi out there to try and get rid of his contract. Either they think he can be improved, or they have a trade in the offing. On the other hand, it's a safe bet the Bobcats won't take Johnson.

General Itals Posted June 15, 2004 Author Share Posted June 15, 2004 I'd heard rumors that they were going to. Perhaps the ESPN list is just incomplete. I don't think it is an official list from the NBA, just something that got leaked out. Olowakandi is still young and talented big guys are hard to come by. Maybe the Wolves hope he can shake the injuries and develop like O'Neal and Harrington have. Personally, I think its his heart that's the problem. I've seen the guy play a few minutes of phenomenal basketball and then go on a stink spree the rest of the night. You can't coach heart and it doesn't appear that KG rubbed off on him this year. I think he's a lost cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
