And IMO, the T-Wolves give KG one last shot at actually having a partner before he has the option to opt out of his contract. The T-Wolves lineup next year goes something along the lines of:

KG, Juwan Howard, Trenton Hassel, Randy Foye, and Ray Allen. The T-Wolves lose a little bit in depth, but that could be potentially dealt with by using the MLE on someone like Williamson or even McDyess if he's available at that level. And KG gets a backcourt with 1 all star and one potentially very good point guard to compliment him, along with some additional experience. It's a gamble, giving up the depth, but if this is my last shot at keeping KG, let's roll the dice.

With the eight pick the Charlotte Bobcats select: Jeff Green (Georgetown) 6-9, 235, F, Junior

With the 9th pick in the 2007 NBA Draft, the Chicago Bulls select Spencer Hawes, PF/C, out of Washington.

The Atlanta Hawks are now on the clock...

with the 11th pick in the 2007 nba draft the milwaukee bucks select

Javaris Crittendon, PG, Georgia Tech

Insurance policy in case mo williams leaves, but more likely able to back up both guard spots assuming Mo is resigned. "We will make every attempt to resign Mo. Javaris doesn't change that." Milwaukee's GM was quoted as saying immediately after making the pick. "This is Michael Redd's team, but now we've have some athletic players who can play off of him. But this is Michael Redd's team." GM Sport1016 was overheard saying.

"He was saying something about it being Michael Redd's team, I think" chirped newest roster member Marvin Williams when learning of the draft day trade. "Has anyone seen my 3pt shot?" he continued.

Mo Williams/Crittendon/Bell
Redd/Simmons/Bell/crittendon

Bucks are poised to return to the playoffs

With the 12th pick of the draft, the 76ers select Julian Wright.

I think that pick should be given to someone else. How long is it going to take for him to make up his mind?

I agree it has been still for the last couple of days now (sence the 21st) give the team to someone else that wants another one or did not get to pick one for a reason or another.

With the 13th pick of the 2007 NBA Draft, the New Orleans Hornets select Nick Young, SG, out of USC.

The Clippers are on the clock...

With the 14th pick the Los Angeles Clippers select Al Thornton, small forward, out of Florida State.

With the 15th pick, the Detroit Pistons select Joakim Noah, PF, out of Florida.

The Wizards are on the clock...

With the 16th pick of the 2007 NBA Draft, the Washington Wizards select Derrick Byars, SG, out of Vanderbilt.

With the 17th pick in the 2007 nba draft, the New Jersey Nets select...Josh McRoberts, f/c, Duke.

Well, at this rate, the real draft will be over before we get done with the 1st round. Why do these group mock drafts rarely work? I don't get why people sign up and then forget about it. This is in no means a shot at anyone in particular, and I understand certain things could have come up in the last week. It has just been my experience that these group mock drafts always take forever b/c people don't ever make their pick.

With the 18th pick in the 2007 NBA draft the Golden State Warriors select, Jason Smith, PF Colorado St.

The Lakers are now on the clock....

We have a trade to announce...

The Los Angeles Lakers send the 19th pick in the draft, Ronny Turiaf, and Vladimir Radmanovich to Detroit for the draft rights to Joakim Noah and Nazr Mohammed.

The Pistons then select Thaddeus Young, SF, Georgia Tech.
