Hmmm. Guards, guards everywhere, and only two centers in sight.

Do you think Presti is looking for someone on the perimeter?

(MM, I wouldn’t read too much into these early scheduled prospects. Almost all of the players the Thunder have brought in or will bring in this weekend are second round to undrafted guys. Most of the top tier players aren’t scheduling workouts until after the lottery determines which team is picking in what slots. And besides, this draft looks to be pretty thin on frontcourt players. -DM-)

I agree, this is a weak draft for bigmen. Do think there might a possiblity of trading down for a handful of second rounders (since we are looking at so many) or is this the usual standard.

Oh yeah, I noticed the haircut. What is happening. Iverson, Sefalosha, now you?

(Dai, I have learned to expect anything from Presti. But I don’t think he’ll trade down from the 25th selection for a second rounder. Although I have heard that a low first round pick in this year’s draft is of similar talent level to high-to-mid second rounders. So it’s possible, especially if Presti wants to be a little more cautious and avoid adding second guaranteed rookie deal…..And don’t forget about Melo on the cut. :) -DM-)

Oh, I’m not talking about these being first- or even second-round guys. Still, you have to admit the workouts thus far have been guard-heavy.

Thank you for another informative blog. Where else may I get that kind of info written in such an ideal manner? I’ve a undertaking that I’m simply now working on, and I have been on the look out for such information.
