-Yea, that trade is bizarre, and stretches my knowledge of contracts/amnesty clauses and all that confusing money stuff. Suffice it to say they unloaded Lewis which is fine, but Okafor/Ariza?
-Kidd-Gilchrist goes very early, and i think its funny that the Cavs and Wiz are in the toughest spots at 3 and 4, two teams with a ton of work to do and all eyes on them. If Robinson goes #2, it will be interesting to see if they both pass on Barnes and go for M. K-G and Beal. Barnes has that buzz about him as a guy who could fall a few picks, and years from now we look back on it like "how the heck did he go so late?" But also he looked so stiff in his freshman year there are still big question marks around him.
-Dray will probably go in the 1st round, because of the classic siutation of "complete" teams drafting late who dont need project players, and want "winners" who are ready to play now off the bench, and not future starters who need a lot of work. Kind of a Dejuan Blair pick? (although he did fall to the 2nd round)
