This goes as a reminder for Knicks fans to tune in to the lottery tonight 8:30, ESPN. The Knicks have only a 3.6% chance of acvancing to the top three this year. ***Something to keep in mind: Los Angeles and New York were both very disappointing this year, NBA products have dropped 30% from 2003....cross your fingers for conspiracy in favor of New York!
If the Knicks end up getting the #3 pick, what would you do? Would you draft Chris Paul (or Deron Williams) and then trade Stephon Marbury, or would you trade the pick down to get a Center or Power Forward and keep Stephon Marbury? I'd personally do the latter.
If I had the top pick in the draft, I would do all in my power to acquire Andrew Bogut. If I can?t get him, I would just take Marvin Williams. For some reason, Marvin reminds me of Tim Thomas. The inside-out game is why and let?s all face it, Tim Thomas had all the potential in the world to be an all-star and All NBA Teamer. Now with a less lazy and less problematic Marvin Williams, the Knicks can solidify their power forward and small forward position for the time being.

And Milwaukee comes away with the #1 pick! Damn it! Three more losses and we could've been around there. Damn, that really does stink. I feel so sorry for David Stern, and so happy for gmanspack.
