    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Let?s begin with the draft.

    Don't expect a rookie to come in and make a big presence next year. The Sixers' first-round pick went to Denver in the 2002 three-way deal that brought Kenny Thomas to town from the Rockets. That pick then was sent to New Jersey and dealt again to the Raptors.

    Cross your fingers for a second round steal at No.45. Billy King can now keep this pick since he acquired the final pick (No. 60) of the second round from the Jazz this week. That pick was immediately given over to Detroit to complete the 1997 deal that sent Jerry Stackhouse and Eric Montross to the Pistons in return for Theo Ratliff and Aaron McKie.

    Who should King target with the No. 45 pick?

    I?d like them to get a rebounding forward who can spell Chris Webber and his aching knees. Backup Marc Jackson needs to be the reserve center on this team. The occasional Jackson and Sammy Dalembert pairing just didn't work last season.

    So who could be available?
    My top choices: Lawrence Roberts, PF, Miss. St, Jason Maxiell, PF Cincinnati, Brandon Bass, PF, LSU, Eric Williams, PF, Wake Forest, Ryan Gomes, PF, Providence, David Lee, SF/PF, Florida, or local product Dwayne Jones, PF, St. Josephs (PA).</div>

    He's not. And Hakim Warrick wouldn't be available at 19, anyway.

    It would be nice to have the 19th pick an 45 we could get two more players who could come in an help us but most of the guys don't think it can or will happen. So all we can do is dream of a 1st round pick or a trade till Bill pulls it off for us.
