    One of the following will slip to 7:

    LeMarcus Aldridge
    Andrea Bargnani
    Rudy Gay
    Adam Morrison
    Brandon Roy
    Tyrus Thomas


    Because Shelden Williams has supposedly has a promise by the Hawks at 5. The Celtics will be sitting in a great situation to make a deal out of the 7 spot, if they want.

    I think Bargnani ultimately ends up in Toronto. I think Chicago goes with Thomas. Charlotte is gay for Gay. Morrison potentially could end up in Portland. Or Aldridge.

    Roy, Morrison, or Aldridge could be available potentially, at 7.

    If the Raps don't draft Bargnani he could easily fall to the 5-7 range. I don't believe those Shelden Williams promise rumours at all. Frankly, out of all those players, I see Tyrus Thomas as the most likely to slip. However, I still believe they will make up the top 6.

    Celtics will most likely get rid of the 7th pick and give it to Portland for Telfair. I think then Portland will end up taking Aldridge.

    I hope it's not Aldridge, I want the Bulls to select him.. But, I don't have a strong feeling they will, hopefully I'm wrong. But, the Raptors always say Bargnani and never mention Aldridge, I have a feeling they will select him instead of Bargnani. Might be a smokescreen.

    I think it's between Roy and Gay slipping to #7. Outside chance of Tyrus Thomas as well because he didn't workout for a few teams selecting in the Top 10.

    If Charlotte doesn't take Gay, he could slip quite a few spots. Roy seems to have a lot more takers, but teams usually go for size when it comes down to it on draft day.

    good call, if mchale wasnt so wierd, both of these guys would have slipped to seven technically, but roy went to the number seven team, so i guess he did slip
