<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The draft is only three days away. Lists have been drawn up, checked and re-checked. Everyone should know whom they like, don't like, want, don't want. It should all be coming clear. "Now is a murky time," said Nets GM Kiki Vandeweghe. Yup, clear as the East River. "People are still jockeying for position," said Vandeweghe after the Nets New Jersey Nets staged their last scheduled workout session yesterday with a group that included Western Kentucky shooting guard Courtney Lee, Australian center Nathan Jawai and New Mexico shooting guard J.R. Giddens. "There are a lot of false rumors out there," Vandeweghe continued, explaining the present murkiness. "Agents are trying to get their players up in the draft. And at the draft there's always surprises. There's always a bunch of guys who fall or jump up. To me that's the exciting part - did you guess right?" The Nets are guessing about the other guys, trying to plot their lot at 10. The consensus pick has them taking 6-foot-9 Italian SF Danilo Gallinari if he's there. There also is support for either of two guards, Indiana shooter deluxe Eric Gordon or UCLA point Russell Westbrook, but both are expected to be gone. They also would drool if UCLA PF Kevin Love lasted to them, but they don't see that scenario. There also is hope Stanford center Brook Lopez makes it through nine picks, which could happen if someone grabs Gallinari. There is always the chance of a trade, but Vandeweghe said the Nets are apt to keep their picks: 10, 21 (from Dallas) and 40 in the second round. "The few days before the draft there's typically a lot of activity as far as calls go, and you end up with a pretty good idea of who's going where," said Vandeweghe. "We like our picks."</div> New York Post
