    Since Charlotte picks in front of us let's hope that Jordan continues his hot streak of draft picks.

    He's had such winning picks as Kwame Brown (#1 2001), Jared Jeffries (#11 2002), Juan Dixon (#17 2002), and Adam Morrison (#3 2006).

    Who will he take at #9??

    I'd be happy if they took him or DeAndre Jordan. I could see them taking Randolph.

    check out their web site for quotes by larry brown after each workout.

    such as:

    (On Anthony Randolph)
    I can see why he’s projected to go pretty high on the draft. He’s real coachable. He’s highly skilled. I don’t think he’ll be 19 until January. He can handle the ball. He’s athletic. I know he’s left handed and right away you think of Chris Bosh. I remember when Chris was young and physically, they are very similar at this stage. I can see why people are very high on him. He’s got to fill out a little to work on his inside game. He’s just really skilled. He’s a great kid. He’s got a chance to pretty special.

    (On Darrell Arthur)
    He went to Kansas, so he has good bloodlines there. He went to the right school. He’s a great kid. He’s young as well. He’s got a terrific future. He’s come from a phenomenal program with a great coach. When you win a national championship and you’re a big part of that, obviously you have a chance to be successful in our league.

    (On how important it is to get another big man)
    I don’t know. We just have to get talent in here. If Sean May’s healthy, that’s talent. But the more young big kids you can get with the chance to get better, the luckier you are. Then it’s our job to coach them up. These big kids we’ve had in, not only today, but last week, there are a lot of them that have a huge upside. The more big young kids you can get the more successful you can be. Look at what (Kendrick) Perkins and the affect he had on Boston. It didn’t happen overnight for him. Length and athleticism is something that’s really important. The kids we’ve seen have all had that.

    He'll probably reach and take Lawson.

    That would be an impressive pick, considering Lawson pulled out about a week ago.
