That may explain Thomas' last-second visit to Houston on Friday; a source indicates that the Rockets have explored moving up to as high as five by trading forward Juwan Howard and the eighth pick to Atlanta for the fifth pick, which would be a logical spot for Thomas to be selected if he isn't taken second.At six, Minnesota needs point guard help, and the Wolves could do much worse than Marcus Williams, who is inconsistent but is quicker than anybody in the draft with the basketball. The Celtics pick next, and given that Timberwolves GM Kevin McHale and Celtics GM Danny Ainge are old teammates that have already done deals with one another, it wouldn't be a surprise to see some kind of swap on draft day.The Rockets, picking eighth, are desperate for perimeter shooting help, and they may have also hedged their bets on Redick by bringing in Roy for one more look yesterday. Houston is also believed to have interest in Brewer.The Warriors, picking ninth, may have interest in O'Bryant - generally considered the best pivotman in the draft - whose outstanding NCAA tournament has helped push him into the top half of the first round. Golden State also will have Brewer and Sefolosha in for final workouts before Wednesday.</div>PLEASE LET THIS ONE HAPPEN! I don't want Head to go.
Hmm.. interesting because if this is true, then this could link to the #7 pick (Celtics) to Chicago for Duhon and #16. The article to that said they could be able to maybe draft Thomas there. Maybe Chicago's plan is to get Aldridge at 2 then Thomas at 7. Who knows man! I love this time of year lol. 1 more day and 16 more hours, then we will know all the truth to all these rumors. I have seen 3 Bulls rumors, 3 Celtics rumors, 2 Raptors rumors, and a Wolves rumor within the last 2 days. Oh, plus the Houston/Atlanta rumor. Too much to handle lol. CAN'T WAIT TIL DRAFT NIGHT!!!
