<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>NBA Market Watch: Washington Wizards by: Eric WeissMay 25, 2007Washington had an extremely disappointing close to their season after starting off the year playing some of the best basketball in franchise history. The triumvirate of Gilbert Arenas, Antawn Jamison, and Caron Butler successfully carried a heavy load for much of the season. But injuries to Arenas and Butler essentially ended the Wizard?s season before they could show their muscle in the playoffs.The Wizards are at an interesting crossroads team-wise. The club is very competitive with the trio of scorers they?ve got, but their offense is still primarily perimeter oriented and they?ve been cut down in the playoffs each of the past three years by more defensively disciplined teams who have superior interior play.With the contracts of Antawn Jamison and Gilbert Arenas possibly coming up for review, it is important for Washington to take advantage of this season?s draft pick to acquire someone who can bring talent upgrade to the frontcourt.</div> http://www.draftexpress.com/blogs.php?blogid=12Interesting read. The only two things that I disagree with is that he thinks Josh McRoberts is a good fit for us, and he rates Donell Taylor over Andray Blatche.
I think Josh McRoberts is a good fit. He's 6'11", pretty quick and athletic, he won't slow your offense down and is a good passer. And with your pick, he's not that big of a risk.
