    JRich for Wright (#8)</p>

    AWESOME move for Charlotte</p>

    I'm not sure how Wright fit in anyhow.</p>

    Put JRich next to Wallace and they're going to be TOUGH! And getting JRich might be the incentive Wallace needs to re-sign.</p>

    Fazekas will be a success in the league. If Sean Bradley could play a long time, this guy will do fine.

    But what I don't get is how badly Dallas needs scoring in the paint - but they take a 7footer who shoots three's - might aswell have resigned Van Horn</p>

    </p>

    How is Fazekas defense?</p>

    <h2>76ers take G Koponen with 30th and final pick in first round</h2> Thursday, June 28, 2007 10:57 PM
    NEW YORK (Ticker) - The Philadelphia 76ers selected Petteri Koponen with the 30th and final pick in the first round of Thursday's NBA draft. It was their third selection in the first round.

    The 76ers took promising young forward Thaddeus Young with the 12th pick and, with the 21st, selected guard Daequan Cook. </p>

    Philadelphia then traded Cook to the Miami Heat for its the 20th selection, Colorado State center Jason Smith. The Sixers also sent a second-pick in 2009 and cash to the Heat. </p>

    Philadelphia and Miami swapped the rights to its respective picks with the Miami Heat getting Colorado State forward Jason Smith. </p>

    Koponen impressed NBA scouts when he seamlessly led the group of young international stars at the Nike Hoop Summit. He got the team into its offense, made sure players were in the right spots and made simple passes without turning the ball over. </p>

    Koponen is young and he hasn't yet played against the top-level competition in Europe. He has shown poise handling the ball against his peers (college-age players), but he has yet to play against NBA point guards who will test him at every turn. </p>

    McRoberts is a score for them</p>
