2006 vs 2009 drafts
I believe that this draft is gonna be filled with trades. Cavs probably might do a trade just keep King James in Cleveland, speaking of a trade, word is going around that interest in a Shaq trade is around. Plus, Minnesota might be active on draft day due to how much picks they have just in the first round. Some might trade up just to get Rubio and there is some talk going around that the Clippers are shopping some of their players such as Randolph and maybe Camby, they got too much talented bigs in their lineup [Kaman, Camby, Randolph] when they grab Griffin. However, I believe they might want to get rid of Randolph along with his expensive contract with a few years left. Plus, Detroit has some good cap space with Iverson and Sheed coming off their books. So, I believe that there's a good chance of pulling off some trades on draft day and there's a bunch of intriguing prospects in this draft pool.
I was thinking about how low my expectations are about this draft and it got me thinking about the last poor/shallow draft. There are some diamonds that came out of that draft
(off the top of my head rondo, aldridge, gay, roy). The 2006 draft had a lot of intrigue also, due to the fact everyone wanted to get something for their picks and not take a chance. Does anyone think that this years draft can push out that level of quality (or more) or at least have some excitement from trades?
