O.J Mayo is clearly the 3rd best player in this draft. But I dont see Minny drafting another undersized guard (Foye, McCants). Minny is definitely a team I would consider talking to if I'm the Knicks as far as swaping picks.

I dont see the Minn drafting Mayo (for the same reasons you stated)..as a matter of fact, because of the teams in that are drafting in the top 5, I think OJ Mayo is going to drop out of the top 5. He's going to be this years P.Pierce/C.Butler.

Minnesota is drafting B.Lopez.

They have options but if we trade up we will have to give up some value and we really don't have much value.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

Would love to see him drop to us....I think Memphis is the key. Bayless will not get past seattle because they need a pg. It really depends on what Memphis will do.

Minny needs a shooting guard. I think they take Mayo despite his size. Foye isn't undersized at the PG position and Mayo is the scorer they need at the 2 guard.

Lopez is going to Seattle.

I guess they can try to force a square peg into a circular space but Foye is no PG.
