If dyess doesn't come back by January, and be the dyess of old, we're heading for another lotto season, period.

Here's the top guys we should keep our eyes on:

1) Dwight Howard 6-10 225 PF Atlanta GA HSSr. - he's this years lebron, so far
2) Andrew Bogut 6-11 225 PF Utah Fr. - this guy could be GOOOOOD, real good - if he's as good as hyped, he could go as high as #2 overall in 2004.
3) Sebastian Telfair 5-11 175 PG Brooklyn NY Lincoln HSSr. - next damon stoudy? If the kid was only 4 inches taller
4) Pavel Podkolzine 7-5 303 C (Russia) 1985 - i'm wary of this one, thyroid disorder
5) Emeka Okafor 6-9 240 PF UConn Jr. - great in college, but rail thin, not an NBA type baller. plus a few inches too small
6) Robert Swift 7-1 245 C Bakersfield, CA HSSr. - interesting young'un

I dont know who you are talking about but Emeka Okafor weighs 255 pounds and is 6-10.

Bogut was the MVP ofthe FIBA 18-19 year olds. Hes going to Utah and is an interesting prospect. He's long skilled and tough and a legit 6-11 235.

Sebastian Telfair--saw him play last year twice. He's not in the same league like Gordon Shannon Brown Felton. Ill give you a PG to watch as well who has a great deal of size and athletiscm is Jarrett jack of G tech --also Romain Sato of Xavier is a very physical 2 guard with nice athletiscm and size

as for C there is a bunch of them

IF we stink thats iF we should go allout to see if we can trade kt for a 2nd 1st round pick.
