Splitter is 6'11 and 3/4 in shoes.

Petro would be lucky to be 6-10 220-230

where do you get the information about Petro's height? On the official euro profile--the same as splitter's it says he is
212cm
while splitter is at
211cm
vazquez at
209cm
Marytnas A @ 217cm

who the f knows? i know we need a big man and I will say pretty firmly that i think vazquez , to me, can be ruled out. He's probably the best player of the 4 right now or atleast tied with splitter, but splitter imho, from reading, has a better and bigger frame+ he is 2 years younger. i cannot say definitively anything about the difference between petro+splitter because I have not seen them in anything but a clip. Brazillians tend to be tough hustle guys. if we can swap positons with Denver on their 2nd 1 for cash, take Mccants who hould be there and---

pick 8 Splitter Taft or Frye
pick 23 McCants

pick 53 Akindale

there is also some unkown with Butler--like what the heck is he? is he going to be on this team he looked pretty good when he got in there, why wasnt he afforded more time? If he is good, we could probably leave the pick at 30 and take a Gilchrist or Robinson to go with MCcants

i see almost no F way that we can get up to get Green, the only plausible scenario is through Utah, and we would have to outbid atleast 2 teasm with better picks.

scks so bad being behind Toronto because they will have the first pick on a big and leverage on us for green.

i dont know why i even care about this anyway, because everyone here knows this pick will be packaged with Tim thomas for a Mike Finley, perhaps or an al harrington, something that will make us breakout the barf bags. I have time to preape for it this year, i know its going to happen. the odds of us making three picks and implementing them are as good as 0. even if we watch what Chicago did in the last 2 years, we have so much money invested and they would need to hire a develomental coach instead of a name brand.

who knows, atleast uconn will be good:>) God they are my saving grace as a met jet knick fan

You have Taft as a lotto pick?

of course, how could we not? hes the biggest and strongest out of anyone mentioned. maybe petro is 7-0 but he is no 260. Taft is a solid 260, will likely measure in close to 6-11 and hes the youngest guy, hes played well against guys like Okafor etc..of course he is a very serious candidate.

I meant to say Frye, not taft. Of course Taft is. And I thought I already typed this message and sent it in too. Do I need to see a psychologist?
