I think Denver will take Foyle.  Then Philly will take Thomas.  Van Horn
will be there at #6 if Thomas and Battie come out.  The question is do we
take him or do we trade that pick.  I think the trade value will be higher
than his value to our team.

Tonight is the big Philly/NJ game.  Dallas also plays Minnesota.  If NJ
wins, philly ain't going to pass Dallas.  If Philly wins and Dallas loses
tonight, philly still has a chance to catch Dallas (most likely only a
tie), but NJ will be in danger of falling back into a tie, or worse with
Dallas.
