RE: Shaking The Lottery Tree

[OzerskyJA <OzerskyJA@cmog.org>]

No way do Curry and Chandler go lower than top five; and it's 
equally ridiculous to think that Yao Ming, another "athlete" who 
can barely play, will go ahead of proven studs like Woods and
Haywood, though he well might.  Curry will probably go number
one, I will guess, unless he gets real fat.  I like Murphy a lot, naturally,
and Eddie Griffin best, though we better trade Antoine if we play on
drafting him -- though we have to draft the best player available.
