RE: bewildered



I think that Raef must be left unprotected.  It's a tough call on
Chucky/Banks.  I'm not sure Danny will want to leave his #1 pick
available to be plucked, especially after having said that it takes
point guards a few years to blossom.

On the list below, I would insert Blount as a keeper and remove Raef.

Cecil

Protect Atkins. Would anyone really want Raef's contract, especially
coming off an injury?

Keepers

Pierce
Hunter
Davis
Welsch
Perkins
Atkins
Mihm
Lafrentz


Bubble boys

Blount
Banks



A real sleeper could be a kid named Adrian Walton. Plays for a friend
and is pretty impressive at a JC. He used to play at Fordham and put up
some decent numbers but had some scholastic issues.  A NY schoolyard
legend. Good size and great ball handling ability

I'm all in favor of these guys winning all they can.  Our schedule will
dictate the outcome; I sorta doubt, really, that our chemistry will
hold. Still, whatever pick we end up with, we'll have to draft wisely.
I'm more concerned with the eight players we freeze from the expansion
draft.  It comes down to either Mihm or Blount, as I see it.  And Adkins
is left out. What a terrible scenario for a team beginning to play real
basketball!  Quel dilemma!

Do we leave Raef out and protect Chucky?  (Once we find a decent,
journeyman PG, we have to let him go?)  Do we chance losing Mihm by
keeping Blount, whom some will think we should re-sign now?  And if we
sign and trade Blount
(as someone suggested) will it be for someone we will have to protect?
It
looks like only Jones and McCarty are sure cast-offs.  Would we chance
leaving Perkins out there?  Somebody help me!  Cheers, Gene Yahoo!
