So my first thought already happened, Receiving Shaq, for Ben Wallace, Sasha Pavs, 2010 second rounder and $500,000.

The Shaq trade benefits use and gives us that tall defender we could really use against D12, Bynum, Gasol and other big centers that play physical.

The draft disappointed me in a way, but also didn't surprise me in others. When we were on the clock at pick No. 30, we drafted a undrafted player from overseas.

I knew the selection was made to save money however we need guys who can come in and play now. Left on the board were Blair and Youngboth guys could of came in and play now and help us win the title.

Our second time on the clock was for pick No. 46. We selected Danny Green from UNC. I was happy with this pick because we have a scorer and a lengthy defender in Danny Green.

However I was more determined to select a point guard, solving our issues at the backup point guard spot with Patrick Mills from Saint Mary's, or solve our bench scoring issue with Dionte Christmas from Temple.

Overall I thought we could of done better, but will see how things go on with Danny Green, hopefully he'll pan out to replace Wally and/or Sasha Pavs.
