Despite having only like an 8% chance to win the lottery, the Toronto Raptors will have the #1 pick in this year's NBA Draft. The Bulls, who got this pick from the New York Knicks, will pick 2nd, followed by the Charlotte Bobcats. The Portland Jailblazers, who had the best chance for the #1 pick, will pick 4th.
You can check out Critical Fanatic for some of his early suggestions for picks, as that is a good read, and he is very high on Brandon Roy. Myself, I do like Roy, but he's outside my top 3. As of now, I like Tyrus Thomas, Marcus Williams, and Andrea Bargnani as my top 3 players in this draft.
If I had to make a guess right now, I think Toronto will go with (presuming they don't trade the pick) LaMarcus Aldridge from Texas. They need a center, and he most fits the Center mold at the top of the draft. However, new GM Bryan Colangelo did do things differently (and very effectively) in Phoenix, so it's impossible to tell anything at this point.
But either way, you can expect a good portion of NBA Draft coverage from me as we get closer and closer to the NBA Draft!
