Good to see Curry dropping to 14. That's about where he belongs. He's the second coming of Damon Jones.

Thanks Jed. I made the correction on Dasic. I forgot to take his name out of the 36 spot after an NBA source told me I needed to move him up.

I'd like to see Austin Daye go to the Lakers, and I think for Stephen Curry to succeed he needs to go to the Knicks. I noticed to that you have Vladimir Dasic drafted twice with pick 26 and 37. Draft night should be very interesting, I anticipate many trades.
