nicely done Adam. Good insight, as good as any of the ESPN stuff shirts. Let me just say Portland is completely dominating the draft. They could be a contender this next season, which starts next week by my calculations.
Round 2 STEAL is the Dorsey kid from Memphis. A little lazy at the collegiate level, but a freakin' brick house, NBA-type PF (unlike the OVERRATED Kevin Love). Dorsey will grab boards and won't get physically dominated by anyone.

Outstanding Effort Adam. I still am trying to digest all of it, especially the Mayo trade to Memphis. I told you how much I liked Kevin Love.

Kevin Love will get tossed around by real men at PF in the NBA. Is he talented? Unquestionably, yes. But I think it will be a couple years and some off-season weight room workouts before he's NBA ready.

I like Dorsey, but I think he's got a low ceiling offensively.  If he becomes a Ben Wallace type that'd be pretty good.  Mario Chalmers was an absolute theft for Miami, he may get major minutes.

I can't rationally speak in-depth on the Mayo trade; suffice it to say that Minnesota came out on the good end.  Love and Mike Miller may give them the opportunity to run a lot more, which could be a nice change of philosophy for them.
