We got bailed out of not tanking enough last year. This year the difference between 5th and 7th in the draft is the difference between Enes Kantner (who looks killer) and a tall skinny Lithuanian project. How bleak would this year be if instead of Monroe we had Udoh averaging 7/4 in 28 minutes per and making Chris Wilcox look like David Robinson.   Remember that Monroe only fell to the Pistons this year because Golden St is Golden St and picked Ekpe Udoh, despite his being a far inferior prospect.
