Oleksiy Pecherov! Leon Powe is a good one too -- taken 1 pick after... Vladimir Vereemenko! :) Yup, Rondo is a good one — taken 3 picks after… Oleksiy Pecherov!

Is it fair that only 1.5 out of 8 are at "home"? Knowing pre-season games matter little from a statistics point of view but matter a great deal when a team is coming off a disasterous 19-win season with major parts supposedly all shined up and ready to go, how can this schedule be fair? Anyways, Leon Powe is now a Cavalier. It has been confirmed but just not nationally reported by ESPN yet. And in regards to fearing Boston - there is only one person you need to cut off for them to fail and that player is Rajon Rondo. Rondo makes them tick now and he's the key. When Rondo gets like 9 turnovers in three quarters of play, the Celtics don't win unless Ray Allen makes 14 threes.
