Dickie V Has an Opinion

ESPN.com - Dick Vitale - Bulls, Blazers among draft winners:

• Orlando made a great move picking J.J. Redick at No. 11. In my 28 years at ESPN, I have not seen a kid take more abuse on the road than Redick. Opposing college coaches designed defenses to stop him and now he will go to a situation where he won't be double and triple-teamed. Jameer Nelson and Dwight Howard have to be very happy with this selection.

• Foye, Roy and Morrison were the players I consider most ready to contribute right away, followed by Redick.

Time to give some grades out …

A: Chicago, Portland, New Jersey, Memphis, Utah, Charlotte.

A-: Orlando, Minnesota.

    Wow... high praise from Dickie V.!

    Can't wait to watch the Magic and Bulls play each other this upcoming season... they both are very similar teams with all the outstanding young talent and deep benches. However, the Bulls have no one like Dwight Howard!
