Dave Babcock on pick #6

J/S has an audio interview with Bucks Director of Player Personnel Dave Babcock. He says that he sees Brandon Wright as the 3rd best player in the draft. When asked about Yi, he compared him to Tony Kukoc, and expected him to go anywhere from 3-8. He doubted, however, that he would last to 6. He also included Noah in the group with Horford and Wright. Not one mention of Conley. (I don't know who the interviewer is, but he sure does like to repeat what Babcock says. It'll drive you crazy now that you're listening for it.)

Speaking of crazy, it's insane how much variation there is between projections on the top 10 picks. It's impossible to get any real idea of who might be there at 6 at this time. I guess it's fun, but I'd be happier if the Bucks were back at 3 and could make the decision themselves instead of having it forced upon them.
