Except the draft. KILLS me they have set it back. April gave us a quick and much needed fix. I'm hopeful SB weekend will be my favorite weekend of the year, this year, but typically my favorite weekend is the draft. It can never come soon enough for me.

I hear you. I love Draft Day weekend.
The draft has a lot going for it with the suspense of who we will pick as well as the discussions post draft about the players that were available when we made our picks.
There are some knowledgeable posters here and on other sites that can provide some insight into some of these players.
What I don't think I will ever be able to do is pick the same players the Hawks FO would. Outside of Okung and Thomas the first year, they have surprised me with just about every pick.

There are a lot of underclassmen entering the draft this year.
Check out this list from ESPN as of Jan 9th:
Even drafting late this year we should be in a position to get some good players.
