1. Giannis Adetokoubo

2. Victor Oladipo

3. Michael Carter

4. Nerlens Noel

5. Ben Mclemore

2012

1. Anthony Davis

2. Andre Drummond

3. Damian Lillard

4. Bradley Beal

5. Harrison Barnes

2011

1. Kyrie Irving

2. Klay Thompson

3. Kawhi Leonard

4. Kemba Walker

5. Jonas Valenciunas

2010

1. Paul George

2. John Wall

5. Greg Monroe/Gordon Heyward

2009

1. Blake Griffin

2. Stephen Curry

3. James Harden

4. Demar Derozan

5. Ricky Rubio/Jrue Holiday

Probably missed some good ones some might be out of order but this was off the top of my head. Feel free to add your own and debate

I know the greek freak has outrageous talent but no way I would take him no 1 in 2013. He is still pretty much all hype and potential. I feel like Dipo, would get the nod here. He shows a lot of things to like and is the much safer bet. I just feel Greek freak has become VERY overrated on here.

You’re picking two players with one pick? If you’re going to re-rank players, “ties” seem like kind of a cop out.

 Mentions unknowns as reason not to post about 2014, proceeds to put Greak Freak at top of 2013 draft…

 Not sure how you put  mclemore in the top 5 ahead of bigs like plumlee, Adams and dieng.  All showed much more promise last year then he did.

My redraft

2009

1.) Clippers – Blake Griffin – An absolute force! Premier Athlete. . . Face of the Franchise

2.) Memphis – James Harden – Crafty off guard with aggressiveness, shooting touch and the ability to make plays for others

3.) Thunder – Stephen Curry – Allows for the Thunder’s backourt to be the most interchangeable in the league. His uncanny shooting ability proves piviotl to the Thunder’s development

4.) Kings – DeMar DeRozan – ATHLETE that would be allowed to find his game in Sactown! Potential Lock Down Defender with Big Upside.

5.) Timberwolves – Jrue Holiday – Steady combo guard the provides defense and potential

2010

1.)Wizards – John Wall – Wonder Wizkid. . . Become the franchise with a face and more importantly hope.

2.) 76ers – DeMarcus Cousins – Iggy, Lou Williams, Elton Brand and Thaddeus needed a presence in the middle

3.) Nets – Paul George – Gives D-Will a running mate. Potentially T-Mac Smooth Athletic has the game but perceived to be Raw!

4.) Timberwolves – Derrick Favors – Great Counterpart to Kevin Loves Skillset at the Time. Makes up for Kevin Loves lack of athleticism

5.) Kings – Greg Monroe – Go big!!!

2011

1.) Cavs – Kyrie Irving – Stellar 11 games. You need a Quarterback of your offense and some direction since Lebron bounced for greener pastures.

2.) Wolves – Kawhi Leonard –  In need of a runningmate for Kevin Love, Jrue Holiday and Derrick Favors. Wing Defender for the Durants and Rudy Gays of the West.

3.) Jazz – Klay Thompson – 3 and D pick to mesh with Gordon Hayward.

4.) Cavs – Jonas Valanciunas – They got their prized Point Guard of the Future now they sure up the Middle for years to come.

5.) Raptors – Kenneth Faried Upgrade for Amir Johnson. Relentless Rebounder.

2012

1.) Hornets/Pelicans – Anthony Davis – i personally was torn between the potnetial of Drummond Davis however is a "CAN’T MISS!"

2.) Bobcats/Hornets – Andre Drummond The second Most Potential of any player available

3.) Wizards – Bradley Beal – RayAllen to John Wall’s Gary Payton Potential

4.) Cavs – Harrison Barnes – The cavs are doing a great job of filling out their roster with young talent.

5.) Kings – Damian Liilard – "The Solution" Most Seasoned NBA player. Killed his Kings workout

2013

1.) Cavs – Nerlens Noel – Rim protector at the power forward position next to the Center of the Future Jonas

2.) Magic – Victor Oladipo – The Rock of This Draft

3.) Wizards – Giannis Antetokoumpo – Just close your eyes and imagine how ridiculous this team would be be

4.) Bobcats/Hornets – Anthony Bennett Stretch four to fit next to Andre Drummond

5.) Suns – Steven Adams – Potential Pick

 A little surprised there isnt more love for Ty Lawson in 09′.  I’ll admit I’m biased being a Denver fan, but I feel he belongs in the conversation.  Is Ricky Rubio really a better player?  Or even Derozan n Jrue for that matter.  Lawson has very few weaknesses in his game as a point gaurd.  I think he is due for an all-star season.  It would have happened last season in my opinion, but Brian Shaw’s first season in Denver was rocky for everyone involved.  Next year cannot possibly be as bad.

[ncballer]

 If he was in the East he would have had a lot of All-Star appearences.  I am slightly biased as well since my life is in-debted to him after his 09 college season, but I will assert that he is the most underrated player in the NBA.  

He was number 3 in the NBA in assists and look at who he was passing to.

He got overshadowed by Curry’s performance in their head to head in the playoffs two years ago, but people forget that Lawson could not be stopped in those games either.  He kept up with Curry.

Agreed, I would say his ability as a "pure" point gaurd is his most underrated attribute.  Have you seen the Slam magazine top 50 list?  Ty is number 42…
