your thoughts
as a grizzly fan..i feel we need help from pg/pf. i see whiteside is predicted to go 15th now, but if he's available...i wouldn't mind seeing him in a grizz uniform. atheltic, 7 foot, only 235-240, defender... honestly, i think he'll be taken before then.
My team is the Nets & if we can't get Wall hopefully we can luck up on Cousins or Favors because we are in a much need @ the 4 spot
I hope Utah gets a good, defensive-minded player that Jerry Sloan would actually play, and who wouldn't interfere with the amazing chemistry the team is built around.
Aldrich and Aminu come to mind.
Bulls fan, would love to have James Anderson slip to us at 17, I just don't see him falling that far.
As a Wizards fan, I think our biggest need is at SF. Al Thornton is good, but you don't know which Al Thornton you're going to get because he is very inconsistent. So a pick like Wesley Johnson would be perfect for the Wizards.
Twolves: Evan Turner with the 1st or 2nd pick...Knowing our luck we'll get the 5th pick and draft that Europen guy.
Ekpe Udoh or Greg Monroe with the 16th pick...Monroe probably wont be there but I like Udoh alot. I think he'd pair well with Jefferson.
Terrico White with the 24th pick...I think White has alot of talent and could be a steal in this draft. He was a top 10 projection before Chris Warren killed his draft stock. He's a high risk high reward guy to me.
Their bench could use help at every position, but I think the biggest need is a back up big man with length and athleticism. I would hope for Udoh or Sanders, but since they likely will be gone by 19, Alabi could be a good option. Given their needs for a back-up wing who can shoot and a backup pg, I would be fine with any player if they are the best available player. In the 2nd round, any team should take the best player available regardless of position I think.
Cavs, for the love of god give me a center under the age of 30. Keith Benson or Jerome Jordan are realistic option if the cavs were to buy a late pick.
I think Patrick Patterson will be a solid player in the league... not a superstar but a solid player... and another thing... does anyone think that he is very similar to Boozer??? didn't get to watch Buck Williams... but him and boozer seem really similar... size strength athletics with a decent jumper
Denver ends up with another athletic wing maybe Ronnie Brewer and another big hopefully David Lee and send Kenyon Martin to the bench because no one will pick up his contract

I really am hoping for a big. Monroe, or maybe strech for udoh. I really hope for a big athletic big. I dont see Al-Farouq Aminu as a starter on this team ever. we need shooters. and also for a second round pick how bout a Dominique Jones, Lance Stephenson, Crawford, JP prince(I like his defense and shooting and all round game alot) or Sylven Landesberg to develop on the wing for us to run with THE BEST PG IN THE LEAGUE D-Will. But dont draft aldrich he is ostertag 2.0. Ond boy o boy was he a headache.
The Ostertag-Aldrich comparison is absolutely terrible.
They are both white centers with stupid haircuts that attended Kansas. End. Aldrich is more intense, a better rebounder, a better defender, a better passer, a MUCH better athlete, quicker, better conditioned, smarter, and has more offensive skills than Ostertag ever did. Ostertag was taller at 7'2", so he had one advantage.
If you did some scouting instead of drawing conclusions based on SKIN COLOR, you might know that.
Shame on you.










what do you hope your team gets out of this draft?
besides having high hopes to land wall/turner that is....
