    No Wesley Matthews? Or are you only ranking those who are chosen in the 1st round?

     Eyenga has been playing well lately, well enough to be ranked higher than James Johnson (who’s stuck in the D-League) and Earl Clark. Also I think Maybor is a bit low.

    I get your point but when you have players like Blair and Matthews who are 2nd rounders but better than most of the 1st rounders it seems pointless to only rank them. Why not just rank the entire 60 or a top 30 of the 09 draft?

    Good list, I like it when people take the time to put together a huge list and I’m not trying to rip it apart or anything, but I just had some input and a few questions.

    I’d rank Terrance Williams (D-League Oscar Robertson) lower, he had a pretty solid year last year, but his sophomore year has certainly set him back as far as effectiveness, IMO

    Austin Daye is averaging 7.2 ppg and shooting 42% from 3 point range.

    Beabouis hasn’t played at all this year.  I don’t think 7 ppg as a rookie and 0 games played as a sophomore is good enough to rank him 12.

     Earl Clark has been averaging 10 ppg and 5 rpg over his last 5 games while James Johnson has been getting mostly DNP – Coaches Decision all year.  Clark is finally starting to show some of the potential that caused him to be taken #14.

    Williams had a horrible year last year  Joe Wolf, a last place record in this league and the way that they got it tends to tarnish your reputation. Taj Gibson needs alot more respect and Jonny Flynn needs to fall off big time

    Nice to see DeMar Derozan shooting up that board! I guess this is the rare case of potential plus athletisism actaully developing well. Good pick at 9.

    Hansbourgh is way to high, Daye is playing better Maynor is also better. Earl Clarke is better now with the magic. Henderson needs to be at the bottom he makes little to no impact.
