Derrick Rose- could easily could play alongside Gilbert and the best player so far.

Sorry for the mistake. I would take Mario Chalmers especially since he fills the need for a backup PG, a good defender, and room to develop more into his 3 point shot.

Re: Re-Doing the 2008 Draft
I'm not taking the time to look at the full list of who's left, but I'll still vote: DeAndre Jordan. He's a center who put up solid numbers, something like 4.5/4.5 with a block and a really high FG% in ~15 MPG as a 20 year old. I admit that I have almost no familiarity with his game, but a big who could give you 10/10/2.5 (assuming there's at least some improvement) in a few years is a decent enough pick at 18th.

Re: Re-Doing the 2008 Draft
JaVale McGee.
I like Batum, like Chalmers. But neither one had players like CP3, Shaq and Dwight Howard name-checking them to say they are gonna be really special in the league. There's a decent PG that slips in every draft, but rare that you get a super-athletic Big. Grunfeld was smarter than me on this one. Per usual.

Re: Re-Doing the 2008 Draft
Funny but last year I said Chalmers was ready to start and would fill a need for the Wizards. I liked that he defended and beat Rose in the NCAAs. McGee turned out to have great potential, but Chalmers had an impactful season on a team that made the playoffs.
Chalmers at PG would have made a huge difference last season for the Wizards.

Bye bye Beal.

It's a hard choice but I'd say maybe Lebron James....
Or Gilbert Arenas......he turned out to be a STEAL in the second round.

I guess since we can't pick Derrick Rose, I'll pick Kevin Love. Ahh screw it, I'd stick with McGee.

Okay I thought it over. I want McGee again, he's gonna be good.
