I think he fully expects to be off the board by #7, so a fall to #11 would hurt him. I dont read that he would be unhappy with the Pacers organization, just unhappy at falling in the draft.

^ He would rather be a Clipper than a Pacer.

I think that anyone who was once considered the best player in the '08 class would be a little disappointed to be drafted lower than expected. Also, not saying that this is the case, but I'm sure a top 5 or 6 pick gets a little more money than someone who fell outside of the top ten. I think that he just wants to go as high as he possibly can.

I don't think it's that he doesn't want to be a Pacer, I think it's just he wants more money and a more prestigious draft spot. Plus, he probably wouldn't even start on this team whereas other teams probably give him a chance right away.
