DJ's 2008 Mock Draft - 28 January 2008

with the way Thabeet is playing, I can definitely see him going top 10.

DeAndre Jordan is plummeting across many a draft board and I would have a hard time taking him ahead of lopez. Thabeet at 14 seems high for a guy who has no real scoring move, but could see it going down that way because Utah has no real need, unless they feel Almond is not gonna work.

Oh look, DeAndre Jordan is no longer the top pick. Who saw that coming? A lot of us, I'm sure.
Solid mock draft. I think most teams would take Beasley with the top pick, regardless of team need. He's that good.

solid effort 
IMO
-Donte is 5-10
- Love and Batum should be a bit higher
- Gallinari is top 10
- rest seem to be pretty on par

Ogilvy will be in the lottery and you have him at 31?

Mavs need a big SG who can defend and shoot the three, Raja Bell style. I think bass and fazekas have the PF position covered for the near term.

While I think the Bucks need a player like Blake, I don't think they drop another 1st on a PF. Unless they see something that most do not, in the chance that Yi can be converted to a 3 (not likely). I think if this board is the final and the picks go as is...I think that the Bucks look hard Batum or Ty Smith to fix the 3 position, or depending on a move of Redd or Mo, they look at Collison. Outside of moving up they won't be able to help the 2 if a Redd trade went down unless a move up for Gordan or Mayo (although I doubt OJ would play nice with a transition to Bogut's team).

That is the correct pick for the sonics, Need and talent.

Love at 20? Could be a steal, but I don't really like it, there's been questions about him being an NBA player and Oregon fans are still mad at him not going there. I like a Patrick Patterson or DJ White more than Love, but that's me.

I would hope for the Lakers to take Ibaka if he fell. He'd be nice potentially next to Andrew

Solid mock I have issues with some of the PG's though.
I think that the Nets would take Augustin before Collison. He fits the Jason Kidd mold more than Collison.
I think with the break neck speed that Lawson has that if he were available at 16 the Suns would have to take him, he just fits that system too well.
So I would put Augustin at 11, Lawson at 16 and Collison at 21 to the Warriors. Then the Wizards take Tyler Smith with their pick at 17.

The Blazers would snatch Collison up at 20th overall without a moment's hesitation. Collison's a legit lottery talent; hell, all three deserve to be in the top-20, maybe even top-17.
In that case, the Wizards can have the white Wes Unseld, Kevin Love, and be very proud of him. Love's a steal at 20 for Portland.
