Reasonable selection for the Pistons as well. He's supposed to be one of the guys Detroit is looking at.

Looks like Griffin is staying at Oklahoma for another year.

Your draft did make sense for the Bobcats. Now it doesn't at all. With Crash, Ammo and Dudley already on the roster there is no way we go with a SF.

Unless CDR measures out particularly well, I don't think there's any chance the Wizards take him. We're pretty happy with our SG rotation, and our offense seems to work best with strong SFs.

I guarantee the Pistons would take Brandon Rush if he was still available by the time we pick. He fit in perfectly with our system, and would be a great backup for Prince.

Seriously doubt Paxson drafts Jordan.

Chicago already has 2 young centers in Noah & Gray and both are very popular. Both guys have very limited ability to play the 4. Drafting another pure 5 makes little sense.

Also, Jordan is not the type of player Paxson drafts. He takes proven college players. He's gambled once in the draft w/ Thomas and many people consider that Paxson's biggest mistake. Had he stayed with his "formula" and taken safer college picks like Alridge or Roy, what he usually does, the Bulls would be a completely different team. If Paxson wastes another draft pick on Tyrus Thomas pt II he'll probably be taken aside in an alley somewhere and dealt with.

I'd probably pencil in Russell Westbrook for now. I think Paxson takes the first PG/SG with penetration ability.

interesting mock.

mayo did not declare yet.... and if he does, donnie walsh won't bring him in.

as a sixers fan, i like the pick... we'll see if #00 darrel arthur will still be there at 17 after camps. I hope so, but I'm skeptical.

Where's my boy Serge Ibaka?
