To All You Grizzlies Fans, I Ask You This
Why in the hell, do the mocks have you taking Thabeet? That makes no sense, you just got a center in Gasol, and I doubt either of them can play the 4. If they plan on drafting Thabeet just to trade Gasol, that's a downgrade since Gasol is a serviceable player who has some offense unlike Thabeet, and way more potential. They're better off trading that pick to move down. But if they keep the pick, they might as well take Harden(sure they have Mayo, but Harden can be a great sixth man or decent starter, and you guys need some bench help), or Hill(this is the most logical pick for them, but they should trade down to 4, if they like him), or take Rubio. Bottom line is that, the Grizz should not Thabeet.

I have no respect for this mock drafts until the draft...if we actually end up with Thabeet, I´ll never more read anything related to draft, workouts or wahtever

Even if they draft either Thabeet or Rubio. Trade the pick for the best offer to help solve the Grizz issues at PF and more depth help please.

Now you have 2 centers....great!
I still prefer Hashy over Rubio...however I highly doubt Hashy will be any kind of hybrid of Mutombo/Yao as he verbatimely said in an interview. Silly African!
