I did a quick google image search for a couple of the players and somehow came across this, which I thought I'd share.

thabeet will not bust but he is no scorer and thus colangelo will not pick him unless we're picking really late and he's available.

watch us end up with that italian kid. small forward, will probably be available. i can see it already.

i do think drafting another center would be good for colangelo. if he trades bargnani he looks like an idiot. if he drafts another c who plays well, everyone forgets about bargnani and he looks like a genius.

we need to trade up to solve our rebounding woes. Hasheem.

I'm also with Hater on Thabeet. I think a team getting him in the mid to late 1st round(if Ford is correct in hsi rankings) would be a great risk/reward pick

I like Calderon's ranking better.

Calderon > Ford

Like Vlad Rad with a lil bit more defense....
:pray:

Please Bargnani do not be a complete failure.

We don't need Kosta Kofous at all. Firstly, I doubt he'll declare for this year. And I watch him play in Ohio State (I'm a buckeye fan) He's got a good shot, but low defense, and kinda weak. As for people saying things like Hasheem isn't good because he's not offensive. Are you nuts? We don't need offense now, we need defense. Hasheem is the man.

We need a guy like Hasheem...he dose not need to score for us, just rebound and block shots. We need him!!

Depends on the centre. If Hibbert is available, he`s pretty close to being NBA ready. Georgetown has a long history of developing centres and Hibbert seems to have a good understanding of the game from the times i`ve watched him play. He may not be as athletic as some of the others, but he would be ready to contribute 15-20 minutes a game from day one.

Georgetown living off the rep off Ewing, Mourning, and Mutombo.

Then cam the next great one...... in Othella Harrington.... you remember the top frosh of 1995??? And then came Jahidi White... and then Mike Sweetney,,,

Not making an evaluation of Hibbert at all. But the great Georgetown center hype is like so 1995.
