So if this scenario happens...

If the Bucks were to fall in the middle-later of the top 10 in the Draft, and drafted DeAndre Jordan, do you think Bogut would be dealt? What would have to happen for Bogut to be expendable?

Is this the same all potential DeAndre Jordan that is averaging 8/6?

What exactly has Jordan done that would warrant the team pinning its hopes on him and trading away Bogut?

Wouldn't the better question be, What if Brook Lopez is still on the board?

Just say no to that scenario.

I'm not a huge fan of either Jordan or Lopez. Lopez at least plays defense, but he's pretty dumb offensively from what I've seen, or is incapable of seeing passing lanes.

Drafting Jordan would make absolutely zero sense unless this team is going into full rebuild mode, because Jordan is likely 2-3 years away from really showing what he has on an NBA level. I'd say of the guys listed in the lottery right now, he's the least likely pick by the Bucks.

He's a 100% potential pick right now. Whoever is taking him is hoping to land the next Dwight Howard (nevermind that Dwight Howard came in and averaged 12 and 10 in the NBA as an 18 year old, and Jordan is putting up 8/6 in college at the same age).

This reminds me of the Bogut vs Bynum debate. Bynum was the raw physical specimen that could be the next Shaquille O'Neal or the next Desagana Diop. Bogut was polished and NBA ready. Bynum was averaging a double/double with 2.1 blocks per game before he went down with his injury and there were few that could say he didn't look like the best big from his class. Bogut's quieted that somewhat, but it'll be interesting to see how Bynum does when he returns.

I don't think there should ever be a question. Take the guy you think will be the best player three years from now.

Best case scenario if we take Jordan is both players turn out to be studs and all of the sudden we have an overabundance of talented bigs. Oh darn.
