Cammo's Mock Draft (Final 4 Edition)

[evildallas]

If Charlotte gets Joey Dorsey in the 2nd, it would almost make up for their drafting of Sean May as a 1st a couple of years ago. As an Atlanta fan I hope he goes sooner (and I really hate not even having a single pick in the draft).

[DmoneyH3]

Russell Westbrook over Donte Greene for Portland's 1st rounder. We already have Jones and Webster as SF 3 pt specialists.

Donte Greene can be so much more than a 3 point specialist. He could make Portland disgustingly good in a few years if he lives up to his potential.

Cammo,
As a Pacer fan, what team do you think might be most willing to trade a 1st Rd. pick. I know it all depends on an offer, but in general, what is the lowest pick that might be had? IN had true need @ PG & PF/C. That said, I still agree if the draft went the way you have it IN would likely pick EG, but we would still have needs.

The bigger question is what exactly does Indy have to offer? Indy could probably trade their pick for both NJ picks and take Collison and Hibbert. Portland's pick is said to be available, though I am not sure Indy has anything they want all that badly. A Dunleavy deal could be possible, but if I had to guess Indy will have a hard time moving up. Trading down and picking up NJ's picks and taking Hibbert and Collison or Love and Collison could be a better route to go for Indy.

Hibbert would fit in the Pacers' offense about as well as adding a big chunk of cement to the starting five. I dont really understand how we can trade our pick for both NJ picks, seeing as how their top pick is looking to be better than Indiana's right now..?

Do you think Greene will become a much better player than Martell Webster? Because Martell is a 3pt specialist and I think he is a good athlete but he just isnt used the right way in Portland and doesnt have enough plays run for him. Still, the question I ask is do you believe Greene is enough of an upgrade over Martell to warrant taking him at 13? I havent seen much of him this year but I hear that he still has a lot of room to improve.

I think Greene can become a poor man's Rudy Gay.

Like it as a Blazer fan. Really like the 2nd round, however a poster on the Blazer board with a reliable source said earlier in the year that Pritchard had targetted Bayless and Westbrook so I'm just not sure PDX would pass 0n him.

No dude. This draft is too good to pass up. Hickson and Ibaka are excellent prospects and Greene is good if really raw. Pritchard would be very happy with a draft like this even if there's no Bayless and Westbrook. Arguably the best players available were drafted at every spot, and with solid value.

[Ruzious]

I think it's a good mock.

The 2 things I'd bet on are that Batum will go lower (I think much lower), and Love will go higher.

If you look @ his mock Westbrook is still available and PDX takes Greene. My point was not that we wouldn't want Greene or that would be disappointed with this Draft, just that KP wouldn't take Greene with Westbrook still available.

[ahartleyvu]

Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet. Augustin 6th!?

[DanDanE420]

Greene= Tim Thomas. It's almost uncanny.

[Cammo101]

Westbrook is by far the most overrated player in this years draft. Undersized SG who plays very out of control. I would take Donte Greene over him 100 times out of 100.

Yeah, take the guy who can't shoot, rebound, defend, or dribble worth a damn. I don't approve of guys who choose to take over half of their attempts as 3's and make them at a terrible %. He's also can't create a lick of offense, and i've seen a bunch of Cuse games. He's extremely slow laterally on D as well, and gets blown by alot unless Cuse is in their zone.

[ReasonablySober]

I hope you're wrong for the Bucks sake.

QFT.

This guy was a freshman, cut him a break. These were a lot of the same arguements people had against taking Rudy Gay.

Williams, Redd, Gallinari, Yi, and Bogut would be a good young team IMO. Gallinari will do a lot of the dirty work the rest of those guys won't. He is very underrated by people cause they have not seen much of him.
