Chris Douglas-Roberts. Draft anyone else that actually has a chance of dropping that far and I'll be disappointed.

1] Jason Thompson - yes.
2] Eric Maynor - no.
3] Paul Harris - no.
4] Brook Lopez - if he's the last of the good bigs yes, otherwise no.
5] Earl Clark - good player, but doesn't fit a direct need so no.
6] C.Douglas-Roberts - YES!
7] Roy Hibbert - not sure yet, excellent heart and size.
8] Mario Chalmers - maybe.
9] Darrell Arthur - same as lopez.
10] Alexis Ajinca - i'm not sold on this kid, he seems like a big chance and from the little i've seen, i dont know that he makes the 1st round, he doesn't wow me.

Wow it sounds like you are the first to check them all out. Interesting thing is that Robin Lopez who was mentioned by several last week to be the Magic pick has actually gone up and his older brother has dropped. Sounds like someone is showing great in those workouts and it's not Brook.

Cougar, what a great thing to do! Thank you. I really enjoyed going through those. However, some of the ones toward the end are really out of date. The one from basketballbeat was really bizarre, and when I got to Corey Brewer, I checked the date and it was a projected 2008 draft from 2006! I think the one after that was from 2007.

Brook Lopez has got to be the pick if he's there, but he won't be.

Ok so I got dat new Jeezy stuck in my head.. But dat line goes well with da post.. It was pretty clear to me and everyone else we are kinda soft inside.. We dont have a guy who will just shove it down your throat an really bully guys around.. So I was bored last night an was peepin some draftee profiles when I came across Nathan Jawai.. For some reason Im thinkin we may have talked about this guy before.. But after readin what they say about this dude he could be a great fit.. They compare him to oakley but the guy looks like a freakin horse.. Maybe Jay knows a lil about dis guy? He put up 17/9 last season. Whatchu guys think?

Chalmers, Rush, and CDR are the 3 that I really want. Hopefully we'll draft a guard and try to get a 2nd rounder later and draft a big in there.
