I like the Mayo pick for the Wolves. I really hope they don't mess this pick up.

Alexander is WAY too low and no way in hell Portland takes Greene over Batum

1 and 2 are tossups. I think the better player for Chicago would be Beasley considering their fans have complained about having no post presence for the last 2-3 years.

Heat most definetly have the easiest pick in this draft, whoever the bulls dont take

Why is Utah at 25? They're actually at 23. ^^;

The Nets will rather trade the Pick then Pick Jordan . Rod Thorn wants help NOW and not maybe somewhere in the future .

If Portland can get Rudy Fernandez to come over i doubt they look for another wing player unless they arent happy with Martell Webster, which wouldnt surprise me.

You cloned Brandan Rush. He can't play in New Jersey and Houston at the same time. He has long legs, but not that long.

You're overrating Alexander way too much and I like Greene as a fit for Portland a lot.

Good job GSWHoops, I like it! :clap:

I dont like some of those picks......Clevelend taking Hibbert when they need a PG or SG?? Magic taking the bad lopez brother over CDR, Hendrix, or Thompson as well as several other good SG's? Overall it is pretty solid, but i dont see some of the teams going the route u do. It's still early tho so we'll see...

I hate it when Heat fans say that Beasley is better fit when we all know that when a Heat fan says that that just means that "we want Rose" which is the translation for Heat fans.

Also Rose is also a great fit for the Bulls. Any great young PG prospect is great for anyteam that doesnt have an elite PG.

The way i see it, I honestly think Beasley's a good pick for Miami.
Miami needs an athletic big guy that can anchor the frontcourt with Marion. There he'll probably go for up to 25-30 mins. a night.
A Wade-Marion-Beasley trio looks pretty freakishly good.
