It's not the greatest 'till OJ is at three.

Very nice mock Cammo. Speaking for the Sonics, if we stand pat no trades I think that's a best case scenario. I also agree that McHale will take Love.

Rumor is McHale loves him. Memphis will take him at #5 if Minny doesn't scoop him up, so it is not that big a stretch. Minny would love (pun intended) to move down and scoop Love up in the 8 range, but it is looking more and more like he would not be there. They may take Lopez, they may take Mayo, but everything I am hearing says they like Love best.

Down to where? Memphis is set to pick him at #5. Love is no longer a late lotto guy, he is a borderline top 5 pick.

you heard it on 1 draft express rumor.

nothing local has leaked out anything on who the wolves want. very hush hush,.

This is almost the perfect Sonics draft. I'd say our last 3 2nd round picks are all going to be stashed over seas.

I can't see Petrie taking Jordan--the only player like him that he has ever picked was Gerald Wallace, and he supposedly really regrets that pick.

I'd say Arthur is more likely.

NOW YOU'RE TALKING!
Ibaka and Kaun FTW.
Pistons *would* take another power forward IF he was 6'10". We were simply adamantly against selecting another undersized 4.
Jason Maxiell is 6'5" but wants to play like a C. Amir Johnson is (allegedly) nearing 6'11" but wants to play like a SF. If we can throw in another PF that is 6'10" and plays like a PF? Mismatches all over the place.

Al Jefferson isn't big enough to guard Cs, and Love certainly isn't big enough to guard Cs either. I cannot see how these two can thrive together, unless Love comes off the bench, and you're not hoping to select a bench player with the 3rd overall pick. McHale may love Love's "old school" style, but he isn't stupid enough to select him with the 3rd overall pick. To me that pick is almost certainly Mayo or Lopez.
Also, does Westbrook really go to a team with Devin Harris? Seems like a bad fit, these two are way too similar.
Other than that I like the mock.

IMO JJ Hickson might sneak into first round at the expense of Bill Walker.Also Hendrix will prolly go as a very early 2nd round pick.

I don't know what your fascination is with the Pistons drafting a PF in the first round but it is NOT happening.

GswStorm3 · Post #16 » by **GswStorm3** » Mon Jun 9, 2008 2:07 pm

Chase Budinger is definitely not the greatest pick for the Warriors with Speights and Rush still sitting on the board.

Post #17 » by **Ruzious** » Mon Jun 9, 2008 2:37 pm

I see you finally listened to me about putting Love much higher, but #3 is even higher than I'd put him. I think Lopez goes 3, but you never know what mistake Kevin McHale's going to make.

Arthur is going much lower than 15. Hibbert should go higher.

The Grizzlies will be bringing over Marc Gasol and have Darko under contract for two more years, they are not drafting Broke Lopez

A M. Gasol/Darko frontcourt would probably be the worst starting frontcourt in NBA history. As would Warrick playing next to either of them. Memphis needs to go big with this pick.

I somehow see Memphis picking Love which is a decent replacement for Gasol in the PF spot. I don't think Minnesota (why?) or Seattle would be interested in Love and Lopez would most likely be gone at No5. I think it'll go like this: #3 OJ Mayo, #4 Brook Lopez, #5 Kevin Love.
