Personally I like Randolph, but after watching Larry's interview on pacers.com, it seems as if he likes Arthur more than anybody. The fact that he says that the he thinks the person he wants will still be on the board scares me a little.
Could this be situation similar to the year we took Shawne before Marcus?

Randolph.
Jordan is too much of a project, and I prefer Anthony to Arthur.

Re: What If?
Other.
Out of the three you list, Arthur is the most appealing, but I'd prefer Speights or whichever player dropped out of the top 10 with those two off the boards, either Brook Lopez or Eric Gordon, most likely.
Frankly, I'd also advocate trading down. There are players I like in the 20s that I like as much (and in some cases more) than the selection at 11.

Re: What If?
I think I'd prefer Speights.
I'm actually kind of leaning towards putting Speights at the top of my list unless something wild happens like Gordon or Love dropping.

I have no idea what you're talking about, and clearly, neither do you.

I like Randolph.
However, I could see Larry taking Arthur or Speights.
I really hope it's not Jordan though.

Re: What If?
I think Gordon might have the chance to drop, as of right now.

I'm the one that said Jordan...just because it says who WILL they draft and not who SHOULD they draft.

I´d take Randolph, but seems that Bird likes Arthur.

Re: What If?
I really want Gordon or Westbrook but it does appear neither will be at 11. However, i am starting to full in love with Marreese Speights. He seems to be a very good defensive player, moves well, great rebounder. I think he could be the ideal power forward on our team. He can score and rebound.
Although from all the mock drafts i've seen he may be a reach at 11th pick.
