What does the Seattle faithful think about 46? I'm leaning towards Nathan Jawai... but Semih Erden and Davon Jefferson both look good. I'm going to give you guys a couple hours to talk to me and then i will make my pick @ 9:00pm (detroit time) . Speak if you want to be heard!

Jawai or Asik for sure, they are both killer value here and fit a need. Hope you can pick up Erden with your next pick.

That would make our draft:

Bayless, Batum, Ibaka and one of Jawai or Asik

That means we'd grab our guard we need, a good swingman to replace Wilkins, a prospect to leave over a year (Ibaka) and Jawai or Asik, both steals for where we're getting them, and both are prospects that we could leave overseas.

If our draft actually goes this well I'll be VERY VERY pleased. :clap:

One other thing, there are only three more picks then it's you again. If you take Jawai or Asik here, there's a chance the other one will be available at 50 and if not Erden will probably be available. Same with Jason Thompson, we should be able to get 1 more big at 50 too.

MY big board looks something like:
Jawai
Asik
Jason Thompson
Erden
Richard Hendrix
Goran Dragic
Devon Jefferson
Malik Hairston
Anton Ponkrashov

i also love ajinca but he went at 35. i actually think ajinca will go in the first round for sure. so i drafted Jawai. i am really loving this draft for the sonics.

So far blaha112 is having a great draft. He has chosen:

4. Jerryd Bayless PG
24. Nicolas Batum SG/SF
32. Serge Ibaka PF/C
46. Nathan Jawai PF/C

50. TBD
56. TBD

I am liking this alot. These guys in R2 can all play. Jason Thompson would be a steal in R2.

looks like a lot of we Pacer fans have been visiting the Sonics board. do you guys really want two first round picks? if not, what trade assets would you be interested in to move that 24th pick to Indy?
