smoothie · Post #1 » by **smoothie** » Mon Jun 23, 2008 1:43 pm

using knowledge of recent reports from the team you follow most closely, please form an educated guess as to whom your team will select and why.

this is not about who you want your team to draft, but who you think they want to draft given the situation below.

Draft Board:
1. Chicago - Rose
2. Miami - Beasely
3. Minnesota - Mayo
4. Seattle - Bayless
5. Memphis - Love
6. New York - Westbrook
7. LA Clippers - Gordon
8. Milwaukee - B.Lopez
9. Charlotte - Randolph
10. New Jersey - Gallinari
11. Indiana - ??

after posting this thread in every board leading up to yours, i've got this draft board with a shocker in Milwaukee. apparently, they don't feel mgmnt is really taken with any sf options in the draft and will go best player available... that being lopez (boy the bobcat fans were upset).

i'm very interested to read your responses! you're on the clock!

Augustin, no questions asked. We need a point guard and he's still on the board.

I think the Pacers go with Augustin also, BUT may think long and hard about taking Alexander for the sake of trade bait if they think that Portland (and other teams) may want to trade, since it sounded like they were really impressed with him.

In all reality, probably Augustin.

I wouldn't love it, but I do expect it.

Augustin.

Yeah, I'm in between on him, but I would say given that situation we would take Augustin.

If it were me I would take Alexander, no question and work on a deal. I just don't like Augustine at 11.

I guess Augustin is the best option for us (although not the most ideal in my mind)

DeAndre Jordan, we will get a point guard someother way. Jordan will be a better pro, and we would much rather have a veteran point guard to lead the team.

Veteran Point Guard/TInsley/Diener
Dunleavy/Daniels/Murray/Williams
Granger/Williams
J.O./Diogu
DeAndre Jordan/Foster
