Who to take with the 14th pick??? 

Post#1 » by LBfo3 » Mon Apr 27, 2009 7:26 am

As it is assumed that the Suns will have the 14th pick in the upcoming NBA Draft, I wanted to find out where everyone stands on who to take with this pick. A lot of mocks have us going with Jonny Flynn or Ty Lawson. But should we really giving up on Dragic that quickly? Do we go with a big? My take is: we are pretty loaded at guard, and the bigs outside of the top 10 are mediocre. My pick would be James Johnson out of Wake Forest. He is a 6'8 235 Small Forward with a solid jumpshot and good athletic ability. Assuming we don't resign Matty "Mr Inconsistent" Barnes, we have Grant Hill and J dud at SF. With Grant hanging it up in 2 years, is J Dud really the answer at SF? I'm not ready yet to give up on Goran, and think that a SG, unless we give up LB or J Rich is out of the question. And Im not willing to take DeJuan Blair at 14. Therefore James Johnson is my guy. What do you guys think?

It's nice to name players but knowing how the Suns have drafted these past few years I'll be happy with anyone not named BJ Mullens or Tyler Hansbrough...

I'd rather we move the pick along with someone like JRich or something for someone who's on a good contract and can play solid D.
