1. This is a weak draft
2. Many of the NCAA prospects withdraw because of potential lockout
3. Many Euro players enter the draft because the draft is weak
4. Top 2 picks (consensus) are from NCAA
Idea:
Why not take the best Euro player at #3 since this draft is "Eurostrong"?
That's why I've changed my picks.
My favourite Euro is Valanciunas (though Locke doesn't like him). He plays pick&roll very well, he's long and he has REALLY SOFT hands. It should translate to the NBA. I would consider Kanter but in my opinion by not playing he took a few steps back.
So my picks are:
#3 - Jonas Valanciunas
#12 - Donatas Motiejunas
"Lithuanian double punch"
