    Donte Green reminds me Marvin Williams in a way.

    This year has good quality top half of the draft. I'd throw in the towel. Move Kidd. There is a slew of PG's out there. Starting with Derrick Rose, Jerryd Bayless are the top 2. Combo guards in Eric Gordon and OJ Mayo. Power players in Beasley, Love. There's good depth in this year's crop. If there's any time to blow things up, it's now, then let the suck begin.

    we suck either way, with or without Kidd. might as well develop some young guys and hope they pan out, better then suycking with old guys with no future

    Why should the Nets draft a backup big man?
    </div>


    Because he knows how to play the game? And plays it quite effectively?

    Maybe. He seems to be taller, but skinnier. And he needs to work on his post game when his shots aren't falling.

    Personally, I thought Marvin shoulda stayed at least another year, because I thought there was still alot to work on...much like Greene.

    I hope Flynn and Greene stay another year, they got alot to work on.

    Greene hangs around the outside far too much. Needs to work in the post more.

    I agree with drafting Love, although that's only if you end up with a late lottery pick. He reminds me of Chris Kaman (but a PF instead of a center).

    He doesn't have the physical ability right now to play PF in the NBA for any extended period of time. He would have to do a Boozer and drop a significant amount of weight to even be functional there. Besides, he doesn't have near the athleticism that Boozer does.

    Love isn't an NBA PF

    How so? I think there are legitimate questions about his quickness and foot speed, but his post game is already better than a lot of NBA big men's and he's a great rebounder. I think the dude's versatile offensive game and B-Ball IQ will help him overcome his lack of athleticism.

    Love's 6'9" 250, but a lot of that is body fat

    Kevin Love would compliment Richard Jefferson really nicely. He is great at the long bomb and Jefferson is always there.

    DeAndre Jordan will be good. Seems like everyone compares every big to Sene who looks half decent.

    My list:

    First round
    Beasley
    Jordan
    Hibbert
    Love
    Koufos

    Second round
    White
    Caracter
    Ponkrashov
    Dorsey
    Foster

    You just described an undersized NBA center.
