<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (gambitnut @ Jun 12 2008, 11:02 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Catching up here ... I like the Westbrook and Gallinari picks. I think both could be Brandon Roy type picks, SG/SF players with PG skills who are more developed and more ready to contribute right away, but slip a little bit because they don't have the "potential" of some of the rawer players. I think they'll have some of the better stats and be in the running for rookie of the year, maybe get an all-star selection or two, but not be huge stars. I think Westbrook will help the Clippers more because they are closer to being decent if Brand doesn't opt out. I'm not sure what the Bucks will do, I hear trade rumors, but nothing definite. How well will Gallinari fit next season? Was there a player on the board with better potential that they could have picked instead? I still like the pick, if for no other reason, because , with the rumors of him only wanting to play for NY or NJ, I love the idea of the Bucks calling a player's bluff two years in a row. I like Love, my only comment on that pick is that I would have picked Jordan there as well and slid Okafor over to PF. Can Randolph play PF, if not I probably would have picked Alexander or Greene and looked at rebuilding and trading Carter and/or Jefferson. I think I would have gone with a SF for Sacramento, and traded Artest if needed, and officially started the rebuild process. KC, other than trying to imitate Steve Kerr and take the heat off of me, what made you decide to pick Hickson? I agree with others that CDR is a good player, but maybe not the best fit for Philadelphia, not sure who I would have picked instead though.</div> ------------------------------------------------------------ I went with Love do to the fact I was drafting for Charlotte and in perspective Larry Brown as their new coach. With Brown's track record of not playing developmental players (Milicic) and going with more NBA ready talent he would want Love a whole lot more. Charlotte plays in the East so their not that far out of making a run for the playoffs they want to win now. With Love they get there faster than if they picked up Jordan and waited a couple year s to develop.
If I waz thinking about this mock earlier, I would have offered Brad Millar for the 9th pick, and would have targeted Augustin.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BasX @ Jun 13 2008, 09:41 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>easy pick, too easy</div> Nice pick. What do you think of the other picks so far?
picks 1-6 are solid, I'm not sold on Westbrook but i never truly watched him i don't trust Italian players cause they are over hyped love at 9 is a good pick not sold on Randolph or Jordan at all DJ is a tough one for me Greene is a good pick Hickson i don't know much bout and CDR is a good pick thought to the 6ers is maybe an iffy selection at first glance thats what i think
