Default NBA draft

Very interesting to see what happens.

The biggest suprise to me is how high Westbrook of UCLA is rated.
I see is one of the best, if not the best athlete in the draft. I know he
played very good D against Mayo. But they have him as a projected
point? I really dont see that. AT all.

Beasely is apparently shrinking as we speak.

And people have Kevin Love going as high as 3 and some have him out of the top 10. Lots of disagreement. I await to see the onslaught for prospective point guards. And Lopez going so high? Jeez, I would never have expected that.

I think there is going to be some kickback after all these supposed PG's go in the top 15.

FROM Top to bottom i think this draft is really really weak... i mean, i dont think anyone is a future superstar... best player in here might be Bayliss from Arizona, explosive combo guard. beasley might be a good fit in miami, but dam they dont seem to even want him, kevin durant and beasley are very good friends and i have read that seattle wants to move to 2 for beasley, that might make some sense.... i also read marion and the #2 to denver for carmelo, i love wade and i dont think that trade would work, i dont like marion, but i'd rather have him and the 2 then melo.

I wonder how Kevin Love feels being that his new team may be worse than his old one?

might be the best in this draft, someone needs to jump on him, seattle should trade there other 5 picks and move up for him, start 2 rookies in the back court


DJ OMG THIS IS THE BIGGEST BUST, AND DONT THEY HAVE RAYMOND FELTON ?

They worked him. I just dont see a PG from watching UCLA games.
I know he did not play the position, but he did not look that ball wise.

And there goes Augustin. How many PG's is that now? I really think
this is a bit absurd.

Bayless should have stayed in school and may have been top 3 next year.

No way Love is a bust. He will get 15 pts and 8 rebounds by season end.
More important he is actually a basketball player. His skill level with hands
and feet are fantastic for a man his size. He is smart. He will not be a great
player, but he is completely solid. He has the best chance to make more of
an impact immediately than any of the players so far other than Beasely imo.

At least Lopez cut his hair. How many doobies do you think he and Sean Williams will be smoking?
