You really think Deandre Jordan will fall that far? I know he's been a turnover machine, but he still shoots a good % from the field and has all of the stuff you can't teach (height, width, etc...)
Also, I don't see how the Pistons could reasonably draft Robin Lopez over Tyler Hansbrough... you have to think someone will take him in the 1st round.

Hansbrough is not coming out, neither is Lawson.
Jordan should go higher and in a normal year he would but there are three other 7 footers about the same age and either as athletic or much more skilled. I think it would be hard for a GM to justify taking him unless he is going to push the 'next Dwight Howard' agenda.

Re: MemphisX 2008 NBA Mock Draft v1.0 (Pre-Madness)
is this what you think the draft is going to be or what you think it should be? blake griffin and brook lopez going 3 and 4 is ridiculous(not that it wouldn't happen just that neither player is good enough).

Well it is a combination. I like Griffin but not Lopez.
I think the Grizzlies want someone physical and nasty. That is Griffin.
I think Lopez would be a good compliment to Al Jefferson. A good shotblocker, athletic, capable scorer that will thrive off of one on one coverage.

No Jason Thompson from Rider? I have heard that Stefanski has been out to see him quite a few times. I have a hard time seeing them taking Kevin Love over him, because they already have an undersized hustle PF in Reggie Evans.

Nets are not drafting another big man so strike that off the list

Isn't Weaver another version of Gabe Pruitt? Only with a worse shot? I could see the Celtics trying Jamont Gordon if he's in (for talent reasons), aside from that I think they'll be looking for a 4/5 taller than 6'7".

The Lopez brothers to Minne/Det is a great pick. Thumbs up from me.
