The choices for the #8 pick are:

Nicolas Batum
Donte Greene
DeAndre Jordan
Kevin Love
Anthony Randolph
Marreese Speights
Russell Westbrook

Re: Group Mock - 2008 Edition - #8

hmm, i was in very big doubt wether to choice augustin or westbrook, but im going with augustin, because i see him as the one with the most upside of the 2. westbrook is the bether defender, but i like augustin in the open court bether.

Re: Group Mock - 2008 Edition - #8

I've picked mostly on talent/potential and here I went with Jordan. But if you look at Charlotte I think they could go with any of Jordan, Love, or Randolph and I actually see the latter two as being better fits with Okafor.

Talking about fits, they could also go with Arthur

Re: Group Mock - 2008 Edition - #8

Id probably go with Love actually (pun not intended). Hes a unique player, and someone will have a need for a solid bigman with good passing skills. Depends whose on the board, but Love or Arthur could be the pick.

Randolph

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"If you've ever seen Iverson play in person, you know that his improvisational skills are amazing. Baron Davis calls him unguardable. He's a killer on the fast break. One on one, even one on two, when the guy they call the Answer is on a one-way trip to the basket, you better just foul him. People can hate all day about the number of shot attempts. But, damn, give him props for even getting them up. He's small enough to have every shot contested. That 39% shooting sounds terrible to the regular reader, but have you seen these NBA players lately?"

-SLAM issue #68, April 2003

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FAVORITE TEAM: (whatever team Allen Iverson is on)
OTHER FAVORITES: Memphis, New York, New Orleans, Charlotte, Philadelphia, Indiana, Denver
TOP 5 FAVORITE PLAYERS: Allen Iverson, OJ Mayo, TJ Ford, Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony
OTHER FAVORITES: Adam Morrison, Samuel Dalembert, Michael Redd, Salim Stoudemire, Rajon Rondo, Caron Butler, Emeka Okafor, Kobe Bryant, Randy Foye, Jermaine O'Neal, JJ Redick, Marcus Camby, Kyle Lowry, Andre Iguodala, Sasha Vujacic, Acie Law, Thaddeus Young, Joakim Noah, Tony Parker, Javaris Crittenton, Brandon Roy, Michael Beasley, DJ Agustin (favorite rookies: Ricky Rubio, Tyreke Evans, Stephen Curry, Brandon Jennings, Earl Clark, Jrue Holiday, Tyler Hansbrough, Jeff Teague)

Re: Group Mock - 2008 Edition - #8

It's good if you post in this thread, but it would be even better if you vote at the same time.

The poll will be open until 10 am ET unless we have a tie.
