Yes he is. Never did I say that. Never did I mean to imply that.

If Patrick O'Bryant and Saer Sene go in the lottery ,Thabeet sure as hell is a lottery lock no matter how raw he is and what year he declares.

In the Top 4? No. And that's what we were debating. Know what's going on.

There is no written rule on that, most especially since those two have basically underperformed in the NBA. I see what you mean though, but you would think GM's have learnt from their mistakes

He had 12,10, and 7 in his last game and is going against Aaron Gray tonight. This is his biggest test of the year. Gray is someone he doesn't have a size advantage against, let's see how he fares against a fairly skilled senior.

If i'm nbadraft.net i'm rushing to my keyboard and getting this guy out of my 2006 mock draft, in front of a lot of nba scouts he was brutal. Why they continue to have him in the top five of their mock draft is beyond me. Maybe its to create controversy, at that i guess they've succeeded.

Maybe its because... Well.. You know...

They do this every year...

Hey Every year come on give us some love I must say that I'm not really as high on him as Aran. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I still think he's a first rounder. Take care guys and please continue to give us feedback.

I have no problem with you going out on a limb and putting sleepers in the first round, but there's no way he was going to be top 5. Put him in the late lottery and if he impresses then slide him up. You look worse by making these bold predictions that fail than if you were a little more conservative and were late to recognize a player as legit. For example, let's say Rodney Stuckey is no where on your mock; it would be a problem, but it's not a major visible problem. Hasheem Thabeet, a kid with no skill whatsoever being exposed in the Big East at #5 ahead of Horford, Wright, etc, is a visible problem and even casual draft followers who check in a few times per year will doubt your credibility.

Thanks for the critque I will do my best to be mindful of this in the future. The only issue I have Nimreitz is how come when we do things right we get no credit. I will talk to Aran but please be mindful that I'm am not in charge of the mock. But I honestly think he'll be drafted within the first 14 picks if he comes out. Maybe we have him to high I'm not saying that your wrong at all I think you and other posters on here make very valid points. But with the NBA center position in shambles I think he will go higher than what people think. Although I could be wrong I'm not the alpha and omega of the NBA draft Thanks again for the input without people like you my job wouldn't nearly be as fun.
