I have been looking at clips of basically all of the unknowns and X-factor players the last week or so and this is how I see it now:
(also these are my predictions for draft spots)
1.Washington (could be Denver as well)- Lebron James, 'nuff said.
2.Denver- Rickey Paulding, a year by his lonesome proves himself.
3.Chicago- James White, has the potential and fits right in
4.Golden State-Kendrick Perkins, easily top 8 center.
5.Cleveland- Carmelo Anthony,no Caron but is better than Murray.
6.Memphis via Houston- Malick Bidaine,dang he got game...SF/PF/C nice.
7.Detroit via Memphis- Chris Duhon, solid Piston mold PG.
8.New York- Jarvis Hayes, Caron Butler of this draft easily.
9. Atlanta-Reece Gaines,bad move to keep Terry at SG.
10.Phoenix- Zoran Planinic, perfect PG for Starbury to score with.
11.Utah- Luke Ridnour, Stockton with some White Chocolate.
12.New Orleans- Chris Marcus, tree trunk,NO food turns him into Jerome James before he lost 120 lbs.
13.Indiana- Kirk Hinrich, solid leader for rowdy bunch.
14. Milwaukee- Carlos Delfino, DGad+Haislip+TT+Redd+Delfino= contender in EC.
15.Seattle-Pape Sow, fills their gaping head wound.
16.Philadelphia- Anderson Varejao, adds bang to the banged.
17.Portland-T.J. Ford, he drops but it's predictacble but wont start any time soon.
18.Miami-Boris Diaw-Riffiod, he plays Riley grinder bball
19.Sacramento via Detroit-Zaur Pachulia, adds another Turk to the mix of things, and a Vlade replacement.
20.Toronto-David Harrison,smart pick,but he's more of a Lafrentz than an Olowokandi.
21.Boston-Dwayne Wade, he drops because of Desmond Mason syndrome but becomes PG of Celts' future.
22.New Jersey-Christos Topoutos, they wanted him in 02 got him in 03
23. Dallas-Eduardo Sonseca-Hernandez, a Spaniard joins the
international crew.
24.Orlando via L.A. C- Nick Collison, adds strength at PF
25.Minnesota-Christjan Drejer, Wally without problems perhaps.
26.Orlando-Sani Becirovic, gives good combo G to start with Hill at the handling positions (Hill will play point forward).
27.San Antonio-Mickael Pietrus, he joins Manu and they form a new international 1-2-3-4 Parker Ginobili Pietrus Duncan.
28.Orlando via Sacramento-Brian Cook, EC center with great O skills but needs work on D.
29. L.A. L-Luke Walton, he fits right into to a Kobe,George, Kareem,Shaq lineup at a point PF that suits him perfectly.
30.New York via Denver-Marcus Moore,Bozeman is the better old school PG but at 6-6 Moore is a nice fit in the crowded Knicks back-court.
31.Philadelphia via Golden State-Darius Rice,sad he dropped
32.Washington-Troy Bell, unfortunately he is a shorter Dixon type.
33.Chicago-David West, how did he drop...unfortunately gets traded for his Elton Brand hard-work ethic.
34.Cleveland-Andrew Glyniadakis, only Cleveland would take another center when they already have 6.
35.Houston-Mario Austin, fitting name for a Rocket, and he will eat his 6-8 280 lb frame to 6-7 340 and change his undersized center's name to Pig "I can't beleive I ate the whole thing" Miller.
36.Memphis-Marcus Hatten, he is a lot like Juan Dixon, so J-Dub likes him and finds a way to rid himself of White Chocolate.
37.New York-Derrick Zimmerman, Knicks always need another PG.
38.Atlanta-Doug Wrenn, undersized but athletic 4.
39.Chicago via Phoenix- Xiu Yuyang, another international big fat center.
40.Utah-Britton Johnsen,a Ute for the new light skinned Jazz.
41.New Orleans-Brandin Knight, adds a backup for someone..but not BD.
42.Indiana- Mike Sweetney, his big fat a$$ is smaller than Austin but he takes up space and CAN play 4 for short periods.
43.Milwaukee-Ratis Grafs, he and DGad clean up the inside.
44.Seattle-Holis Price, solid scoring G
45.Philadelphia-Josh Howard, a solid swing man.
46.Portland-Jason Kapono, he WILL end up a Laker though.
47.Detroit via Miami-Dantay Jones, athletic 2
48.Detroit-Taj Holden, solid 4/5 with range
49.Toronto-Jason Gardner, with Jefferies at 2 Gardner fits.
50.Boston-Brett Nelson, backup PG too small
51.New Jersey-Ronald Blackshear, Kittles is gone
52.Dallas-Jules Camera, check Senegal off the list
53.L.A. C-Florent Pietrus, Bo Outlaw has been cloned
54.Minnesota-Steve Blake, T-Wolves may have a steal here.
55.Atlanta via Orlando-Ebi Ere, small 3 but athletic like Ricky Davis.
56.Portland via San Antonio-Theron Smith, one more headcase.
57.L.A. L-Keith Bogans, should fid his way to Portland in a swap of sorts for Kapono.
58. Sacramento-Herve Lamizana, another big.
didn't declare: Emeka Okafor,Cedric Bozeman, Dijon Thomson, Evan Burns, Andre Patterson, Luke Jackson, Channing Frye, Hassan Adams, Sean Dockery, Raymond Felton, Rashad McCants, Jamar Smith, JJ Reddick, Amit Tamir, Rick Rickert, Blagota Sekulic, Kresimir Loncar, Yaniv Green, Yotam Halpurn, Ronney Turiaf, Deng Gia, Jackie Butler, Travis Outlaw, Leol Deng, Ndudi Ebi, David Pagett.
