Your 2008 Mock Draft

Hear is my try mind you Slam is the man.

1. Beasley
2. Rose
3. Lopez
4. Hibbert
5. Mayo
6. Russell Westbrook, SIZE , SPEED , STRENTH
7. C D R . might should be a top 5, sleeper of the draft,
8, Griffin, Jordan , Thabeet , hard pick for Charlotte.
9. Jordan , To much upside to go deeper
10. Gordon replacement for Gordon
11. Thabeet way to much upside to go deeper
12. Collison
13. Lawson another speedy point stronger than D.J
14. Love ,A steal at 14
15. Randloph
16. Javale Mcgee
17. Hansborough Just to active to go any lower
18. B Rush don't like him but the kid can ball
19. D.J Ausutin very nice back up point
20. Hickson NC state Another unknown sleeper LOTS of upside
21. Budlinger may be under rated
22. R Lopez nice big body
23. Ellington might have the purest shot in the draft
24. D Author very nice defender , needs work on offence
25. Ibaka
26 D Green
27. Devon Hardin
28. Bill Walker
29. Batun could drop to the 2nd nice player
30. Bill Walker

So i give it a shot , Notice the players i have for Charlotte. I could see us taking a chance on Jordan or Thabeet hear.

If Hibbert goes top 5 I'll buy you tickets to see his first game.

Do you consider Sheldon Williams to be a better basketball player than Roy Hibbert?

I consider pretty much everyone projected to go in the 1st round better than Shell Head.

But that could be just me...

Sheldon waa a bust as a Lottery pick. He may still have something to contribute, but he was no where near the first round quality they thought.**That said, even the most ardent anti Sheldon guy had him going in the mid 1st round, certainly before the 2nd round. So, it was one of those situations where everyone saw potential and did not recognize that he had pretty much tapped out the potential in College. I blaame the Hawks for taking him so high, but someone would have taken him in the late teens somewhere.

Hibbert is not going Top 10. Way too raw for my taking. Too much work to be done to get what is needed out of him when there is some other better talent much more refined and sure to produce. He's a Big, but he's still a project. Lottery teams need someone who will likely provide dividends quicker. I see him going to Cleveland to have him groomed to replace Big Z in a few years.

Hibebrt Raw?

That's interesting. Along with DJ (and maybe Beasley) I think he is the most NBA ready out of the current draft class!!

Different strokes for different folks U guess!!

Well it was the Hawks that drafted him...and they're a bunch of boneheads. And no, I certainly don't consider Williams to be a better basketball player. But I also thought he didn't deserve to go higher than mid to late first round in a weak draft, just like I don't think Hibbert deserves to go any higher than mid round in a strong draft. I like Ohara's idea of replacing Z in Cleveland, or him going to New Jersey.

Scratch Blake Griffin off your lists. he's staying in school another yr. hard to believe; he was projected Top 10

He'll go in the top 3 next year if his knee holds up dude had an underrated year because of Rose, Beasley and Tyler.

Just so everyone knows, we don't have a 2008 2nd round pick. This is due to the Kareem Rush trade.

Kareem Rush is a bum!
