10. Sacramento Kings
Dead man walking!!!!!!!!!! There isn't a more depressing NBA roster than this one -- washed-up All-Stars, multiple bad contracts, one lunatic (Artest), a new head coach in Reggie Theus (the third one in 14 months), the possibility of relocation within the next two-three years, and if that's not enough, my entire outdoor blackjack table at the Wynn decided at 5:30 Saturday afternoon that the Maloofs weren't cool anymore, that they were even a little creepy. So whatever they do at No. 10, it's not helping that litany of problems. The good news: Green is the best player on the board and never should have slipped this far -- shades of Caron Butler a few years ago, actually.

The VP's verdict: Take Green; try to get contenders to bite on Ron Artest and the just-about-washed-up Mike Bibby (expiring in 2009) for expiring contracts; test Brad Miller's DNA to make sure scientists didn't secretly do a Cage/Travolta "Face Off" switch with Miller and Greg Ostertag, since that's the only possible explanation for how much Miller stunk last season.
 
what i dont grip is Green might be the best player here. however Dorell Wright has been mentioned in every Artest trade. im not thrilled on loading up on SF's. If we did draft Green. i think Salmons gets traded.

I think if we keep the 10th and Hawes, Noah, or Y are on the board we draft one of these guys. we go big. But i really think theres a good chance the Bulls draft Hawes and Y and Noah could go higher. It worrys me that Green is a Petrie type player. and there has been alot of talk about us being intrested in Green.

with that said we draft Green...... We need to trade Ron for a camby or a big. along wit a pick or something
 
I hope we don't draft Green, he'll be a John Salmons type player at best. He is not a difference maker and would fit in as a good role player on a good team.

That's the same stuff people said Brandon Roy last year.

They did? The only negative thing I remember about Roy was that he had a limited ceiling, but that's about it. Everyone called him the rookie of the year and he ended being ROY. Green is passive and doesn't use all his tools to his advantage in the game, he's a lot like Odom in that sense. To me he's a poor man's Lamar or Boris Diaw at best.
