What do the teams ahead of us need?
Lets say the draft is pretty much what it's supposed to be, and the teams pick based on needs.
Picks 1 and 2 will be Oden and Durant. This is for sure....
Lets just say it's Memphis and Boston.
The otehr teams ahead of us are Milwaukee, Phoenix, Seattle, Portland, Minnesota, Charlotte, and Chicago.
Below I will list each team ahead of us, and what they are most needing.
Milwaukee needs a PF: Jianlian, Noah, Horford, Wright
Phoenix needs a PF: Jianlian, Noah, Horford, Wright
Seattle needs a C/PF: Jianlian, Noah, Horford, Wright, Hibbert
Portland needs a SF: Green, Brewer, Wright, Young
Minnesota needs a PG/C: Hibbert, Law, Conley
Charlotte needs a C: Hibbert, Jianlian, Noah, Horford, Wright
Chicago needs a PF: Jianlian, Noah, Horford, Wright
OK Basically checking out the most glaring needs of each team we can come to the conclusion that Milwaukee is going to pick a PF. Phoenix is going to pick a PF. Seattle may pick Hibbert if they feel that Wilcox is their PF of the future. Portland will be the first team to pick a SF (outside of Durant). Minnesota will pick Hibbert, and if Hbbert isn;t there than they might trade down. If the trading down doesnt work than they will pick the best available PF. Charlotte wants Hibbert, but will probally end up taking a PF because Hibbert might not be available. Chicago needs a PF as well to replace PJ Brown.
This will leave 0 pf available for Sac (top 4 PF imo is what I mean)... We will probally end up taking best available again which will be a 6'8 205lbs SF...
I will update this thread when the official order comes out, but I can't see a top 4 PF fall to us.
My mock draft;
1. Memphis - Oden
2. Boston - Durant
3. Milwaukee - Horford
4. Phoenix - Wright
5. Seattle - Jianlian
6. Portland - Brewer
7. Minnesota - Hibbert (might draft Noah, than trade down to a team that drafts Law/Conley)
8. Charlotte - Noah (Hibbert if Minnesota takes Noah)
9. Chicago - Conley??? only SF/PG left and don't need either one really... Trade?
10. Sacramento - Let's hope Sacramento isn't at this spot.
What do you all think? I have too much time on my hands eh?
