???

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Na, top 5 though.

If I had a guess for top 5 next year, I would say Griffin, Mullens, Rubio, Jennings, DeRozan.

 

[daprescription]

warriors getting jennings

 

[tmukg21]

Blake griffin goes first then all those pg/sg bodies

 

[allen3xis]

If Thabeet plays as I expect...I don't see him not being top 3.

My money would be on Griffin right now tho.

Jennings aint goin lotto unless a team goes the Bassy route and wants to market someone.

 

[ballinboykz]

What in the...

daprescription, I knew you were a W's fan... and partially Bobcats... I had no idea you liked the Clippers too

Anyway, I think he should be top 5, but dude isnt the next superstar. Im not impressed yet. He did alright in the Olympics, which is something positive. But Idont think he is automatically #1 pick.

 

[sohi 23]

My main reason for asking(disclaimer my paint skills are terrible

)

 

[allen3xis]

I haven't seen the kid other than highlights so i can't comment..

but top 5 is def possible....cause no other PG is worthy of that.

 

[rellbettablues]

Hell no.

Dominic James getting drafted.

 

[darthska]

I was going to give my opinion, but it's already been presented via printscreen, so no need.

 

[philballa09]

only if the knicks owns the pick

 

[allen3xis]

*sidebar

Is that NBA draft for the first one?

Dom James still being drafted

...shows you how big of a joke that site is.

 

[sohi 23]

Ska your big toe:

 

[sohi 23]

Allen, I don't even know.

I just googled NBA 09 mock draft.
I think one of the sites was mymockdraft or something

 

[doitallpaul]

Blake Griffin is going to be number 1. Also my sleeper is Jonny Flynn, dude is gonna be very similar to Chris Paul

 

[darthska]

PhilBalla09:

---

only if the knicks owns the pick

Actually, good point. I would like to add a disclaimer, if I may, SoHi.

The statement I made that you screenprinted should be voided if he is drafted #1/top 5 by the Knicks or the Bobcats (Michael Jordan's incompetent,'Kwame is #1!!!' self).

 

[i nasmatic i]

that first mock looks like it's from draftexpress.

 

[sohi 23]

Yea, you're right Nasmatic.
1st one is from draftecpress, 2nd one is from mynbadraft.com(

)
This one is nbadraftpress


1st Round
[table][tr][td]
1. Minnesota Timberwolves - Ricky Rubio (1990-PG) DKV Joventut
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Rubio looks to be one of the more unique talents available in recent NBA Drafts. If you're not buying into the Ricky Rubio hype, all you need to do is tune into the Olympics and stand in awe of the poise this 17 year old is already playing him.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
2. Indiana Pacers - Blake Griffin (PF) Oklahoma
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Griffin gives the Pacers back everything they just lost when trading Jermaine O'Neal to the Raptors. The only difference is that Griffin's considerably younger and considerably more healthy than the player he'd be replacing at power forward.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
3. New York Knicks - Brandon Jennings (PG) Arizona
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
I'm still a little surprised that the Knicks passed on Bayless for Gallinari this year, leaving their point guard situation unaddressed. Jennings has the potential to be an elite level point guard prospect by this time next year and would be a dream fit for the D'Antoni offense.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
4. Sacramento Kings - DerMar DeRozan (SG) USC
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
DeRozan is another one and done candidate for this upcoming freshman class. He's a breath-taking athlete who could win a dunk contest in the next couple of years. Couple that with deep range on his jumpshot and solid ball-handling skills and you've got a player who'll play in his share of all-star games.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
5. Atlanta Hawks - Hasheem Thabeet (C) Connecticut
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
The Hawks are a tough team to predict. So with everything being the same, we give them a top-flight defensive center to anchor their defense for the next decade.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
6. Seattle Supersonics - Austin Daye (SF) Gonzaga
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
There's a lot of people who like to compare Daye to Rashard Lewis, but we think that's selling Daye short. He's an effortless scorer with nearly unlimited range and potential.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
7. Miami Heat - B.J. Mullens (C) Ohio State
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Will next season finally be the "Big Diesel's" last? If so, Mullens could be ready to take over the paint in Miami. A player who's more mature than you'd expect from a college freshman to-be, we expect big things from him in the very ebar future.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
8. Memphis Grizzlies - James Harden (SG) Arizona State
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
James Harden is a personal favorite here at NBA Draft Press. He's a player who simple does everything well. He's the type of player who makes good teams into great teams.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
9. Milwaukee Bucks - Jrue Holiday (PG) UCLA
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Holiday is an interesting player because of who he reminds you of. (And we hate to compare amateurs to NBA All-Stars, but...) the similarities between he and Dwayne Wade are obvious from the first moment you see him play.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
10. Charlotte Bobcats - Earl Clark (SF) Louisville
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
The Bobcats don't seem to have a ton of needs, which makes us wonder why they aren't better than they are. Clark is a versatile player who can play any position from the 1 to the 3.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
11. Washington Wizards - Tyreke Evans (SG) Memphis
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Elite athlete who can handle multiple positions. He's the ideal kind of player to put between Gilbert Arenas and Caron Butler because of his unselfishness, ball handling ability and 3-point range.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
12. Golden State Warriors - Chase Budinger (SF) Arizona
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Budinger may be the singe toughest player in this draft class to project. With his skill-set you have to wonder why he isn't a top five pick by this point. What does another average year say about his work ethic and desire?
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
13. Los Angeles Clippers - Al-Farouq Aminu (SF) Wake Forest
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
A sensational athlete who looks to finish everything with authority. His upside is that of a more complete Corey Maggette, the player whose position he'd be playing.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
14. Philadelphia 76ers - Darren Collison (PG) UCLA
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Save for a major change, 2008-2009 will be Andre Miller's last season as a Philadelphia 76er. Collison gives the team a solid replacement and another elite athlete to add to the team.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
15. New Jersey Nets - Derrick Brown (SF) Xavier
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
The Richard Jefferson trade changed the entire dynamic of the Nets team. We all know that it was done in hopes of freeing up enough cap space to lure LeBron to New Jersey/Brooklyn when his contract is up. Should that fail, Brown gives the team a defensive pressence at small forward, with offensive ability.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
16. Denver Nuggets - Tyler Hansbrough (PF) North Carolina
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
While Hansbrough may not be an ideal fit for every team, we think he's fit well in Denver where he'll be able to score simply be attacking the glass after the shots by Carmelo and Iverson.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
17. Utah Jazz - Gerald Henderson (SG) Duke
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
The Jazz don't have a huge need right now. They did add Kyle Korver this past season, but adding another shooter like Henderson will only help to stretch the floor even more.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
18. Portland Trailblazers - Devin Eubanks (SF) West Virginia
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
A yeah from now it could be silly that we ever talked about Eubanks going this low, but for now we can't assume anything about his freshman season. He's the kind of player the Blazers love and would be yet another potential young star for them.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
19. Chicago Bulls - Samardo Samuels (PF) Louisville
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Let's call this pick "Elton Brand sellers remorse". Samuels is a player who compares to Elton. He's a smooth player on the inside who lacks elite athleticism.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
20. Houston Rockets - Jordan Hill (PF) Arizona
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
The Rockets are another team without a large number of needs. Hill has a lot of potential and could wing up starting at power forward for the team for the next decade. What more can you ask with the 20th pick?
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
21. Dallas Mavericks - Patrick Patterson (PF) Kentucky
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
We're not quite as high on Patterson as some others are right now. But we'll admit that he's a powerful player in the low post who has shown the ability to play on both ends.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
22. Cleveland Cavaliers - Tyler Smith (SF) Tennessee
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Could Tyler Smith have the unenviable task of being the player who replaces LeBron James at small forward? For his sake, let's hope he's picked here to be another piece of the puzzle and not the next starter at the 3.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
23. Orlando Magic - Stephen Curry (SG) Davidson
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Curry is another difficult player to project because it's not completely clear where he's going to play in the NBA. Still, the Magic understand the value of a guy who can stroke it from downtown and let's not kid ourselves, Redick isn't that guy.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
24. Detroit Pistons - Ty Lawson (PG) North Carolina
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
The Pistons seem to believe that Rodney Stuckey is their point guard of the future. We believe that following this season they'll realize he's their shooting guard of the future.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
25. Toronto Raptors - Scotty Hopson (SG) Tennessee
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
This is another pick that could look silly 9 months from now as Hopson has a ton of ability and could rise quickly. But he's the kind of guy who'd fit really well in the Raptors offense.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
26. Phoenix Suns - Johnny Flynn (PG) Syracuse
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Maybe the fastest player in college basketball, Flynn is the true point guard of the future the Suns are lacking right now. He'll need to extend his range, but if he does, watch out.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
27. New Orleans Hornets - Wayne Ellington (SG) North Carolina
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Ellington is another go-go-go athlete who seems like a good fit to play alongside Chris Paul. Also, unlike some of the other current options on the Hornets, Ellington can knock down the 3-ball.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
28. Los Angeles Lakers - Greg Monroe (PF) Georgetown
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
It's hard to do much better than a player like Monroe this late in the first round. He's not as highly thought of as he was a few seasons ago, but he gives the Lakers a young, talented big who can see time at both power forward and center.
[/td] [td]

[/td] [/tr][/table][table][tr][td]
29. Seattle Supersonics (From San Antonio) - Henk Norel (PF) Alicante Costa Blanca
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Because honestly, at this point what else should be be expecting from the Sonics?

30. Minnesota Timberwolves (From Boston) - Andrew Ogilvy (C) Vanderbilt
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

[/td] [td]
Ogilvy is an interesting player who could really jump up this list if he shows serious improvement from last season. If he doesn't, he's still a nice option to back-up Kevin Love and Al Jefferson.

Nope but def 1st round

I can see him going top 5. Definitly not overall 1 though. People hype him up, he'll be solid, but not a great player.

3. New York Knicks - Brandon Jennings (PG) Arizona
[/td] [/tr][tr][td]

I'm still a little surprised that the Knicks passed on Bayless for Gallinari this year, leaving their point guard situation unaddressed. Jennings has the potential to be an elite level point guard prospect by this time next year and would be a dream fit for the D'Antoni offense.

if the knicks draft brandon jennings, allen is going to lose it.
