1.           Clippers           PF           Blake Griffin               Oklahoma

       I don't think the Clippers will screw this up. Griffin is the clear cut #1 pick this year.

2.           Grizzlies          SG           James Harden            Arizona St.

        Ricky Rubio doesn't want to play in Memphis do Chris Wallace and the Griz have the testicular fortitude to take him anyway like Milwaukee did with Yi Jianlian? Doubt it.  While Thabeet fits a need a rebounder/shot blocker, that is all his game is as of now. Is that worthy of #2? Only Wallace can answer that. Now they have stated that they do believe Mayo is a future PG so drafting Harden to play along side him makes some sense. They could possibaly ship this pick to Minnesota who reports say like Thabeet and Rubio.

3.          Thunder           PG           Ricky Rubio                  Spain

      They could go with Thabeet to add some size up front. But with Rubio they can get a star to team with Durant. Some question if Westbrook can play without the ball. If not they have some nice trade bait.

4.          Kings               PG           Jrue Holiday                 UCLA

      Holiday has shot up draft boards. The Kings need a PG and were hoping Rubio fell to them. Word is the Celtics want to move up bad and could offer Ray Allen and/or Rajon Rondo. Not sure who the Celtics would target but if indeed they offer Rondo that is the PG the Kings need.

5.         Wizards            C             Hasheem Thabeet      UCONN

       Brendan Haywood and Etan Thomas are entering last year of their contracts so the Wizards would be lacking size.  A foursome of Arenas/Butler/Jamison/Thabeet sounds damn good in the East if Arenas stays healthy and Jamison isn't traded.

6.         Wolves             G             Tyreke Evans                Memphis

      Evans or Curry? Curry or Evans? Both are natural SG's who might be able to play the point. Evans is a bit bigger and younger so I gave the nod to him.  It should be one of those two though.

7.         Warriors          PF           Jordan Hill                     Arizona

      Hill said he feels comfortable that he will be picked by the Warriors if still on the board.  I don't know if they go for a Curry or Flynn or take a big guy in Hill.

8.         Knicks             G             Stephen Curry               Davidson

      It just seems like a perfect fit Curry in D'Antoni system.

9.         Raptors           G/F          DeMar Derozan           USC

    They could use some help on the wing and Derozan can play the 2 and some 3.  Super athletic just needs to work on his shot.

10.      Bucks               PG          Jonny Flynn                   Syracuse

    Flynn could thrive under Scott Skiles a very good distributor who in high school played good one on one defense.

11.      Nets                 F              Earl Clark                       Louisville

    Some speculation is Hansborough or Blair to beef up the frontcourt. With Clark he can play the 3 or if needed the 4 if Yi, Anderson, and Williams don't pick it up.

12.      Bobcats          SG           Gerald Henderson       Duke

     I can see the Bobcats trading this pick to get either a veteran or some cap relief. If not then I believe the SG and Henerson is the guy.

13.      Pacers            PF            Tyler Hansbrough      N. Carolina

     They could use a PG with Jack being a FA so Jennings or Teague could be the pick. Maybe a big guy like Mullens but I think it comes down to Blair or Hansbrough. With Blair's knees being questioned could he be in a fall like we saw Darrell Arthur last year?

14.      Suns               PG            Brandon Jennings       Italy (High School)

   They could go with a James Johnson here or Clark if he is still available. Nash and Stoudamire are free agents next year they will most likely need to replace both.

15.      Pistons          C/PF         B.J. Mullens                   Ohio St.

    Word is they made a promise but who knows. They have some holes to fill most likely they go after Ben Gordon so a big seems likely at #15.

16.      Bulls               F               James Johnson           Wake Forest

    With Mullens and Hansbrough gone it comes down to either Johnson or Blair and as I've stated I think Blair is in for a slide.

17.      76ers             PG            Jeff Teague                    Wake Forest

    They will go PG it's just a matter of which one is it Teague or Lawson or Maynor?

18.      Wolves          F                Austin Daye                    Gonzaga

    He could be a steal and if he ever fills out he can play the 4. Evans and Daye is a nice start to the rebuilding project in Minnesota.

19.      Hawks           PG            Ty Lawson                      N. Carolina

    Who knows it's Atlanta but with Bibby a free agent a PG makes sense.

20.      Jazz               SF              Sam Young                    Pittsburgh

    Blair could be an option with the Boozer/Millsap contract situation. I think Young would be a solid pick for the Jazz.

21.      Hornets        G/F            Chase Budinger            Arizona

    Budinger provides some versatility.

22.      Mavs             PG             Eric Maynor                     VCU

    Kidd is a free agent and that could leave a whole at the point. Maynor would add some depth and athleticism to the backcourt.

23.      Kings            F/G           Terrance Williams          Louisville

    They got their PG at #4 so now they can focus on finding a wing player to pair with Kevin Martin. At #23 Terrance Williams could be a steal.

24.      Blazers         F               DaJuan Summers         Georgetown

    This pick could be traded for a PG or SF. But Summers adds good versatility being able to play the 3 or the 4.

25.      Thunder       F               Omri Casspi                    Isreal

    They have their PG and could use a energy/garbage man player like Casspi. If he stays overseas for a year or two so be it.

26.      Bulls             SG            Wayne Ellington             N. Carolina

    Would they pass on Blair twice? I don't know but they do need some insurance in case Gordon bolts. I was also considering Nick Calathes with this pick.

27.      Grizzlies       PF             DeJuan Blair                   Pittsburgh

    He slides no more.

28.      Wolves         G               Nick Calathes                 Florida (Greece)

    He has signed to play in Greece for at least a year so the Wolves will let him go there and possibaly next year bring him over.

29.      Lakers          F               Jonas Jerebko                Sweden

     I don't know.

30.     Cavs              SG            Jodie Meeks                    Kentucky

    Kind of a stunner I know. But the Cavs need to win NOW for the chance to keep LeBron. Meeks is a great scorer which LeBron needs.

31.    Kings           PG              Darren Collison              UCLA

32.    Wizards       PG              Patty Mills                         St. Mary's

33.     Blazers        PG             Rodrigue Beaubois       France

34.    Nuggets      G                 Toney Douglas              Florida St.

35.    Pistons        F/C              Josh Heyvelt                  Gonzaga

36.     Grizzlies      F                  Victor Claver                  Spain

37.    Spurs            G                 Nando De Colo             France

38.    Blazers         SG               Marcus Thorton            LSU

39.    Pistons         F                  Derrick Brown               Xavier

40.    Bobcats        PF               Taj Gibson                     USC

41.    Bucks            PF              DeMarre Carroll            Missouri

42.    Lakers          F/G               Danny Green                N. Carolina

43.    Heat              SG                Jermaine Taylor          Central Florida

44.   Pistons          SG              Sergey Gladyr                Ukraine

45.   Wolves           PF               Jeff Pendergraph          Arizona St.

46.   Cavs               PF               Jon Brockman               Washington

47.    Wolves          G                 Jack McClinton              Miami

48.    Suns              G/F              Lee Cummard              BYU

49.    Hawks           G                 Daniel Hackett              USC

50.    Jazz                PF                Henk Norel                   Netherlands

51.    Spurs             F                  Robert Dozier               Memphis

52.    Pacers           G                  Patrick Beverly             Ukraine (Arkansas)

53.   Spurs             PG                Sergio Llull                   Spain

54.    Bobcats         G/F              Paul Harris                   Syracuse

55.    Blazers          SG                Dionte Christmas       Temple

56.    Blazers          PF                Dante Cunningham    Villanova

57.    Suns               SF               Joe Ingles                     Australia

58.    Celtics           PF                Ahmad Nivins               St. Joe's

59.    Lakers           PF               Leo Lyons                      Missouri

60.    Cavs              PG                A.J. Price                       UCONN
