are we gonna rank each GM's draft performance after this?

I got Derrick Rose, Brandon Rush and JJ Hickson.

The 2 through whatever rankings start behind me.

true but you also had the #1 pick.

Forget about Rose then. I got great value for Rush and Hickson with the 22nd and 36th picks. I also filled needs for the Magic, who need a backup PG and for the Blazers who could use a very athletic PF who can block shots.

Face it, I'm #1.

The Spurs missed out on Brandon Rush in rd.1, but now focus their attention on the backcourt, to get one of the best shooters in the draft. This player was top 5 in the NCAA in eFG, True Shooting, 3pts per game and no.1 in pts per possession. He is Vanderbilt's 6'6" SG Shan Foster:



Next up is no one.

and that concludes the official ultimateknicks mock draft v1.

first off, thanks to dj for running this thing. without him...we all would be lost.

now you guys can go ahead and critique the selections.

best pick is obviously CDR at #17.

Joe Alexander is a steal at 15. I see him as a Shawn Marion type (but with more O, and less D), but a versatile, dynamic, hard working player.

Donte Greene isn't at all a finished product, but to get potential like that at 27 is nice.

I think Jamont Gordon will offer 1st round production so getting him at 42 is solid.

27. new orleans - (purple012870) - donte green
30. boston - (GKFv2) - nathan jawai
31. minnesota - (nyk4ever) - ty lawson

I don't agree with 31, as I stated, I didn't pick Ty Lawson because he's not going to be around unless he gets a promise of 20 or earlier in the first round.

the latest workout reports may agree w/u on that one... seems like he's got character issues to boot... u think he'll stay in college if he doesn't get that promise of 20 or higher or go play overseas?

Lawson and Buddinger dropped out so that probably messed up the draft order a teeny weeny bit.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

the Houston Rockets select the international phenomenon... the guy i would imagine Jay Bilas to compare to the next Tayshaun Prince & our resident all knowing expert BRIGGS call the next guaranteed bust of the draft... the man who i've sent countless seconds researching endless YouTube clips of... the young neophyte successor to T-Mac... the one... the only... the French Sensation out of Le Mans...

Nicolaaaaaaas Batuummmmmm, SF out of France *BOOOOOO!!!!*




Kumar is now on the clock




damn, i'm good. *pats himself on shoulder*
