Its only been a SL and a half dozen preseason games, but if you had to order them where would you put them and who would you take?

Ben Gordon
Trevor Ariza
Andre Iguodala
Josh smith

I know you liked them around draft time. Just looking for your thoughts... Thanks buddy

I was high on Josh Smith and Igudola--Im more of a fan of Ben Gordon and I like his physical prowless but I never mentioned him as a high pick over anyone that I would want. I think its going to take Josh some time, he looks a bit heavier and a tad awkward right now.

Andre Igudola is a bit better than Ariza right now,but Id rather have Ariza.

It's awesome that we're even mentioning the guy we got with the 43rd pick in comparisons with these lottery picks. Isiah obviously gets credit for that.

wow... thats very impressive to me. I singled you out because I know you wont blow sunshine just because a guy is wearing your team's uni. Its a semi loaded question because I know Ariza is exactly the type of player you covet, but I wanted to know where you ranked him with a couple other wings players regards as blue chip prospects.

no doubt ariza is a first round pick-very exciting player. from what i read it was two scouts who convinced him to take ariza and they were prepared to move up to do it.

If teams could have "magically foreseen" how well Ariza would play in the summer league and pre-season, what # do you think they would have drafted him at?

I think around 15 too, which makes him a late lottery to mid 1st rd pick. And to think, we got that from a mid 2nd rd pick!
