I thought that was the order lol. I really like the Lottery "shows"

Thank you Mr. Commissioner. This years draft could contain three to four franchise players. The consensus best player on everyones board is the PG out of Wake Forest, Chris Paul.

Paul is a lightning quick Point Guard in the mold of a Isaiah Thomas. He has the elite court vision and decision making of a true point guard, along with a good jump shot. He displays great ability to penetrate the defense and can push the ball at all times. Even with these abilities Paul keeps his turnovers to a minimum.

He’s also a very solid defender and will be one of the best steal generators in the league, immediately.

The second guy teams covet the most is another PG, Deron Williams.

He displays the same qualities as Paul though unlike Paul, his size is a plus. His 6’3 210lb frame helps him play more physical than Paul can, offensively and defensively. Williams is a lot like Jason Kidd in some ways. Once Williams gets his hip on you he will use his athleticism and strength to get by you and finish the play. Williams plays under control at all times and never loses his poise.

Kinda

And then after Paul and Williams, we have two centers.

The first being Andrew Bogut out of Utah.

Bogut already has a NBA ready game and body at 7 feet 250 lbs. Bogut already has a very good low post game. Displays the ability to perform a variety of moves in the post. Drop steps, jumpers, hooks, and so on. Bogut can also score outside of the post with range extending out to 18 feet. Bogut is also a tremendous passer for a player of his size.

Defensively Bogut is a beast on the boards and is also a good one on one and help defender. He’s perhaps the most NBA ready player in this draft.

These scouting reports are too good. I'm ready to trade the farm for Bogut lol.

BTW, he just got abused by Davis irl.

Marvin Williams better get a bio, he was the 2nd pick after all :hihi:

And lastly you have maybe the biggest question mark with the biggest upside in this draft, High Schooler Andrew Bynum.

http://content.draftexpress.com/gall...1118081000.jpg

At three years younger, Bynum displays an even bigger body than Bogut. Bynum stands at 7 feet and weighs nearly 300lbs. He’ll likely have to get into better shape to play in the league but he’s already extremely athletic and mobile for a man his size. Bynum is extremely raw but he’s not afraid to play physical in the paint.

Bynum could have probably used a year or two in college but that’s over, he’s coming out and some team will be sold on his potential.
