NBA Draft 2005 Thread

Picks 21-30

21. Denver - Rashad McCants, SG, UNC - Wesley person and Voshon lenard won't do it. McCants will.
22. Memphis - Joey Graham, F, OK State - Memphis really doesn't need much, and joey will be a nice player for them.
23. Houston - John Gilchrist, PG, Maryland - Hopefully this will end Houston's revolving point guard door.
24. Sacramento - Shelden Williams, PF, Duke - if he goes. After the Webber trade, it's time to draft Shelden.
25. Detroit - Ronny Turiaf, PF, Gonzaga - jmay seem like a reach, but the guy's a tenacious defender and exactly what the Pistons look for in players.
26. - Dallas - Antoine Wright, texas A&M, F - They don't need much at this stage, Toine will be a nice role player.
27. Seattle - Rudy Fernandez, Spain, G - With all the Ray Allen free agency talk, the Sonics better have a backup plan. Fernandez is a bit of a project, but he'll pay off.
28. NY (from SA) - Kosta Perovic, C - The Knicks need a center
29. Miami - Francisco Garcia, SF, Louisville - he falls pretty far, and he'll be a weapon in Miami.
30. Phoenix - Adam Morrison, SF, Gonzaga - bacup plan in case Joe Johnson bolts

Picks 11-20:

19. - Boston - Chris taft, , Pitt - I like Taft here, he gives the Celts a nice option up front.

I dont like that pick because they have that other young buck down there, i forgot his name, whats wrong with me? well i dont think they want 2 PFs

Eh, I don't think Boone or Gilchrist will come out. With his inconsistency this year at College Park, his stock took a serious hit. If he stays, he can climb back into the lottery. Also, with Paul and Felton likely coming out, he is pushed down in rank.

Picks 11-20:

11. Clippers - Martell Webster, SG, HS - This allows them to have C-Maggette at forward. pretty potent.

The Clips already have Bobby Simmons, whose had a breakout season. What they need is a power forward to replace Wilcox.

[glow=blue,2,300]DB[/glow] the bulls don't have a draft pick this season, but by god I wish they did, and I've heard that McCants and May will possibly stick around campus, and May won't be leaving. I've also heard Daniel Gibson will be staying, and I'm almost positive Adam Morrison won't be leaving (that's my opinion)

Guys, just so ya know, the only trade I reflected in there was Toronto getting Philly's pick and NY getting SA's pick, and I included people on the fence.
