antuwan, you missed 33. lol
2007-10-27 16:34:17 · update #1
1. kevin durant, he will be a starter right off the bat, he will be there #1 scoring option right off the bat, he can play the 2, 3, or 4 positions and creates huge mismatches, a lock 4 roy.
2. Al Horford, will not start right away but will have huge impact off the bench. he is the mos powerful guy in the hawks lineup and the only real low post threat. Big year in the making
3. Rodney Stucky, ya hes injured for a couple of weeks, but the combo guard has all the weapons to become a serious threat in the NBA. he can shoot, drive, and dish, once he comes back he will be the #1 guard off the bench for the pistons at both the point and off guards.
4. Mike Conely Jr. plays a Memphis team with few options at point guard. the team is greatly improved from last year and he will have many weapons around him. might start by the end of the year.
5. Jeff Green. No your eyes are not fooling you, i do have another supersonic on this list. Green will not have the impact of Durant, but will still help the team. he will be a leader even as a rookie, and above all he knows how to win.
a few more to mention: Nick Fezekas, a big man with a big shot. Acie Law, could start by the end of the year, can you say Capt. Clutch. Corey Brewer, great defensively, great offensivly, knows how to win, what more could you ask for?

I got
durant - After he gets over his ankle he should do the best in the class...he has the whole package ..he passes shoots...stronger than he looks....needs to work on defense but he will be the number one option which will make him have a big impact.
AC law ( i know if anyone watched him in college...but he had a little more skills than iverson at that point in his career. NOT SAYING HE WILL IVERSON....NO NO NO....saying that he had more skills...meaning passing and shooting....Iverson didnt have a shot like his or his passing ablility) With that said i think he will do alot for ATL ...reminds me of kenny anderson too...nice shot and quick
al thorton----iBEast on the boards...beast with on offense ...someone call the zoo....CLIPPERS HAVE A BREAST ON THE LOOSE the preseason he shot 69.2 from the three point line.
Al Horford, he is a beast...he will do alot this year..ATL throw him the ball let Joe johnson drive and dish to him for dunks all day..he will rebound and block shots.Acie Law by you cant double Al horford.
Mike conley ( bobby jackson is done , leaving mike to go wild make and play through mistakes...he will do alot for the GRizzzz. He plays defense and makes excellent passes . He has a wonderful range and he's a great teammate
( my sub pick but gut feeling) here is my shocker...Daequan Cook,
I think miami if they give him playing time will a Gem on hand ..he plays hard all the time..something rookies dont do ...he has alot of confidence....he will do welll..im thinking 10 and 4 rbs 3 ast which will be good for miami....he will get alot of open shots...with
wade ( being doubled) shaq ( being doubled) and rick davis doing whatever ricky davis does .....leaving him open for double team

durant, hortford, noah, thorton, glen davis not specifically in the that order, just the top 5
i think other rookies that will be good are nick young and alando tucker eventually, this year i don't think they'll play much but when they get their chances, they'll be very good players and starters in this league for a while.
glen davis will be the surprise of this draft. i understand that ppl don't think he didn't have potential and that is why he was drafted in the second round but ppl like that don't understand basketball. the most important atributes are being a winner and determination and ability to achieve goals whether individual or team. glen davis has been a dominant college basketball player his last 2 years and the summer before last year he lost a lot of weight in order to be quicker and more athletic. i think he will develop into an all star one day with the mentoring of kevin garnett.

Al Thornton, Kevin Durant, Al Horford, Jeff Green(teams will pay too much attention to Durant), and Mike Conley Jr(he'll have a healthy Pau to pass to who can score n the paint+ Hakim Warrick who can finish)

Mike Conley Jr. in Memphis for sure. He is a good, smart player entering an abysmal team with a great opportunity to make a difference..plus I don't really see him having to fight for any playing time.
