Hmmm...  Actually only 4 players I liked in this draft, and I did not get any of them....  Damn...
BTW, cannot believe Greenwood went 3rd....  No question on my mind he should have gone 2nd...

I agreed.  Wondering why Lakers passed Greenwood up.

Two things....

I actually wasn't surprised that the Lakers picked the SF here.  A history of odd picks, plus a major weakness at SF makes the pick understandable.

Second, I was really hoping for Greenwood, but Cartwright was third on my list.  He'll start right next to Shane Wedge to make a very solid pair of 7-footers.

I know who the 6th pick should be but after that i'm at a loss between two guys. Such a hard decision.

I was really hoping to get any one of those 5, but I guess I am going to have to go with BPA...  And that is more than likely Calvin Natt...  I would have liked someone with better potential, but I just don't see anyone left that compares to Natt...

Bingo, and I didn't feel like being lowballed on whichever player was going to be dealt.

Hudson could be an absolutely studly offensive player.  I would have made the same decision in his spot.  Outside and Defense are the attributes most likely to improve, already having high inside and handles will be very beneficiary.

No doubt i would have taken Greenwood over Austin, seeing how the Raptors won a title behind a similar guy at PF, but the Lakers did the right thing here ... and i guess some "additional" scouting was involved here.

When you see a guy with B+ handles (who don't even play PG) turn it over almost 4 times a game, and another one with A+ (!!!) handles turn it over 3 times, then you know that C+ rating doesn't tell you ANYTHING right now.
 Shocked

Man, i long back for the days when draft scouting actually was fun, when you could zap through those college stats and didn't have to buy a pig in a poke. Don't get me wrong, i don't miss those ugly draftees left available after the top 10, but at least you had an idea what a guy's ratings meant ...
