2005 draft redo
I think Felton should probably go in front of Villanueva. Felton plays a premium position, while players like Villanueva are much easier to find. Neither player is probably a starter on a great team.
Also, I think Bogut should go in front of Lee. Obviously, David Lee has been much more productive as a player, but I'm not sure that Bogut has really been put in a situation to succeed. In the right situation Bogut could be a really good player. You put Bogut on the Lakers or Spurs and he is probably one of the best centers in the league, but if you put Lee on the Lakers then he is still just of the best hustle players (and not one of the best PF's) in the league. Sometimes we forget just how much of an impact the coach and surrounding players can have on a player. Especially post players who don't usually have the ball in their hands every single possession.
1). Chris Paul(A super star)
2). Deron Williams(as good as Paul but not as spectacular)
3).Andrew Bynum(quality big with super start potential)
4).Danny Granger(a versatile scorer who is only getting better)
5). Monta Ellis(once he finally heals, he may have to move up to the top because he talent and athleticism are ridiculous)
6). Andrew Bogut(Quality big that has been injured and on a team that does not utilize it's bigs)
7). Marvin Williams(nice player that is not as great as the hype he had)
8). Charlie Villanueva(up and down player that has out of this world scoring potential)
9). Raymond Felton(it took him a while but he is showing much promise as this season)
10). David Lee(dispite his limited game, has delivered with Hustle and smarts plus super athleticism)
11). Nate Robinson(if he were 2 inches taller, he would be higher on the list)
12). Jarret Jack(Has good size and skill to be a starting point now that he is getting the minutes in Indiana)
13). Ryan Gomes(has starting potential but is a great role player)
14). Francisco Garcia(great shooting and playmaking ability)
based off the 14 players that were listed here is my order.
I hear you but in Toronto Charlie V was a beast. Things in Miwaukee have not been as great though. I love Nate but until he gets a more established role or position, I have to get here there. He height is hurting him right now and also except for the end of the year he has been streaky. This was just a great draft though. Nate is better than David Lee cept Lee has a definite role and has been more consistent.
1). Chris Paul
2). Deron Williams
4). Danny Granger
3). Andrew Bynum
5). Monta Ellis
6). David Lee
7). Andrew Bogut
8). Charlie Villanueva
9). Raymond Felton
10). Marvin Williams (finally, he is chosen after CP3 and D-Will)
11). Nate Robinson
12). Ryan Gomes
13). Jarret Jack
14). Francisco Garcia
