    lol, a 7-5, 300 lb european going to to Toronto at #3 and a 7-3, 300 lb Chinese guy going in the top 10 as well. That mock sure has alot of raw 7 footers thrown in the lottery for good measure.

    Splitter was in a load of mocks from 2004 to 2007 when he became automatically eligible. He was generally considered a lottery prospect at worse and many sites had him top 10 or better for a while. He probably only slipped due to questions about when he would come over to the NBA as he had a decent contract in Europe and a large buyout.

    He had a quiet rookie season but certainly looks a decent rotation player who the Spurs can continue to develop as he is still only 26 years old.
