6/26 NBA Draft Recap

Here's a quick recap of the NBA Draft.
1 - Blake Griffin - Best available player in the draft - no brainer
2 - Hasheem Thabeet - Best shot-blocker inside defender in the draft, pick makes sense in this weak draft
3 - James Harden - Very Talented but can he be a great defender considering that he has never played man defense in college
4 - Tyreke Evans- Tons of talent. Is he a true point guard?
5 - Ricky Rubio - Tons of talent. Only 18. Will probably play in Spain for 1-2 more years.
6 - Johnny Flynn - Although to many this pick does not seem to make sense and many people believe that Rubio or Flynn will be traded I disagree. I think this pick makes a lot of sense.
Here's what i think Minnesota is going to do. Let Rubio stay in Spain for this year and let him continue to improve his game. Then let Flynn play on the T-wolves and develop in the NBA. Next year re-evaluate the situation and if Rubio comes to the US then consider trading him or Flynn. This scenario is what seems to make the most sense to me
7 - Stephen Curry - Good fit for Nelson's shoot first system, however, will Ellis want out, will they trade Curry and will Curry be able to guard anyone in the NBA.
8 - Jordan Hill - Finally the Knicks didn't do something horrible with their pick. I like this pick a lot because Hill was the best available player on the board and is an uptempo forward he will be able to play well in D'antonis systm.
29 - Toney Douglas - Again the Knicks took the best available player left on the board. Douglas is a scorer who should be a nice spark off the bench for the Knicks and maybe will be able to turn into their point guard.
56 - Patty Mills - Since I went to St. Mary's I was quite nervous when Mills kept slipping farther and farther down in the draft. Good value pick for Portland. From everything I've been reading Portland will probably have Mills play overseas and then bring him into the mix next year if he plays well. They really don't have a roster spot for him and have already said that they think they'll be bringing in two rookies to camp Jeff Pendegraph and Dante Cunninhgham (Villanova).
