After reading the thread about this year's class, it made me long for the days of Rose, Westbrook, Love, and others. Obviously Rose still goes first, but what happens after that? Try not to think about need too much as most of these teams sucked and needed roster overhauls anyway.

1. Bulls- Rose
2. Heat- Westbrook
3. T-Wolves- Love
4. Zombie Sonics- Ibaka
5. Grizzlies- Eric Gordon
6. Knicks- Gallinari
7. Clippers- Brook Lopez
8. Bucks- Nicolas Batum
9. Bobcats- Roy Hibbert
10. Nets- Beasley
11. Pacers- DeAndre Jordan
12. Kings- OJ Mayo
13. Blazers- Javale McGee
14. Warriors- JJ Hickson

So, do the Heat still make the trade with the T'Wolves?

JJ Hickson should be pretty high on that list, since he's more valuable than Amare per Danny Ferry

You serious? No question about it, ibaka doesn't turn 22 until the beginning of next season.

i'm not a huge hibbert fan, but i don't think ibaka ever develops an offensive game. i could be wrong, but i don't see it

hibbert has some game and is OK at D

Lopez over Ibaka, but Ibaka over Hibbert.

For the OP, I think Mayo deserves to be over Jordan

there's nothing wrong with a long athletic center, look at chandler. people in new orleans complained at his post game and that doesn't really matter if you can rebounding and excellent defense out of him. instead we literally have a vagina patrolling the lane.

Is Javale McGee being docked some pts for his mom kissing the judges at the Dunk Contest? Are we worried about a future LeBron/ Delonte type deal?

10. Nets- Beasley


Beasley quietly had a really good season in Minn. I can't se him going behind Danilo or Batum.

Im not agreeing with this of course but JJ had a real nice year this year and showed moments of greatness. I watched almost every Cavs game this year. (I know!)

I think JJ is a top 10 4 going into next season. For sure top 15.

no way. he has potential to be good, but he's not a top 10 pr 15 PF. I would put all of these guys over Hickson:

Dirk
Randolph
Amare
Gasol
Bosh
Aldrige
Love
Griffin
Duncan
KG
Scola
Aldrige
West
Josh Smith
Boozer
Jefferson
Lee
Ibaka
Milsap
Landry

PF is just a really deep position. Hickson is not as good as the rest of these guys, not yet anyway.
