Well if it's Charlotte (their currently last), it'll probably be R. Gay, maybe Redick, cause they need a SG.

Redick?

Do your research fellas, and stop listening to the ESPN hype machine. JJ Redick will be no better than a 6th Man, role player.

I'm thinking either Aldridge out of Texas or Gonzaga's Morrison.

Morrison would be my number one pick. Redick is great but Adam got good size (6'8")

there's no Greg Oden in this draft, so No. 1 should come down to either Morrison, Aldridge, Bargnani or Gay....depending on who gets No. 1 pick, it's got to be either Morrison or Aldridge, but I'm tipping my hat to Adam Morrison after seeing him drop 44 yesterday....although, I think it will come down to what the team needs....

Impossible for Reddick to go #1 unless Chicago gets the #1 pick, since Chicago is the official Duke small guard retirement home.

But seriously, none of the likely #1 pick owners need another shoot first PG:
- Portland: Bassy & JJ
- Charlotte: Knight & Felton
- Raps: Mike James & Calderon
- Knicks: take your pick
- Atlanta: they have so many wingmen they sometimes play 6' 7" JJ at point

It will end up being what's perceived as the best big man. I think Morrison will still end up top 3, Reddick a middle rounder.

Coming from Duke is a disadvantage for going high, a lot of scouts think the overall talent aroud you sets you up easier. Battier didn't even go top 5 as a good sized forward.

A guy I really feel is underappreciated is Sheldon Williams. He has been putting up solid numbers this season and he is very solid fundamentally. Its kinda hard for him to be noticed with all the rain Redick has been bringing down in Durham.

There's not a chance in HELL JJ will be picked first in the draft. If he is, the team that picks him is on crack.

It's either Rudy Gay or Adam Morrison. Those two guys have proven themselves.

Adam Morrison's game is JUST like Larry Birds. Rudy Gay is just an all around animal. JJ, on the other hand, will not be a good fit in the nba. All he does is shoot threes and Mike Patrick kisses his ass. "Oh, WHAT A SHOT B JJ!" bull shit. He's not good. I don't see the thrill in him.

Another topic like this? Anyway what everyone has been saying about Redick, he won't go anywhere near the lottery picks. I think he's just another one of those Duke products that looked good in college because they were on a strong team (eg. Hurley, Laettner, Dunleavy, Boozer).

You're an idiot. What makes him so much better than Dell Curry? In fact, he's won't be better than Atlanta's Salim Stoudamire, who can actually play point guard. Anyone thinking JJ, who's 6'3" BTW, will be able to play point guard needs to get their head out of the clouds and watch an actual Duke game, instead of ESPN highlights.

JJ actually is pretty clutch, but he isn't good enough for an NBA fit. He hits a couple 3 pointers here and there. *I know, a lot* But, the guy can't play point guard. He can't even PLAY. I went to the Maryland Duke game this year, and I would say JJ did ok. If you see him in real life he looks like crap, and he doesn't deserve to be a lottery pick. I'd say he should get picked up around 25-35.

I've come to the assumption that everyone is saying J.J Reddick is going to be 1st overall because they don't pay attention to college basketball . I admit that I am not a huge fan , and when I first started hearing about college ball , I only knew about J.J , but there are alot more talented players in college . Personally though , I would say I honestly don't know who is going first overall , but I do think Alridge is going to wind up in Chicago..
