The New Hope for Bad Teams

I have been watching college basketball since the age of on and have seen some really good college players fail miserably in the NBA. This mock draft is my own version of who I think should take who. 1) Sacramento Kings- This pick has to go to Blake Griffin, unless you want to turn into the Houston Texans with the Super Mario pick over Reggie Bush. Blake Griffin has talent surpassing Michael Beasley last year and anyone I can think of in the years past. With that size and speed he will be a good look to take some pressure off rising superstar Kevin Martin. 2) Oklahoma City Thunder- I really can see them getting Hasheem Thabeet. They have Durant who can fire the ball and Westbrook to deliver all they need is a true, good big man to help them out. Robert Swift and Nick Collison just won’t cut it. 3) Washington Wizards- I can see the Wizards getting Greg Monroe out of Georgetown. His great versatility and size can really help out the trio of Antawn Jamison, Caron Butler, and Gilbert Arenas. 4) Los Angeles Clippers- The Clippers will take Rickey Rubio with the number four pick which will give them a decent ball handler to distribute the rock to sharp shooter and rising rookie start, Eric Gordon. 5) Memphis Grizzlies- The Grizzlies will get James Harden who is another young gun alongside O.J. Mayo. Memphis is just a few pieces away from really making this team better. If not Harden then watch out for the Grizzles to take Wake Forest star Al-Farouq Aminu.
