2. Brandon Roy
3. Tyrus Thomas
4. Adam Morrison
5. Patrick O'Bryant
6. Andrea Bargnani
7. Marcus Williams
8. Shelden Williams
9. Cedric Simmons
10. JJ Redick
11. Rudy Gay
12. Randy Foye
13. Rajon Rondo
14. Saer Sene
15. Rodney Carney
16. Hilton Armstrong
17. Ronnie Brewer
18. Alexander Johnson
19. Mardy Collins

In front of Rudy Gay.

One man's opinion. I can believe he's entitled to have an opinion.

Patrick O'Bryant isn't nearly as far off as some might think. If both LaMarcus Aldridge and Tyrus Thomas are already gone, the best big man left is O'Bryant. Milicic and Tskitishvili will scare some teams away from Bargnani, especially a struggling franchise like the Hawks. O'Bryant is at least a legit center. If the Hawks don't have a trade, then why would they select a Brandon Roy or Rudy Gay when their most pressing need is frontcourt help? O'Bryant may end up being the best big man from this draft.

As for JJ Redick still being in the top 10, that is a stretch, but before the DUI and back issues were leaked, he was a legit lottery candidate, and the quality of this drafts drops considerably after the first 5-7 picks, so a team might still take a chance on JJ if there is nothing better.

As for Rudy Gay slipping, many draft reports are saying he's slipping because he's having very poor workouts. That is not a stretch. If Gay isn't picked by one of the first four teams, he could very well slip to the bottom of the lottery, to 10-14 area.

I don't necessarily agree with the predictions, but they're not that way off. And, again, it's just one man's opinion.

Oh, and as for Ronnie Brewer, he's been all over the place since the end of the college basketball season. He should be higher, but you just never know with the draft and how teams sometimes look for need and make promises. Look at last year when Danny Granger was expected to go 5-10 and ended up slipping to #17 to the Pacers.

As a representative of the Washington Wiz, we have no interest in Arthur Johnson. So Steve Kyler is both wrong and completely stupid
