    I think Carmelo should be no.1 because he is more polished playing against real talent that can give him competition evey game.

    Darko could be another nikoloz tskitishvili a complete bust

    or could be another dirk but he's not a safe choice.

    Lebron is going to be a superstar but needs a jumper outside of 15 feet.

    Dwyane needs a more polished game to compete on the nba level.

    So you decide

    how is nikoloz tskitishvili a complete bust?

    tskitishvili is a 3 right?... milicic plays 4. just because they are both from europe doesnt mean they are the same player..

    if i was a gm i would trade down a few picks and pick up carmelo++.. i know the supposed upside of lebron.. but i wouldnt wanna deal with all the hype.

    id rate them
    1.lebron
    2.milicic/carmelo

    if wade was 6'5-6'7" id take him higher.. but now id take him top 10.. but i dont think top 5

        Anthony may go #2 just because he has proven that he can PLAY under PRESSURE.


        I guess you can say that factors alittle bit into his draft status.

        but then again, Look at Shane Battier, He's very unclutchful in the clutch for Memphis.


        I say Lebron #1, Caramello #2, Darko #3.

            Hey Wally, what's the deal with Reubin Douglas turning down the scouts invitation to see him for possibly drafting him?

                That camp is for borderline players that may not even be drafted, in both rounds.

                Ruben, I heard, thinks that it'll only hurt his draft status.

                But I've heard he has ACCEPTED a bid to the Chicago Pre-Draft camp with only 40 players going, which is in June.

                = More competition.


                He's a borderline late 1st rounder. He see's it as being another "NORMAL GAME, against normal compeition". People already don't believe he's this good because of him playing in the MWC, so playing against 64 other Borderline players will help his status?

                IT won't help it one bit. the scouts will still have questions in the back of their head, as to whether he's really good enough or is the competition not stiff enough. The COMPETITION will be TOUGH and STIFF alright, in Chicago.

                So he'll get his shot come June, In Chicago, when he'll be playing TOP TALENT.


                Get what Im saying?

Carmelo Anthony has PROVEN himself at Syracuse. Lebron James hasn't proven anything, except that he's the best HIGH SCHOOL player in the country. High School does not equal college, which definitely does not equal the NBA.

If Lebron does become a legend and doesn't get drafted #1 somebody WILL get fired. I'm not saying Anthony won't be a good player, BUT THERE ARE TONS OF PROVEN college players not doing ****e in the NBA. Funny how most the MVP candidates are all out of HS.

                            Second of all, I was refering to HIS entire post on the GM comment. U think Anthony will go number 1? Sorry but you're wrong.

                                I see, I was a little suspicious of the scouts attitudes from the article on him at ESPN.
