NBA Draft 2008

With 6.5 half inches of snow on the ground I will do a really early 2008 NBA Draft predictions. These predictions will be put on the current situation of the NBA.
1. Minnesota-If Minnesota gets #1 I dont see them passing on O.J. Mayo from USC. Mayo is super athletic and shoots from good range. He must limit TO and Bad shots.
2. Seattle-Beasley plays very similar to Durant so he wont be picked here. I would probally say it is Derrick Rose who can be a good passer. He also knows how to score
3. Miami-Michael Beasley Miami probally wont be here all year but could you imagine a year our to with a adequate Shaq, Good Wade and Beasley.
4. Memphis-Eric Gordon he is a SG who is averaging 24 a game. He would be the teams scoring option within two years playing with Gay, Lowery or Conley.
5. New York-Donte Green is 6-10 and may hit 80 threes this year. Probally will have a Rashard Lewis impact on the Knicks. But the Knicks are horrible.
6. Chicago-DeAndre Jordan no he is not Michael and he is 7-0 tall. He must improve his free throw shooting. If he stays another year our two he will improve.
7. Philadelphia-Jerryd Bayless-This guy is a complete package and point guard ala Duke J-Will.
8. Sacramento-Darrell Arthur. The comparison to McDyess is probally accurate. This guy has the perfect PF Frame. Only Jayhawk to score 10 in all 10 games.
9. LA Clippers-Roy Hibbert. Is 7-2 blocks some shots and shoots 67%
10. Charlotte-Kosta Koufos they dont have a big man and he is 7-0.
11. Portland-Chase Buddinger. EAWG. Extremely Athletic White Guy. No Larry Bird. This guy would fit in well with Roy,Alridge and Oden who are all good athletes.
12. Milwaukee-Earl Clark. He is a SF who is avereging 12 reb a game.
13. Cleveland-Nicholas Batum. Is 6-8 and can rebound and distribute. Will Be the Diaw next to King James.
14. Houston-Serge Ibaka. Ibaka is extremely athletic and looks to putting up decent stats. he can even shoot a three a little bit.
15. New Jersey-Kevin Love. Love should stay in school a little longer but I think New Jersey would pick him up.
16. Phoenix-Chris Douglas Roberts. Is avereging 20 points a game for one of top teams. He can score and he has good size.
17. Indiana-Tyler Smith. Smith is athletic and would compliment Granger well.
18. Washington-DJ Augestine. Augestine can score and shoot probally similar to Acie Law with a little better jump shot.
19. Toronto-Devon Harden smart guy who has size speed and rebounds.
20. Golden State-Danillo Galinari will fit in with there team can shoot threes well.
21. LA Lakers-Brook Lopez I would not be shcoked if they picked this 7 footer
22. Denver-Ryan Anderson. Anderson is a very good scorer at this point and since he is scoring 20 a game I think he should go in the first round.
23. Utah-Jamont Gordon. All around player who would fit with Williams and Brewer.
24. Dallas-Bill Walker. Cant shoot are do other things. Can dunk it down your throat and can knock you on the ground. Gets points on pure athleticsm.
25. New Orleans-Devon Jefferson. 21 year old with a good offensive and defensive game who can block shots and hit a free throw when you need one.
26. Detroit-Hasheem Thabeet a 7-2 Ben Wallace. Will be first rounder
27. Seattle-Trent Plaistad. There second first rounder is C and 6-11
28. Orlando-Brandon Rush he can play some SF. and he can play SG
29. San Antonio-Jason Thompson. small school product makes since here.
30. Boston-Ante Tomic with there great team they will be going tall here.

2007 NFL Draft First My Top 25 and then will see.

1. Calvin Johnson WR 6-4 Georgia Tech has great hands, great speed, great hops
2. Adrian Peterson RB 6-2 Will be as good as Reggie Bush even after missing half the season
3. Brady Quinn QB 6-4 Notre Dame will not go number one but he is better then Russell
4. Joe Thomas T 6-6 Wisconsin the last cant miss Tackle Robert Gallery missed
5. JeMarcus Rusell QB 6-5 LSU Not very athletic but huge arm. neither as good as the 2 in 06.
6. Gaines Adams DE 6-4 Clemson this guy has been very high on teams list
7. LaRon Landry S LSU a 4 year star at LSU and his brother was a 5th rounder made good

The 2007 NFL Draft will not be as good as last years when 3 perenial probowlers at the skill positions were forcasted Reggie Bush (2nd) Vince Young (3rd) Matt Leinart (10th)
I think Leinart should have gone number one last year but as Rookies Bush was on a team that went to the NFC championship game, Young was spectacular and Leinart set a team record.

NBA Draft 2007

The 2007 draft is shaping up to be a very special one. This draft is likely to have two future hall of Famers are players that are close to hall of fame status. I think however that only the big man from Ohio State should be picked number one. His game has been compared to Tim Duncan, David Robinson and Bill Rusell. The small forward from Texas will also be very special but he will not mean as much to championships then will the big man. The small forward is a unheard of 6-10 and can play a little shooting guard he is a above average ball handler and is increddible from downtown. His game has drawn comparisons to Dirk Nowitzki, Tracy McGrady and ironically Kevin Garnett which I do not believe at all. I would brather compare him to Carmelo Anthony. I think the small forward is a nice college rebounder but may strugle in the NBA rebounding. I heard one source saying that the Small Forward will struggle in the NBA for a couple years something that I dont see. I think he can average 22 points a game next year
These peoples names our of course Greg Oden of Ohio State and Kevin Durant of Texas.
Oden is playing in the big game VS Florida a rematch of a game on 12/23/2006 aka Christmas Eve Eve. and it is also a repeat of the National Championship played in early January for football that was won by Chris Leak and Florida. I predicted in my bracket that Florida would beat Ohio State in the national championship. Dickie V picked North Carolina. Here is my prediction for the game Florida 72 Ohio State 65. Now the Individual Highlites I think Joachim Noah will put up 17 points and 12 rebounds and get 3 assist. There have been a lot of players putting there names in as 8 Freshman have used there card and some of them signed a agent. Here are the players in
And all yeah there is a new planet that may be like earth maybe they have a 19 year old center that is better then Greg Oden because there are none here.

Arron Affalo-agent-UCLA I see him going late 1st are early second round as of now.
