What's new

Following potential 2012 draftees

Based on current records and current needs, here's how I'd see the draft playing out.

Charlotte: Anthony Davis
Washington: Thomas Robinson (need a true low post 4)
New Orleans: MKG (need anything and maybe most of all a passionate kid like this who they can trust as the face of the franchise)
Cleveland: Harrison Barnes (Jamison can't play forever)
Portland: Andre Drummond (it's just the type of pick they'd make too)
Toronto: Moultrie (a major reach in my opinion but they need size and love foreign kids)
Sacramento: Lamb (since Jimmer didn't quite pan out)
Detroit: Beal (they'll fall in love with the Knight/Beal combo and Gordon will be expiring next summer I think)
Utah: Marshall (we need a point--we draft points)
New Orleans: Rivers (they'll be too in love not to and where MKG will be the leader and face, Rivers' name may become the draw and sell tix)
Portland: Lillard (they need a point badly)
Milwaukee: Sullinger (I'm not a fan but they'll see too much skill and potential here to pass, especially after losing Bogut)
Phoenix: PJ3 (just seems like a Suns' move)
Utah: Your guess is as good as mine.

New Orleans has Eric Gordon, unless they don't re-sign him, I don't see a point in getting Rivers. New Orleans would take Sullinger at that point.

Toronto with Moultire and Valanciunas would be unstoppable for the next century.
