2003-2012 NBA Re-Draft: Based Upon Potential

[bosoxlover12]

I was just thinking of this randomly, thought it was interesting

Ranking 1-30, how would each player be drafted, SOLELY based upon how we think they will do in the NBA. Like guys like Darko and Thabeet go high in this, when late first rounders like Rondo don't go so high.



I was thinking of this in terms of how Anthony Davis is being compared to others. Like where does he place on this list.

 

[elcheato]

Davis would be 3rd behind LeBron and Oden.

 

[Hurricane Season]

1. Lebron James
2. Greg Oden
3. Kevin Durant
4. Anthony Davis
5. Blake Griffin
6. Dwight Howard
7. Derrick Rose
8. Emeka Okafor
9. John Wall
10. Darko
11. Michael Beasley
12. Marvin Williams
13. Carmelo
14. Kyrie Irving
15. Chris Paul
16. Hasheem Thabeet
17. Tyrus Thomas
18. Rudy Gay
19. Brandan Wright
20. Derrick Favors
21. Andrea Bargnani
22. Demarcus Cousins
23. Andrew Bogut
24. Ben Gordon
25. Brandon Jennings
26. Chris Bosh
27. Yi Jianlian
28. Jerryd Bayless
29. Thad Young
30. Brook Lopez

You weren't thinking of this randomly, you got the idea from the shit ESPN did a few days ago, ranking all the No. 1 picks, then you just changed it a little

I haven't watched ESPN since the day after the Finals cuz of work, so no it's not lol

It wasn't on ESPN the channel, it was on ESPN.com

 

[bosoxlover12]

ESPN.com doesn't load on my computer for some reason


Irrelevant to where it was, I never saw it

 

[Hurricane Season]

SOMEBODY AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH MY LIST. I DID ALL 30, GODDAMMIT

Doesn't make much sense to me, you put Brook Lopez on there but not guys who went higher than him in his own draft class.

 

[Pugz]

brook was argued to be in the top 5 until the draft actually happened.

Based on potential.

There are guys drafted in the 15-20 range in most drafts that have higher ceilings than players drafted ahead of them, but usually aren't near as NBA ready as others.

That being said, I sort of just threw together names after about 20. It's an arbitrary list, and pretty hard to put together.

 

[The Young One]

I wouldn't pick Anthony Davis over D-Rose/Blake..I'd pick him over Wall though.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Blake Griffin? I'd take him over Blake.

 

[RipCity32]

I thought Blake wouldn't be that good to be honest.

 

[Pugz]

ive been saying blake can be a kemp type player or kg if he works hard. i still stand by that. his D wont be that of kg though.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I'm not a big Blake Griffin fan to be completely honest, though he's fun to watch.

 

[Pugz]

hes going to get his shot better and a better post game over the next few years. hes going to be a career 20/10 type player. i still think id take AD over him though.

 

[The Young One]

Blake was 20/10 as a rookie..Don't see AD approaching that

 

[Pugz]

right now i dont see it but i still think he has more potential because he can change the game on defense. if they came out in the same draft i think 8/10 gms would take AD

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Blakes game is more limited.
