(1) Leon Powe -- 6'8, 240 -- Yeah, a little short for PF, but a solid post-scorer and not afraid to bang around.

(2) Taj Gray -- almost 6'9", 235 -- Hyper athletic, good shotblocker, good length.

(3) Bobby Jones -- 6'6", 210 -- One-dimensional perimeter defender, but show me anyone on our team that fits that bill now.

Mike Gansey
Brandon Bowman
Bobby Jones

And not that he'll last, but I think Ryan Hollins will be a really nice 2nd round addition to some team...

I LOVE Bobby Jones!!
But I doubt he's there at 51.

I like Mike Gansey, but he's not lasting this long either.

Eric Hicks - we need passionate, energetic, WARRIORS!!
Leon Powe
Hassan Adams
Renaldo Balkman
Alexander Johnson
Craig Smith
Brandon Bowman
Louis Amundson

Frankly, I don't care who we draft at 51 - as long as they play with ENERGY, PASSION, FIRE, AGGRESSION and play hard-nosed DEFENSE... (and if they can be athletic, smart, unselfish and can shoot, hey, even better).

at 51 probably powe or gansey. i think we should trade b. cook and our 51 to portland for their 30th and 31st. or do smush for 36 and 37 from minni.

at 30 take freeland and at 31 take bobby jones. its a little early for jones but who knows who will take him. freeland can be a project player whereas jones can provide an immediate defensive player off the bench.

1. Bobby Jones
2. Hassan Adams (hoping stress fracture makes him fall)
3. Kevin Pittsnogle (better player than Cook)

Jones or Powe, although probably the same people the few teams of us are hoping for too.

Darius Washington ...One of three sleepers of the draft IMO....came into NCAA with stardom written all over him,things went OK,but if he can get back the magic before Ncaa play,we have a real sleeper on our hands at 51......Nice back-up to banks...

Powe,would be real nice here.....Should be a late 1st rounder or early 2nd rounder....

Hassan Adams......A steal at 51....I think he should be at the end of round 1.
