| |
| Worked Out: | Derrick Rose (pg). Michael Beasely (pf). O.J. Mayo (pg/sg).
|
| On Radar: | Derrick Rose (pg).
Michael Beasely (pf).
|
| Our Pick: | Derrick Rose
|
| Strategy: | Is it Rose or Beasely? The latest seems to be that Chicago is leaning towards the former.
|
| |
| | 2. | Heat
| |
| Worked Out: | Derrick Rose (pg).

O.J. Mayo (pg/sg).
Jerryd Bayless (pg).
|
| On Radar: | Derrick Rose (pg)
Michael Beasely (pf)
O.J. Mayo (pg/sg)
|
| Our Pick: | Michael Beasley
|
| Strategy: | The Heat is in love with Rose. If Rose is gone, Beasely is the natural chocie, but there's a rumor that Pat Riley is turned off by some of Beasely's antic. O.J. Mayo seems to be in the Heat's crosshair. Trading down a few spots or even selecting Mayo outright is not out of the question.
|
| |
| | 3. | Timberwolves
| |
| Worked Out: | Michael Beasely (pf). Brook Lopez (c). O.J. Mayo (pg/sg). Kevin Love (pf). Jerryd Bayless (pg). Kosta Koufos (c).
|
| On Radar: | Michael Beasely (pf).
O.J. Mayo (pg/sg).
Kevin Love (pf).
|
| Our Pick: | OJ Mayo
|
| Strategy: | Now things get interesting. Without a consenus #3 player, the Wolves are rumored to be enticed with Love and Lopez. they "love" Love more but Lopez fills a need. They will snatch Beasely in a heart beat if he drops this far, but the guards are also in the running, with O.J. Mayo reportedly becoming more attractive to the Wolves.

Brook Lopez (c)
|
| Our Pick: | Jerryd Bayless
|
| Strategy: | Bayless is the obvious front runner at this point but some reports said Westbrook and Love is in the running too with Lopez being the dark horse. Rumor that the Sonics is moving down to select Westbrook.

|
| Strategy: | Rumor that the Knicks are trying to move up to pick Mayo. Otherwise, it's between Westbrook, Augustin, or Gallinari. Walsh is supposedly a fan of Gallinari but D'Antoni supposedly isn't.

|
| Our Pick: | Brook Lopez. C. 7'0.5. 255.
|
| Strategy: | The Bucks have reportedly cooled on Alexander and Randolph after they traded for Richard Jefferson. They'll most likely pick best player available.
Reports are it's between Randolph or Alexander with Alexander looking like the targeted pick.

|
| Our Pick: | Joe Alexander. SF. 6'8. 220
|
| Strategy: | Larry Brown was raving about DeAndre Jordan but it's still unclear which direction the Bobcats are going. Trading this pick is not unlikely. There is a rumor that Lopez will be picked (if he's available) even though he didn't work out for them. Westbrook is also a target.

|
| Strategy: | The Kings want Augustin, Westbrook, Gallinari, and Alexander; but they all figured to be gone. They're trying to move this pick for two late first. If they keep the pick then Randolph is the likely target even though he refused to workout for the Kings. Hibbert is high on the radar as well.
