Cool, let's look a year ahead to something that may not happen even if we go 0 and 82.

John Wall is basically a lock for top 3 picks, if not #1. I'm not depressed to the point where I think we won't even make playoffs. I think we're better than that certainly. Wall is not happening.

they don't need john wall they already have d-will. and with a high possibility that yao is done and t-mac limping where do you expect us to go? We certainly aren't going to be a threat.

Obviously John Wall.

I think this team is good enough to still make the playoffs with out Yao. Of course, that depends on Morey's thinking, is he going to resign Artest or maybe trade Tmac for younger guys.

Go for John Wall.

No more 7 footers please. The rules favor point guards over centers now. Tall centers have too many foot injuries, also.

John Wall will go wherever David Stern tells him to.

John Wall every day. The draft coming up is deep with big men, plus I think Scola will be around for 2-3 years at his peak. Watch him blossom this season.

I know. It would hurt to be crushed between the two the Minor Wall and the Great Wall. It would give new meaning of going wall to wall. :D

I would love John Wall and I know he is EASILY the best player in next year's draft, but I'm kinda hoping for Donatas Motiejunas. How successful are teams when their franchise player is a point guard (Hornets, Jazz)? Flame me, but with Brooks I think a skilled big like Donatas would be a GREAT pick as well.

However, if I had the first pick I would John wall in a heartbeat. All I'm trying to say is, just don't rule out of the possibility of Donatas Motiejunas.

Donatas Motiejunas's favorite player is Luis Scola.

Donatas looks very smooth and moves well offensively. He's not mechanical at all like some of these other Dirk-wannabes (like Bargnani). Looks like he would be worth a top 5 pick for sure.

So now that Artest is gone and Yao is done, I took a look at the mocks for next year's draft. I WANT DONATAS. He is easily the next Nowitzki. He's not stiff like Bargnani too.
