          I'm a Pac-10 guy, but the Westbrook pick surprises the hell out of me.

                I agree. Big, slow, can shoot 10-footers all day long but will get kicked out of the kitchen.

                  So you are predicting Beasley to be one of the greatest ever and Rose a complete and utter bust? Sorry but it has to be a special set of circumstances for a highly drafted player to be considered the steal of the draft.

                  And you have to consider expectations of the player when talking about if he was a steal or not, as well. People expect Beasley to be great and many think he should have gone number one. So if he succeeds how does that make him a steal? You make the Heat sound smarter than they are for the pick.

                        And when he gets pushed around, he camps out at the 3 pt line. Memphis better get used to sucking for another 10 years.

                              All Beasley has to do is be the best of THIS draft and I believe he will be.

                              Beasley was #1 on the draft board ALL SEASON long, Rose wasn't even a top 5. Then Rose has two great weeks in March and suddenly he's the greatest of all time???? There been many previous draftees that became lottery picks due to their performance in March Madness and most if not all have been NBA busts. I think Rose will join them as one of the biggest busts ever.

                                See the highlights of Love? Most were of him shooting 3 pts. He will be a bust. No power in the paint.

                                  I agree. He won't be a bust but not an all-star either. I predict 18ppg - 9 reb which isn't bad.

                                    So if the #2 drafted player is the best player of the draft that makes him a steal? Does anyone else see what's wrong with this thinking? A solid starter drafted at the end of the 2nd round is more of a steal than the #2 drafted player who lives up to his potential.

                                              Considering he was #1 on everyone's board all season long and you pass up on him for someone who wasn't even top 5 until March???? Then, yes, he's the steal of the draft.

                                                  Mike D'antoni type of player. He wants a fast flying euro who plays no defense.

                                                        We'll see RM. No sense going back and forth on it, because we wont change each others mind. Just wait to see what happens next year. Now on with the draft....
