2009 NBA Draft Grades

Atlanta - B
The Hawks stood their ground and waited to see which PG would slip to them. Teague is a solid value pick this late, though he is far from a sure thing, so Atlanta needs to keep Billy around until he develops.

Boston - C
Lester Hudson at #58 is nothing to complain about, but considering what some of the other contenders have done, Boston has been very quiet.

Charlotte - B+
Gerald Henderson is good value at #12 and also fills a major need. They should send New Jersey a thank you card for taking Terrence Williams at #11 and saving them from themselves. Derrick Brown is a very nice pick in the second round and he should make their team.

Chicago - C
Chicago clearly helped their team at the weakest spot, but I do not love either guy. Johnson is a bit of a tweener in the Corliss Williamson mold. Gibson is ok, but Blair would have been both a better player and fit at #26.

Cleveland - D
The Cavs, more than any other team in the league, should be in a win now mode. So why on Earth would they select a (very) long term project with DeJuan Blair still on the board? In Eyenga, they managed to draft a player in the first round that I have never heard of. This is the first time that has happened and no small task. The only thing keeping them from an F was that I liked the Danny Green pick and think he can make their team.

Dallas - C-
Again, Dallas is a win now team, and they took 3 projects. None of the 3 players chosen will be on their team next year. DeJuan Blair could have brought some much needed toughness to this team.

Denver - A-
Denver got a very good solid point guard in Ty Lawson who should be able to play right away. Not only can he learn from Billups, but he can provide a change of pace from him. Denver clearly helped themselves here.

Detroit - D
Only the Pistons can manage to select 3 guys I actually like and still get a D grade for it. I really like Daye, but they took him too early. Detroit had a chance to solidify it’s very thin frontcourt, but instead took a guy they have little need for. Daye is an upside guy, so this pick may look genius eventually, but it sure does not today. Jerebko and Summers are nice picks, but Budinger was the steal of the draft and Detroit dumped him. He would have fit perfect in Detroit and could have learned behind Rip and become a similar player.

Golden State - C
Curry is a good, but somewhat overrated player. Golden State needed another guard like I need a hole in my head. Jordan Hill should have been the pick here. He is the better prospect and the better for got Golden State.

Houston - A
The team with no picks may have had the best draft. Houston manage to give up very little but still get 3 guys that can really play. Both Jermaine Taylor and Chase Budinger are second round steals who will make the Rockets roster. Llull is a good point guard prospect who could develop overseas into a player. Well done.

Indiana - F
Hansbrough is a big time reach at #13. Indy is so devoid of talent that many other players could have helped them here. Bird stayed true to form and went with the lowest ceiling, most riskless white player in the draft. Hansbrough will be a career backup in the NBA. Danny Granger must be getting increasingly frustrated with the direction this team is going in.

LA Clippers - B+
This was the biggest no brainer in the draft. But, at least they did not screw it up. Which would have been such a Clipper thing to do.

LA Lakers - C
LA had no interest in being in this draft. They managed to sell off their pick and give themselves a better chance at bringing back Odom and/or Ariza.

Memphis - C
I really like all three guys Memphis took. Thabeet, Young, and Carroll are NBA ready and should provide toughness and defense to a team that needs some. If SF was their glaring weakness, this draft would be an A. But, their glaring weakness is at PF, and they did nothing to solidify that.

Miami - B-
Patrick Beverly has a chance to make the Heat, and that is all you can really ask for from a second round pick.

Milwaukee - B+
Brandon Jennings and Jodie Meeks should bring some youth and athleticism to a Milwaukee team in need of talent. Meeks will get a chance to learn behind Redd. Milwaukee still has a long way to go, but they helped themselves here.

Minnesota - C
After Rubio fell in their lap, they seemed headed for a no brainer A here. Then they used the #6 pick on another PG. As much as I like Flynn, this made no sense and apparently pissed off Ricky Rubio something fierce. It always amazes me how well run franchises always seem to catch breaks, and poorly run franchises always seem to shoot themselves in the foot. Minnesota sure did here. I like the Ellington pick at #28, but they had a chance to leave this draft with Rubio, DeRozan, 2 other first round picks, and the feeling of being one of the best young teams in basketball. They mucked it up though.

New Jersey - C-
Terrence Williams is just not a guy I am this high on. There were other guys on the board who could help the newly rebuilding Nets a lot more.

New Orleans - D
Collison is second round talent and plays New Orleans’ only non-position of need. This was a wasted pick by another team that could have used Blair, Budinger, Ellington, Gibson…

New York - A
The Knicks did the smart thing by staying put and taking Jordan Hill. There may have been sexier picks out there, but he was the best prospect left and filled a huge need. He is a better player and fit than Curry would have been. Douglas is a big defensive PG who can really score. I expect both he and Hill to be starters in New York for a good long time.

Oklahoma City - A
James Harden was not the BPA (that would be Rubio), but he was the best fit on the board. He will fit perfectly in the backcourt with Westbrook and his unselfishness and play making ability should make Durant look even better (no small task). Mullens was a great upside pick at a position of need for the Thunder. These 2 could go down as a slam dunk, franchise changing draft if Mullens lives up to his potential.

Orlando - N/A
Orlando had no picks. But, they did manage to trade for Vince Carter the night before. So a good week none the less.

Philadelphia - C
Jrue Holiday is not a great fit in Philly and a guy like Lawson or Maynor would have been better fits for a Philly team looking to win now. Holiday does have a lot of talent though and this pick could very easily go down as a great pick if he becomes the player he is capable of.

Phoenix - B+
Earl Clark is an absolute steal at #14 and Emir Preldzic is a good draft and stash prospect. The pick of Taylor Griffin makes no sense, as he was only an average college player, but all it will cost them is the price to fly him in to training camp.

Portland - B-
On one hand, Portland drafted a lot of solid players. Claver is a real talent who could develop overseas like Rudy Fernandez did. Pendergraph, Cunningham, and Mills are all second rounders who can make a team and eventually be productive. Unfortunately for them, Portland likely will not have the spots to keep them.

Sacramento - D
The glass half empty thought process here is that Sacramento got a big time prospect in Tyreke Evans and another very nice player in Omri Casspi. That may be true, but the fact still remains that somehow Sacramento managed to not take one of the 11 or so first round talent point guards and is now once again stuck with Beno Udrih at the top of their depth chart. Talk about an epic failure, you almost had to try to not draft a PG this year, just ask Minnesota.

San Antonio - A+
DeJuan Blair is such a good pick at #37 that he may actually start for the Spurs this year. He fits great with the rest of the Spurs team and will be an instant player. Nando de Colo is a very nice draft and stash player who could be the heir apparent to Tony Parker if he continues to improve.

Toronto - B
Toronto needed a talented athletic wing, so they took DeRozan. See how that works Sacramento? DeRozan has the talent to be a top 5 player in this draft.

Utah - C+
I love Eric Maynor, but Utah is one of the few teams that did not need a PG. Sutton is a solid second round pick though, and he could replace Okur if he bolts.

Washington - C
It is hard to fault the Wiz for taking Miller and Foye for the #5 pick in this weak a draft. Had Rubio not fallen to #5, they would look like geniuses. But, Rubio did fall to #5 and now they will look like morons if he becomes the player he is expected to be.

2009 NBA Draft Big Board (With Explanations)

1. Blake Griffin (6'9'', PF, Oklahoma, Soph.)
Strong as a bull and very skilled down low. Griffin is the kind of player who will come in be a force in the post starting day one. He is not a franchise changing #1 pick in the LeBron or Shaq mold, but he is an elite level prospect and a good bet to be an all star more than a few times. NBA Comparison: Amare Stoudemire/Carlos Boozer

2. Ricky Rubio (6’4’’, PG, Spain)
No player in this draft has a higher ceiling than Ricky Rubio. This kid is just special. His court vision, passing ability, and basketball IQ are off the charts and have drawn comparisons to Nash, Bird, and Pistol Pete. High praise indeed. He won over a lot of critics with his mature and tough play in the last Olympics, going toe to toe with the games best all while nursing a bad hand. NBA Comparison: Steve Nash/Pete Maravich

3. Hasheem Thabeet (7‘3‘’, C, UConn, Jr)
No player in this years draft seems to polarize people like Thabeet. A lot of people like to harp on the fact that he is not a great scorer, or his rebounding numbers should be higher. When you look at what Thabeet can bring to a team though, you see an athletic center who can anchor a team defensively and block shots at an elite level. Great defensive big men are very rare in this day and age, and look no further than the Orlando Magic to see exactly how a great defensive big can impact a team. Thabeet may not be the sexiest talent in this draft, but he will be a starting NBA center for a good long while. NBA Comparison: Mark Eaton/Samuel Dalembert

4. James Harden (6'5'', SG, Arizona State, Soph.)
James Harden is a very smart player who plays within himself and within the team concept. He is a player that makes his teammates better and is a born winner. Athletically he is better than advertised, but not elite by any stretch. Harden will not be a go to type player in the NBA, but a very good starting player. NBA Comparison: Manu Ginobli/Courtney Lee

5. Jordan Hill (6’10’’, PF, Arizona, Jr.)
A long and athletic power forward with a surprisingly soft shooting touch. Hill is still a little raw and inconsistent, but he has only been playing basketball for a handful of years. With this being a very weak big man draft, Hill is one of the few bigs that project as starters in the NBA. NBA Comparison: Chris Wilcox/Marcus Camby

6. Demar DeRozan (6'6'', SG, USC, Fresh.)
Big time upside guy. DeRozan is a tall and athletic shooting guard who can finish in traffic. He must improve his shaky handles and streaky jump shot, but if he does become more consistent, he has a chance to be one of this drafts very best players. Underrated versatility. NBA Comparison: Tracy McGrady/Nick Young

7. Earl Clark (6'10'', SF, Louisville, Jr.)
Tall enough to play power forward and quick enough to play small forward, Clark is an intriguing player in this draft. He shoots the ball well from outside and can get to the rim and score. Solid rebounded and defender, but he needs to work on his consistency. NBA Comparison: Tim Thomas/Rashard Lewis

8. Jonny Flynn (6’0’’, PG, Syracuse, Soph.)
Lightning quick point guard who can get to the rim at will. Flynn is slightly undersized, but he plays very hard and is a fierce competitor. He runs a team pretty well, but seems more at home driving to score for himself. Must improve his jumpshot and defense to be a star at the NBA level. NBA Comparison: TJ Ford/Jameer Nelson

9. Brandon Jennings (6'1'', PG, Europe)
Very talented player who has great floor vision and quickness. Jennings has all the tools to be a great player, but is a relative unknown due to his time spent in Europe and his lack of success there. Big time risk-reward player in this draft. NBA Comparison: Tony Parker/Sebastian Telfair

10. Tyreke Evans (6'5'', SG, Memphis, Fresh.)
Extremely talented player with all the skills to be a great NBA player. Evans will need to learn to play off the ball more and to get his teammates involved. He is a solid shooter and a great slasher who can finish at the rim. Excellent defender and a tough competitor. All the skills are there, if the head catches up, he can be an all star. NBA Comparison: OJ Mayo/Larry Hughes

11. DeJuan Blair (6’7’’, PF, Pittsburgh, Soph.)
Very undersized but his wingspan makes up for a lot of it. Was a very good college player who impacted his team in so many different ways. He is a hard worker with a great array of post moves. Gets a lot of his points and rebounds by playing harder and meaner than his opposition. Will need to add a mid range jumper to be a successful NBA starter. NBA Comparison: Paul Millsap/Sean May

12. Eric Maynor (6'3'', PG, VCU, Sr.)
Often underrated because he played off the radar in college. Maynor has a smooth, effortless game. He runs the point efficiently and has a knack for scoring. He knows when to score and when to distribute and he loves to take the big shot when the game is on the line. NBA Comparison: Sam Cassell/Derek Fischer

13. Stephen Curry (6‘3‘’, SG, Davidson, Jr.)
The best natural shooter and scorer in this draft. Curry has a basketball IQ and feel for the game that is very high. He will have to prove he can play point guard to succeed at the NBA level, and that is a pretty big question mark. That said, he is clearly too skilled a scorer to ignore. NBA Comparison: Devin Harris/Trajan Langdon

14. Gerald Henderson (6'5'', SG, Duke, Jr.)
Henderson is a solid all around player with good athleticism. He is often overlooked because he is a bit of a jack of all trades, master of none. But, he put up very good numbers at the highest level in college and he is plenty athletic enough to transfer that production to the NBA level. He is an underrated defender as well. NBA Comparison: Courtney Lee/Arron Afflalo

15. Jrue Holiday (6’3’’, SG, UCLA, Fresh.)
One of the big enigmas in this draft. Jrue was considered a lock top five pick last year coming out of high school, but he had a very down year at UCLA. Some of this can be contributed to playing out of position at UCLA, but a player with his talent level should still make a much bigger impact on the game. Still, Jrue is a very good defender and he can develop into a nice NBA combo guard if he lands with the right team. NBA Comparison: Russell Westbrook/Rodney Stuckey

16. BJ Mullens (7'0'', C, Ohio State, Fresh.)
Like Holliday, Mullens was considered a top five pick coming out of high school, but he did not play up to the hype. Some feel Ohio State was trying to hide him in order to get another year out of him, others feel he lacks the desire to be great. One thing is for sure, Mullens has an elite set of skills for a seven footer. He is athletic and can finish around the rim. He must work on becoming tougher down low and not getting bullied. If he had DeJuan Blair’s intangibles, he would be the #1 pick in this draft. NBA Comparison: Chris Kamen/Patrick O’Bryant

17. Chase Budinger (6‘7“, SG, Arizona, Jr.)
Budinger never lived up to his considerable hype in his three years at Arizona, but do not let that fool you into thinking this kid can’t play. Budinger is a very good athlete who has a knack for scoring. He is one of the best shooters in this draft. He must continue to improve defensively and he lacks the killer instinct to be a go to player, but he can be a very solid NBA role player. NBA Comparison: JR Smith/Brent Barry

18. James Johnson (6’8’’, SF, Wake Forest, Soph.)
Johnson is a tough and rugged small forward who is not afraid to get down low and bang with the big boys. He is still on the raw side and must become more consistent both offensively and defensively. NBA Comparison: Corliss Williamson/Ryan Gomes

19. Wayne Ellington (6'5'', SG, North Carolina, Jr.)
A knockdown shooter who has the ability to go off the dribble with a lethal mid range jumper. He really understands how to play within an offense and when to try to take a game over. He was often overshadowed by Tyler Hansbrough and Ty Lawson at UNC, but he was a major reason that team was so successful. Very solid defender who competes every night. NBA Comparison: Daequan Cook/JJ Redick

20. Ty Lawson (5’11’’, PG, North Carolina, Jr.)
Undersized but with lots of heart. Lawson is a very efficient point guard who can really attack the basket. He does not turn the ball over a lot and has quick hands. He was one of the best players in the nation last year and is a real winner. Lawson is a low ceiling guy who you pretty much know what you get, if not for his height, injury issues, and the point guard depth of this draft, he would be a potential top 8 pick. NBA Comparison: TJ Ford/Earl Watson

21. Austin Daye (6'10'', SF, Gonzaga, Soph.)
22. Patrick Mills (6’0’’, PG, St. Mary’s, Soph.)
23. Terrence Williams (6'5'', SG, Louisville, Sr.)
