Houston has nothing but guards, i doubt that'd make that pick. Alston, Bobby Jackson, Head.
I made the CPU pick, because H20 isn't around. I agree that they already have a lot of PG'S, though.
Remember that this site is for picks only. It's okay to write one or two posts, every now and then, but let's try not to write too many posts. If we post too much, it will make it hard to keep track of all the draft picks.

The grizzlies were in desperate need of a Center and will take on the challenge of making DeAndre nba ready and productive. Many people are down on him, but we feel this is a work in progress and his weaknesses will be addressed. He is very young.

I picked Alexis becuase rasheed wallace is not that good anymore. We (the pistons organization) is looking forward to having a frontline with Jason Maxiell and Alexis Ajinca. He will be in the gym this summer lifting weights.
