1. New Orleans Hornets - LeBron James SF 6'8'' 240 18 A- C+ C+ C+ B A
Post TC: A B- C+ C+ B A
Grade: A+
undoubtedly the consensus top pick in the draft.....the new face of the hornets....sick inside scorer already....will definitely get better everywhere else...should be the top candidate for ROY.....the sky is the limit for this kid.
2. Minnesota Timbewolves - Chris Bosh PF 6'10'' 228 19 B C C B C+ A
Post TC: B C C B B- A
Grade: A
the 2nd best player in the draft...future stud pf...could be an all star very soon.
3. Utah Jazz - Chris Kaman C 21 7'0'' 268 B C- D+ C+ B- A
Post TC: B+ C- D+ B B+ B
Grade:: A
the best center in the draft...had an amazing tc...very good inside scorer and rebounder for a rookie....definitely a ROY candidate.
4. Memphis Grizzlies - Kirk Hinrich PG 6'3'' 190 22 C B C+ B+ D+ A
Post TC: C B+ C+ A- C- B
Grade: A-
solid pick here...hinrich could really shoot the rock and play on ball defense...will need to work on his handles though.
5. Utah Jazz - Darko Milicic PF 7'0'' 250 18 C+ C- C- B B- A
Post TC: B- C- C- B+ B+ B
Grade: A-
jazz go big again here...darko looks to be a solid defender/rebounder...still very young and should improve overtime.
6. LA Clippers - David West PF 6'9'' 240 22 B C+ C- B- C+ B
Post TC: B+ C+ C- B C+ B
Grade: A+
great selection here....west is a very good inside scorer already....the rest of his game is underated...potential all star.
7. Washington Wizards - Josh Howard SF 6'7'' 210 23 B- C+ C+ B C A
Post TC: C+ B- B- B+ C B
Grade: B+
howard could pretty much do everything at the wing position...very versatile...could become an elite defender someday....he had a strong tc but does he have any upside left to get better?
8. Boston Celtics - Boris Diaw SF 6'8'' 215 21 B- C+ B- C+ C+ B
Post TC: B B- B C+ B B
Grade: B+
solid pick here...diaw has a nice versatile game...like howard he could pretty do everything (but not great at) on the court...will need to work on his defense though....could become a lamar odom type player.
9. LA Lakers - Kendrick Perkins C 6'10'' 280 18 C+ D+ D+ B- B- A
Post TC: C+ D+ D B+ C+ B
Grade: B+
perkins is probably the best post defender in this draft...the rest of his game is meh though....he's raw but should get better since he's only 18.
10. Milwaukee Bucks - Xue Yuyang PF 7'0'' 210 20 B- C C- C+ C+ A
Post TC: B C+ C- B+ C+ A

wow a GREAT pick here....galo comes away with a lotto steal...probably had the best TC in the draft...hopefully he sees a lot of minutes so his game could blossom.
12. Atlanta Hawks - Leandro Barbosa PG 6'3'' 176 20 C A- C C D A
Post TC: C A C C+ D A
Grade: B+
barbosa could flat out shoot but that's pretty much it....a pg or sg?...could be a tweener.
13. New York Knicks - Mo Williams PG 6'1'' 185 20 C+ B+ C+ C C- B
Post TC: C+ B+ C+ C+ C- B
Grade: B
knicks draft another guard back to back drafts...mo looks raw and will need time to improve...could turnout into a shooting pg/sg like barbosa.
14. San Antonio Spurs - Travis Outlaw SF 6'9'' 210 18 B- C C- C+ C A
Post TC: B B- C- B- C+ A
Grade: A
outlaw had a surprising great TC...very good selection here....only 18 and could definitely get better....i see him becoming a B+ B C- B+ C+ type player...potential steal.

Post TC: C+ A- C- B+ C B
Grade: A-
very nice selection here for the knicks....pietrus had a very good tc...solid outside shooter and defender....could become a deshawn stevenson type player.
19. LA Lakers - Luke Ridnour PG 6'2'' 175 22 C A- B- C D B
Post TC: C A C+ C D B
Grade:: B+
went down in handles but ridnour is already a sick outside shooter....will need a lot of work to become a legit pg in this league...right now he's a sg in a pg's body.
20. Chicago Bulls - Sasha Pavlovic SF 6'8'' 220 19 C B+ C C+ C B
Post TC: C B+ C B- C- B

sasha brings in a outside scoring game but that's pretty much it...defense could definitely get better.
21. Indiana Pacers - Marcus Banks PG 6'2'' 200 21 C B- C+ A- D+ B
Post TC: C B- B- A C- C
