The Bulls won't let Yi get past them
10. Sacramento Kings - Spencer Hawes, 7'0" C Washington (down from 7)

The Hawks would love to make this Atlanta native their point guard.
12. Philadelphia 76ers - Al Thornton, 6'7" SF/PF Florida State (same)

Post a CommentI think the big question is who picks where. I don't know if the Hawks stick in 11, it doesn't seem like they will. Boston may not be in the 5 slot either. I see them taking Brewer or Green. I don't think Ainge takes the chance on Yi with the Celtics fans calling for his job. The regular Ainge move would be to take Yi or throw the pick away in a stupid trade. I think they take Brewer after hearing the comments after his recent workout though. The real choice for the Hawks, if they take the pick, is between Law and Crittenton. I think they fill more seats with Crittenton, especially since he is a local product. Trying to figure out what the Hawks and Celtics do is like trying to figure out what a kindergartener would do with NBA GM jobs sometimes.
