it was a really hard task deciding between brandon wright and al hartford for 3 spot but wright's agressiveness and consistent scoring ability is concern

[Walton_04]

Scratch Brandon Rush. He's returning to college.

[WuTangWizard]

Scratch Hibbert too. Also, there is NO WAY Acie Law is that high and above Conley. Hawks are taking him at #3.

[Cavs2007Champs]

I may not agree with your rankings, but the fact this is a very very deep draft, is for sure, people picking late 1st round and even 2nd round have a chance at a solid player.

And Sean Williams should be on your list, reguardless of his off court issues, he'll go no later than early 2nd.

[hippos]

Law, Green and Byars are too high.

Byars in the mid 20's at best.

Law in the low teens at best.

Green in the mid-late teens.

This would be my top 40 ranking. This is not where I think they will go, or my personal ranking. It is kind of a combination. For example, Mike Conley will probably go 3rd, but because I think that is a team need, and not where he ranks as an overall prospect, he is down at 7. On the other hand, while he may go lower because of his contract situation, I think Tiago Splitter is still the 13th best prospect in the draft.
