BF Draft Board: Pick #5
Jerryd Bayless took the #4 spot on the board over Brook Lopez by a whisker, leaving us with this draft board:
- Derrick Rose
- Michael Beasley
- O.J. Mayo
- Jerryd Bayless
Here's the vote for the fifth spot. As a reminder, this draft board is specific to the Wizards, and not necessarily based on pure ability.

Bust
I only saw him once, and he actually played pretty well when I saw him, but I expect Brook Lopez to be the bust in this lottery. If he’s picked in the top 10, I expect the team that selects him to regret it.
As an explanation, the game I saw him play was Stanford vs. Arizona, and Bayless was clearly the best player on the floor. The Lopez twins dominated the inside, but Arizona had, like, one stiff, wooden guy taller then 6-7. I wasn’t especially impressed with the skill or athleticism of either Lopez brother, and against the gigantic talents of the NBA, I suspect they’ll have trouble doing their thing. I can’t see either of them becoming more than decent backup centers.
