Miami Heat Grade: A+ 1.2 Michael Beasley, 2.34 Mario Chalmers

The Heat came out on top in this draft. They got a guy in Beasley that will average 20 and 10 in his sleep. I wouldn't be surprised if he put up 25 to 28 a game eventually. His game is so smooth, whether it is in the post or lighting it up from three. He can either be a 3 or a 4. Pairing Beasley with Dwyane Wade makes a potent combo. The Heat are now back in the playoff discussion and when they free up cap space for next year they will be in the championship hunt.
Chalmers is a gamer as all of you know that bet money on Kansas in the National Championship. If he doesn't turn out to be a starter he will be a great back up point guard. Will definitely hit the open three from Beasley.

Memphis Grizzlies Grade: A- 1.3 O.J. Mayo, 1.27 Darrell Arthur

Don't quite understand what the Grizzlies are trying to accomplish with their team but i do know they are stockpiling a lot of guys that can play point guard. They now have 4 after trading Kevin Love for O.J. Mayo. Once the Grizzlies get rid of Kyle Lowry and Javaris Crittenton i love the Mayo pick. Mayo is going to be a star. He has the potential to average 24 points per game and be a great defender. I love Mayo as a second tier player also. If he is your number one guy then you won't win much games but if Memphis can bring in a go to guy then he will be great. O.J. will definitely be top three in rookie of the year voting.
I also love Arthur's game. He has a great mid-range shot and can make his way to the basket. reminds me a lot of Antawn Jamison. Don't expect him to rebound early but eventually can pull down 9 a game. Definite starter in this league.

Milwaukee Bucks Grade: B- 1.8 Joe Alexander, 2.37 Luc Richard Mbah a Moute

I love the trade the Bucks pulled off to acquire Richard Jefferson. It gives them another great scorer to go along with Michael Redd and a guy that can play some good defense in Scott Skiles system. What loses me is drafting two more small forwards. Joe Alexander is a great athlete and going to be a player in this league. He has more lift than Jay Cutler (the bodybuilder). He will be able to rise up and hit his jumper over anyone in this league. They might as well call him Randy Moss. The only problem is that he can not play the 4. He is undersized and over matched in strength. So i hope they find a place for him.
Prince Mbah a Moute would of been a great pick again if they had any place to play him. He will carve a niche in this league playing defense. He is like Ron Artest to me without the scoring ability and the Malice at the Palace.

Minnesota Timberwolves Grade: B+ 1.5 Kevin Love, 2.31 Nikola Pekovic
