Got the Los Angeles Clippers pick and prediction out of the way; that was the easy part. From now until #30, it only gets harder. The Memphis Grizzlies are officially on the clock.
Memphis Grizzlies
Strengths: Center, small forward, shooting guard
Weaknesses: Point guard
Inside Skinny: The Memphis Grizzlies remind me of “the little girl with the curl”; when they’re good, they’re very good. When they’re bad, they stink. But nonetheless, they have a nice, young nucleus with Rudy Gay, O.J. Mayo and Marc Gasol. Don’t get me wrong, Mike Conley is a nice, complementary point guard. Perhaps that is the problem. If Memphis expects to get to that next level, they need a court-savvy point guard who is NBA-ready and not a project.
The Memphis Grizzlies select: Ricky Rubio, Spain
