If they don't trade the pick, my first option would be drafting Mirotic. He's got ice in his veins, and is still developing his game around the basket. If not, Bertans would be nice. Both kids will stay in Europe for 2-3 years, so they won't affect the cap, and they could be potential All-Stars.

If they choose players to sign this summer, I'd like Jeremy Tyler, Vucevic, JaJuan Johnson and Kyle Singler. If Gordon Hayward can play, Singler who almost shut him down in the Championship game and has always given Coach K what the team needed, could be a nice role player. At #25 you can't ask for much more.

Maybe Tyler, Johnson, and Butler will be available in the 2nd round, and probably Keith Benson will be, too.

Last year's draft was a bit of a disapointment, so I don't know what to expect.

I have a hard time calling last year's draft of Bradley and Gody a disappointment when they produced as much or better than the people picked after them. Vasquez and Fields had a better season than Bradley, that's about it.

Nothing against Bradley or Gody... I was higher on James Anderson, who hasn't played either, and I wanted Danny to buy a pick to grab Hassan Whiteside. About Gody, I expected them to pick Stanley Robinson. My disappointment wasn't based on the results, but on the expectations, but the best rookie last year was Semih, who I didn't expected to be that good.

I'd like to see them jump ahead of Portland and grab Kenneth Faried.

Who they should pick:  Nikola Vucevic/Kenneth Faried/Jeremy Tyler

Who they will pick: Reggie Jackson/Tyler Honeycutt

I so hope I'm wrong on this.

I doubt any of the guys they "should" pick will be there at 25. Sadly.
