2009 NBA Mock Draft: Mark 4

Ok with the deadline do declare for the draft gone and past we now know who the talent pool will be. Many people have said that this is one of the worst drafts they have ever seen, but I actually thought there were gonna be a lot of starters or good rotation players out of this years draft class. Unfortunately there were about 10 good player who we thought were coming out, but didn’t this year. So I’m now of the option that this is a great year to trade your draft pick. With that said I think there is still some talent to be had this year. As always this is what I think teams should do based on need not necessarily what they should do.
