First Impressions of the 2008 NBA Draft
Original at 20 Second Timeout
• Fri, Jun 27
By noreply@blogger.com (David Friedman) The reason that I did not have Augustin in my top ten is that I expected teams to be wary of a guy who measured out at less than six feet tall. Yes, there have been some very nice players at that size but they are special guys, few and far between. Maybe Augustin will be one of them--the rules changing favoring perimeter players will help him of course--but I have my doubts. After Charlotte took Augustin with the ninth pick, the Nets chose Brook Lopez, prompting Bilas to declare, "New Jersey got an absolute steal. They ought to wear a mask for this one." I agree with Bilas; I had Charlotte taking Lopez as a nice complement to Emeka Okafor and unless Augustin turns out to be a very dynamic player I think that the Bobcats are going to really regret this.

He was a monster on the defensive end, blocking 2.6 a game and rejecting as many as 10 shots in a game, and only going without a block in 10 games. Though he was never going to be as physically dominant as fel...
