Chad points out that although the draft itself isn't loaded, there are a lot of talented point guards... his top 10:

Rubio

Jrue

Curry

Jennings

Warren

Flynn

Teague

Lawson

Mills

Collison

Sposin' the Hawks have a mid/late first round pick, do we go for value in an oversaturated pg market? If we pick in the 18-21 range, which of these guys needs to fall to take them instead of whatever project big is available then?

I'm not sure Rubio (buyout issues), Jrue, Curry, Teague, and Warren (not traditional PG's) belong on that list.

Collison, though small, is a nice backup PG IMO.

Eh, JRue is too raw to be considered to have a position right now anyway but he is a lot like Westbrook.

Curry in college is like a really rich man's Acie Law (sorry CWell) but could be a Bibby-like PG in the pros because of his sweet jumper.
