WRG 2011 Mock Draft - #21 Portland Trail Blazers

We don't want to rely on Marcus Camby and Greg Oden to provide us with toughness in our frontcourt because they are rarely in our frontcourt.

Damn this draft. There aren't even any undersized bigs we can take here.  There isn't even a reach who suits our needs.  This is unfair.

So we'll have to table that and hope we can get someone better than the Chris Johnsons and Earl Barrons we had to use last year in a trade for Andre Miller.

Since that's the way we must go, we'll add to the PG stable of Armon Johnson and Patty Mills and up the odds that we will have a decent NBA starter at that position next season.

So which one of the available PGs might be able to break out sooner rather than later?

Most of these players are either projects or undersized, but there is a guy who is a bit older with good size who we think can give us both the court sense and scoring Miller did (and maybe even some defense Miller didn't).

We'll take the straw that stirs our half-caf skim latte,  Reggie Jackson.


Mr. June?
