As a faithful Syracuse fan I assure you Donte Greene is not ready for the NBA. Besides if he was to come out this season he is being looked upon as a late lottery guy.
I'm going to throw out three names that Memphis can realistically draft, assuming they get the third pick.
Eric Gordon - he can score, and we need another play maker on offense.
Brooks Lopez - probably the safest choice. I don't think he's going to be a superstar, but he is very solid on both sides of the ball, especially around the rim.
DeAndre Jordan - The darkhorse. He may have the most potential of the three. He's big, and athletic, and could one day be a prolific scorer, and Kevin Garnett type of defender. But, the Grizzlies already have Kwame Brown. And if Jordan doesn't want to put in the work, he too, could be a major dud.
