http://www.draftcity.com/articles/0055.htm Portland: Round 1: Sebastian Telfair, PG, High School (#13) Round 1: Viktor Khryapa, SF, Russia (Acquired the rights to the #22 pick (Khryapa) from New Jersey for 3 million and Eddie Gill) Round 1: Sergei Monya, SG, CSKA Moscow (#23) Round 2: Ha Seung Jin, Center, South Korea (#46) Grade: D+ Their draft made absolutely no sense for them whatsoever. They reached between 5-10 spots to take two of their picks and then drafted Khryapa and Monya next to each other despite the fact that they duplicate each other and they could have gotten a more athletic, offensive minded player to fill their scoring needs. They essentially paid three million dollars for the right to reach for Khryapa, who no one is going to buy a luxury box to watch. Picking Telfair just somehow reeks of a move that’s unrelated to basketball despite the fact that he’s going to end up becoming a very good player in 2-3 years (but probably not better than other players he went ahead of, who also fill Portland’s needs a lot better and sooner). Adidas must have gotten in Jay Bilas’ pocket too because just a little while back he was saying that Rajon Rondo (high school point guard committed to Kentucky) is a much better player then Telfair; but in spite of that he said Portland made the right choice. According to Bilas I guess Rondo should have been a top 10 pick in this draft. Picking up Monya at 23 really saved this draft for them and that’s a move they will benefit from down the road if he can get out of his contract in Russia with the depleted salary he'll be making. With all the hoopla ESPN made about milking Jameer Nelson’s grief for every rating decimal they could get, they forgot to mention that Monya was the last player left in the green room, along with Pavel Podkolzine. That’s the type of thing you might consider as a wake up call for European players and their greedy agents, the same kind of slap in the face that a lot of people were hoping a high school player would get. At 46, Jin was a nice pick. You can’t go wrong that late in the draft with a guy that size. 第一句話翻成白話，其實就跟現在板名差不多，在這個 網站裡選秀評價唯二在我們後面的是波士頓跟超音速... --
