Sonics draft- Russell Westbrook

With the fourth pick the Seattle SuperSonics select Russell Westbrook. Good pick, or not?

They had a need at PG, but I think there was better prospects available.

Re: Sonics draft- Russell Westbrook

With the 24th pick the Sonics select Serge Ibaka. This kid is a few years away, but I think he could be a player a few years down the road... I was hoping he fell to 31 for the wolves. What does everyone think of it?


edit- oh and he has 17 siblings.

Sonics will get DJ white in a trade, they trade both second round picks.

Well, to quote Yahoo! Sports Dan Wetzel, "Seattle takes Russell Westbrook, a do it all kind of winner at the guard spot, eschewing his more hyped teammate Kevin Love. This is GM Sam Presti, who learned the job with the Spurs, putting the San Antonio blueprint to work for the Sonics."

If they're following the San Antonio blueprint, I've got to defer to their wisdom on this pick. It seems to have worked well for the Spurs.
