Bucks GM Larry Harris knows what it’s like to score the #1 pick. He accomplished that feat in 2005, after selecting Andrew Bogut from the University of Utah. Some say that he has been a bust, some say it’s too soon to tell. I say that Bogut is still maturing and therefore will need more time in order to fully develop and reach his star potential. This year is no different than 2005 for Harris, who has a chance to score yet another top pick. There are two elite players who undoubtedly will land in the top two spots: Greg Oden and Kevin Durant. In 2005, there was a controversy in Milwaukee as to who the Bucks should have taken, Bogut or Marvin Williams, and the consesus pick was Bogut. This year seems to be a bit different. Both Durant and Oden are extremely talented, on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. News leaked (via RealGM) that if the Bucks were somehow to get lucky once again, the pick would be Greg Oden. Others, including myself feel that it should be in the Bucks’ best interest to land the #2 pick, because of the low risk factor. Although both players have unlimited upside, some people will find a way to criticize the top pick no matter who it is. Where as at the #2 spot, Larry Harris won’t get bashed for picking the wrong guy. In addition, the Bucks wouldn’t have to pay #1 money, while still landing an elite player.
