What player will be next year's NBA Rookie of the Year, and what team will he be playing for at the end of the season? [Note that I am not asking who will draft him.]
Giving your reasons would be appreciated.

I'll post my answer after a while.

    My prediction is Josh Childress, of the Charlotte Bobcats (I think they'll use the #4 pick on him).

    On an expansion team, he will get the chance to play a lot right away. He is NBA-ready (3 seasons at Stanford, culminating in being named Pac-10 player of the year). His style of game is like Adrian Dantley's, but with better defense. He's easily recognizable (only Ben Wallace has a comparable Afro among well-known current players) but comes across as a good guy rather than a thug or bad boy.

    For his rookie season, I project him to 18 to 20 points, 5 rebounds, 3 to 4 assists, and 1.5 steals a game.

    I like Luol Deng, the F from Duke. But, what a weak draft this will be compared to last years...

    The big Russian Pavel Podkotzine playing for the Atlanta Hawks. The reason being........the Hawks need help everywhere and if they draft this guy, he will make a huge impact.......being 7' 5" doesn't hurt at all either! My second guess would be Devin Harris out of Wisconsin.
