			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://www.nba.com/news/earlyentry_draft_080501.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">list of the European early-entrants</a> has been published a few days ago, so I took the time to go over it and give you my opinion, who will get drafted, who will take his name out again and other thoughts on the list.</p>
<p><span id="more-129"></span></p>
<p><strong>Alexis Ajinca</strong><br />Outlook: will stay in the Draft and will probably go in the 1st round</p>
<p><strong>Nicolas Batum</strong><br />Outlook: will stay in the Draft and can go for a lottery pick. According to the different mocks, his stock was dropping however the last weeks.</p>
<p><strong>Rodrigue Beaubois<br /></strong>Outlook: is in the pool for the 2nd time after his surprising declaration last year which gave him a huge buzz. This season, Beaubois is doing pretty well and could stay in if he gets a promise</p>
<p><strong>Mikheil Berishvili</strong><br />Outlook:???</p>
<p><strong>Omri Casspi</strong><br />Outlook: boosted his stock during the season with some very interesting performances. But will take his name out probably and go for another season playing in Europe</p>
<p><strong>Victor Claver</strong><br />Outlook: testing the waters in my opinion and we will see his name dropping out before the deadline</p>
<p><strong>Nando de Colo</strong><br />Outlook: probably testing the waters to see how high he can go. Played an outstanding season so his stock may be at its highest point right now.</p>
<p><strong>Danilo Gallinari</strong><br />Outlook: lottery pick</p>
<p><strong>Serge Ibaka</strong><br />Outlook: has to go for a good camp in Treviso in order to keep the buzz on him alive.</p>
<p><strong>Sergey Ilin<br /></strong>Outlook: unknown but 7&#8243;6 tall</p>
<p><strong>Jonas Jerebko</strong><br />Outlook: a little surprise to see his name here. Jerebko will only test the waters and show his skills at the Reebok Treviso Camp and drop out</p>
<p><strong>Mladen Jeremic<br /></strong>Outlook: another surprising name in this list. The same that coutns for Jerebko will also count for Jeremic: name advertising, Treviso, drop out</p>
<p><strong>Maxym Korniyenko<br /></strong>Outlook: ???</p>
<p><strong>Luc Louves</strong><br />Outlook: did not see any minutes in France but could go for a Beaubois-like buzz 2008 edition</p>
<p><strong>Rudy Mbemba<br /></strong>Outlook: has been in the Draft process for ages and played a great season in Sweden. But is that enough to stay in the candidate list?</p>
<p><strong>Henk Norel</strong><br />Outlook: Steady progess over the last years for the Dutch big man. He can use Treviso to show his potential and maybe some team falls in love with him like Joel Freeland</p>
<p><strong>Maxim Sheleketo<br /></strong>Outlook: I am very surprised to see him here but this maybe the Latvian VEF Riga attack to the NBA.</p>
<p><strong>Giorgi Shermadini<br /></strong>Outlook: has a promise for the 1st round according to his agent so he will stay in the Draft</p>
<p><strong>Ante Tomic<br /></strong>Outlook: is this year the year of Ante Tomic? Maybe a 2nd round spot is the ideal for him so that he can develop 2 more years in a top European team.</p>
<p><strong>Maksym Vilkhovetskyi</strong><br />Outlook: name dropping and testing the waters. He will hit some threes in Treviso and take his name out.</p>
<p><strong>Ronalds Zakis</strong><br />Outlook: cf. Sheleketo</p>
