Same, but I think he's solidified himself thus far. Can't see him being there at #6.

To me, of the general Top-6, it seems like Beal will be the most likely to fall to #6.

Right, which would take the 6 plus some change to move up to get Robinson. That change isn't the 11th pick either. Maybe a 2nd rounder or Babbit at most, but switching our pick for Robinson is something that could be very easily done without much assets going back in exchange. Teams are willing to move down to collect an extra small asset as there is no sure-fire superstar between 2 and 6.
 
Hell no! I would much rather have whatever we can get at 6 and 11 then Robinson!
 
We still have our $3mil cash to use in a trade this year. Maybe we can buy a later first round pick from someone and use that to move up. I think TRob is worth 6 + 11, but the market rate will probably be a lot lower.

MOve up for whoever at 2 and buy a pick for Moe Harkless or Terrence Ross? Will they last?

Sounds like I need to give Meyers Leonard and Fab Melo a bump in my mock draft. NBA guys really excited about them after the Combine today.
 
You can't determine by raw numbers.

Is Lillard and PJIII worth Robinson? (fill in your own players, Rivers? Ross?)

For me, no.

no way! scouts excited about 7 footers in workouts?? :lol:
 
Can't wait to see who is falling since EVERY FUCKING BODY is moving up!
 
I was thinking about this a few days ago, and we've had quite a bit of history of moving around in the lotto.

In 2008: the difference between #13 (Brandon rush) + Ike diogu and #11 (Bayless) was Jack and McRoberts.
In 2006: the difference between #4 (Tyrus Thomas) and #2 (LA) was Viktor Khryapa.
In 2006: the difference between #7 (Foye) and #6 (BRoy) was $.
in 2005: the diffrence between #6 (Marty) and #3 (Deron) was pick #27 (Kleiza —> Jack).

Maybe 6 + 11 for 2 is overpaying.
 
Oh God. The Beal love. I just don't get it. I'd be slightly disappointed if we got him at 6. If we moved up to 2 to get him, I'd be supremely pissed.

Totally agree!

But T-Rob would probably at least be entertaining off the court (if he ended up being mediocre on it).

Exactly. I like Beal more than a lot of people I know, but Fez takes it to another level. We get it. You like Beal better than anyone but Davis.

I'd take him at 3 after Davis and T-Rob, but it is NOT worth trading up for him. The difference is not that big between him and another other player going to be avaliable. With our roster in the shape it is, we need as much talent as possible.

Me too. He even thinks he's a 1/2 tweeter. He doesn't penetrate or pass well. At 6 I would be disappointed that he was our pick. Moving up for him would be like Nolan Smith all over again.

I question their eye for talent.

And considering how much love everyone else in the Top-6 has received today, there's a good chance that Beal could be around at No. 6. I'd rather take the chance and get Beal at No. 6 (and still have No. 11), than using both picks to move up and take Beal.
 
Reep said:
What do you like better about Beal over Lillard? He is younger and rebounded better. Anything else?

Fez can question people's analysis of the talent. I question Fez's management of the team (I trust Chad more than him). When you're a young team with a whole lotta holes to fill..... The talent in this draft is so equal, that it would not be wise to trade 6 and 11 to move up a few spots to draft a guy that has a decent chance of being around at 6 anyway. And if he's not? Then you go with the BPA at that point.

Drummond meeting with the wizards, cavs, bobcats, and kings. Met with the Blazers yesterday. Thinks his range is 2-5.

People keep asking about Perry Jones. He's an NBA Live creation. 6'11, built, freakishly athletic '3'?! That just sounds made up.


A pizza delivery guy I know thinks he would remind me of Uncle Cliffy a bit

One of the most impressive guys today from what I was told. RT @NYReign1247: What are they saying about Harkless?


Harkless is going to move up into the top 10, IMO

If he gets it he could be Uncle Cliffy ... I worry he's going to be more Anthony Randolph.
