Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

A Rivers and Robinson draft would make me a very happy man.

To me Rivers moves and has the clutch gene like a certain all-star that played for Portland and Robinson is just a guy who goes 110% all game and would be a great addition.

With the size of Davis' legs, he should be able to put on much more upper body strength.

TNT broadcast just said that one of Sullingers' legs is shorter than the other.

Probably crosses him off Portlands' big board.

A lumbering Ohio State big man with mismatched legs? Bring him on!!
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

So I just got done playing Ford's lottery simulator. It gave us Andre Drummond at six and Anthony Davis at number 1 first try. Mark it down folks, it's gonna happen :ghoti:

I got Harrison Barnes and Jeremy Lamb twice in a row.

What's Harrison Barnes like? Last year he was the shit, but this year I hear "one dimensional" and "Danny Granger". Does that sound fair?

He is like a mix of Deng and Batum.

A.) Barnes is playing much better this year.

B.) Granger is supposed to be a bad thing? Grangers' has multiple AS appearances.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

If we ended up with the 6th pick (Nets) and the 9th or 10th pick (our own), would that be enough to entice say the Bobcats for the #1 pick? I'm stoked to have two lottery picks, but Anthony Davis is the only sure thing, imo. If I'm chad, I do whatever it takes to get AD.

I just don't see it. Bobcats want the sure thing. If they get the #1 pick, they will keep it. But something crazy happened. D will said he is for surely going to opt out this summer. Maybe jersey tries and tank to get the best possible chance? It would be nice if we go 4th.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

Anthony Davis would ignite the passion to keep this team (Paul Allen) again. He's that good IMO
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

I mentioned this in another thread, but I'm a Rivers guy. I honestly feel like he's a can't miss star on the NBA level. Davis is so thin, and if you look at his body, I'm not sure how much more he fills out. I worry he'll be pushed out of the post to easily on the next level.

With 2 lotto picks I'd look at Rivers, and hopefully Sullinger. If I'm Portland though, I also look to grab a pick in the 20's and get either Terrence Jones or Tony Wroten. Both those players have question marks, but they have incredible upside and athletic ability. I really like Wroten and think he could turn out to be a steal if he chooses to come out.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

I'll pass on Sullinger. He can't get off the ground. You put someone with size on him it gives him fits.

Davis has wide shoulders and a strong base. He's going to fill out.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

Rivers would be a nice-get if we can get the opportunity. He can flat-out score and create his own shot.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

Jae Crowder.

Wow. If only he was a few inches taller.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

Does anyone know the deadline for declaring for the draft?
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

Things that do transfer on to the NBA level from college: motor, effort, and efficiency. Those three words are Crowder personified. He can be a very valuable bench player, and we should definitely target him in the second round.

He sorta reminds me of Thomas Robinson actually, but he's only 6'6.

I think he'll be fine. Rumors that he could be nursing an injury right now. According to DX he measured as 6'10 in shoes, 280 lbs with a 7'1 wingspan last season. Apparently he lost some weight between the seasons. Dude's really skilled and you look at the success of guys like Kevin Love, Al Jefferson, Zach Randolph, Millsap, etc. Sullinger just turned 20 and hes way ahead as far as offensive skillset than these guys were at his age.

He'll probably be a similar 20/10 with crap defense type PF, but still a valuable player worthy of a top 5 pick. Davis and Robinson are above him IMO, but if I was picking 3rd its a toss up between Sullinger and MKG.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

We take the best player available right? We haven't done to well in the past drafting for need.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

Royce White is a bully! He's really taking it to Terrence Jones.
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

MKG with 2pts in 33mins? What happened?
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

^that Kentucky team is solid! When you have 3 top 10 picks on the same team and they score like 70 a game....... somebody has to have an off night every now and then.

He didn't even have an off game really. Only took 4 shots.

Playing at KU has to be a luxury because a top player can take a night off and they still beat you by 20 haha

Hey mother fucker I am a Little League ALL STAR not no damn rookie! lol
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

What's weird is that EVERY SINGLE PERSON on here has a black bar underneath their name that says "all-star". I know damn well 99% of these tools shouldn't even have "d-league" under their name let alone "all-star"!!!
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

So, anyway....

Draftexpress updated their mock today:

Blazers take Harrison Barnes (#6) and Terrence Jones (#11)
 
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

So do you think we take the best player available this time around? Because don't those guys both play the 3? We already have Nic.
