Um, Lillard to HOU at 5 is decent news for us. It guarantees one of Barnes, MKG or Robinson.
 
It's probably just my homerism already coming out in anticipation of Lillard being a Blazer, but I'm getting extremely hyped about him.. I feel so optimistic!
 
I don't think they have a chance; Kyle Lowry/#16 is about as good as they'd to put on the table and that was quickly rejected.

Ill tell u what @Kendall Marshall is: of all the Draft-eligible kids, he's the only 1 on Twitter who knows how to spell and punctuate

I doubt he'll ever be the best player on a championship team, but at six I think you're getting yourself a defensive ace who might someday be a slightly better version of Andre Iguodala (minus some of the playmaking). That's not a bad get for what is looking more and more like the start of third tier of a draft.

This'll go down as a BFW special...I think the kid could end up better than Iguodala and just short of Pippen. But even if he's "just" Iggy, that's awesome at 6.

Couple that with Batum and a ballhawking PG and there's literally no backcourt that would be able to torch us anymore.

EDIT: Hadn't meant to copy Nik's before I posted. But I agree.
 
TBH, Iggy without the playmaking isn't that great. But I don't really think that's a good description of his game.
 
MKG's offensive game is lacking and raw (pretty much all-hustle/score in the paint) and his shooting mechanics are not very good. Go watch draftexpress' video on him. Those mechanics are just really bad.

It's nice that he plays hard and is a good defender, but at 6 I want a guy that has a chance to be a star. I don't think MKG is ever a star with the offensive game he has.
 
I've said it a few times. I dont want MKG either. I love his heart and desire to win at all costs, but dont think he has the skills to do it.
 
I gots myself a plan to help me enjoy the Blazers draft tomorrow. Try to follow because I'm not sure how to word this

I have decided to tier the players in a different way. Tier 1 would be guys I would be ok with if we only ended up picking 1 player. Tier two are guys I would be ok with if we pick two players. Tier 3 is three players. Tier 4 are guys that need at least 4 of them to make me happy. Tier 2 guys have to have two guys in their tier, or add another from tier 3 or tier 4. So, here goes, in no particular order

Tier 1
Davis
Beal
Robinson
all star player and alpha male 25 or under

Tier 2
Barnes
Lillard
MKG
Drummond
Ross
All star or near all star player 26 or under

Tier 3
Lamb
Harkless
Rivers
White
T. Jones
Henson
Moultrie
Wroten
Jones III
Near all star player 28 or under

Tier 4
The rest

That's not a bad way of looking at things.

The only thing that would spoil my day is a Rivers/Leonard or Rivers/Zeller draft using 6 and 11
 
Nice post MM, fk the meds really work well j/k. I dont get Robinson, but hey, thatis the best summery that I have seen. repped

If you have two stars around him, sure.

I don't think he's a building block, though.

As of 15 minutes ago, I respectfully agree to disagree. Here's hoping I am right if we draft him, and you are right if we dont
