Bell at 26. Most likely trading it to clear cap

No fucking ducks on the team.

But dammit, we are totally gonna take him.

 

[illmatic99]

That trailblazers hat is fuckin ugly.

What. I really dig it

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

I'd rather have Justin Jackson & still have the 20th pick

Good. Good.

MEYERS 2.0 ABORT ABORT ABORT

 

[Reep]

This thread will be really interesting to revisit in 3 years.

 

[Sarni]

Patton will be good for Minny.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

MEYERS 2.0 ABORT ABORT ABORT

NO didn't move up to select Meyers, so he can't be taking about Nards.

 

[illmatic99]

MEYERS 2.0 ABORT ABORT ABORT

? We didnt move up to 10. Meyers was a number 11 pick and, that pick was originally ours. Last blazer number 10 pick though... CJ

Either way Meyers makes me sick and I am hoping this guy can just not be Meyers

 

[BrianFromWA]

9 more picks to dodge. Gotta have the Fran Fraschilla Euro/Aussie run soon with Hartenstein, Bolden, Anzejs (sp?) and Ferguson.

I'm kinda optimistic....

If he can do at least one thing well since Meyers does nothing well, it will make me feel better about it.

 

[BonesJones]

These Collins/Meyers comparisons are pathetic.

Collins is Meyers if you make him agile, a quick jumper, speed up his jumper, give him some confidence and fire, give him the gift of defensive awareness and timing...

 

[BrianFromWA]

Man, I like DJ Wilson as a player, but 17 seems really high for him. Keep bringing those late-20's talent into the teens!

 

[rotary111]

Z Collins fights like a dog.

He has that Wes Mathews kind of attitude. I loved watching him play this year and you will love him next year! This was a great pick by NO, he will be a fan favorite because of his fight and BBIQ. He is nothing like Myle.

 

[BonesJones]

If Collins was black he wouldn't be being compared to Meyers.

 

[ripcityboy]

Now I know I am not alone in this thought, but since we have such a young team..... can we not invite a bunch of ball hog SCRUBS this Vegas Summer league so we actually have a chance to see what we have. Please, for my fucking health. We will have at least three guys who have been drafted the last two years who need as much time as possible.

Why do people keep saying this? How is he not like Meyers?

What if the one thing he does well is motivate Meyers to be better?

It's not, my sleeper isn't a sleeper no more! Great pick by Milwaukee. Fits their M.O. when it comes to reaching for long, lanky, athletic players with skill.

 

[BonesJones]

Why do people keep saying this? How is he not like Meyers?

Because he's not, at all. Maybe if you watched a real college basketball team in Gonzaga instead of Oregon State you would understand.

 

[EGame]

I'd be super impressed. CJ and Dame can't do it, so if Collins can then it was worth it.

 

[Strenuus]

If Collins was black he wouldn't be being compared to Meyers.

Nah, I'd still do it. For fun.

Which is what I'm doing now.

 

[B-Roy]

Tj leaf at 18 is such a KP pick. Low upside white guy.

Lots of good players available at 20....

 

[ripcityboy]

Why do people keep saying this? How is he not like Meyers?

He's not a gigantic pussy who shies away from contact because hes afraid of getting hurt. Now that's just off the top of my head.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

Lol ok, i ask a serious question, and you take a shot...nice. I watched a lot of zags tourney games

 

[BrianFromWA]

Calipari, love him or hate him, has a nice model.

"Hey, Recruit, come play for me and 18 months from now I'll be on ESPN telling the world how awesome you are while getting drafted in the lotto"

 

[Strenuus]

Because he's not, at all. Maybe if you watched a real college basketball team in Gonzaga instead of Oregon State you would understand.

So Gary Payton wasn't a real basketball player? I mean, I know you mean now, but maybe he watched them back then too?

 

[B-Roy]

John Collins at 19....nice value.
