This guy looks great. He gets to the rim at will and can finish. He's a pitbull on both ends. On top of that he has good court vision and PG skills.

How is Bayless a better prospect than this guy? :dunno:
 
You're right, he can't possibly be a better prospect after one pre-season game. What were we thinking?
 
I didn't make my assumption off of the pre-season.

Lawson can score but also has PG skills.

Bayless is a SG whom we are trying to force to play PG.
 
He looked lost out there last night though.
 
Denver got a nice player. Its too bad he didnt fall another four spots.

I wonder if we would have took him.
 
I was not pleased when I heard the Nuggs had grabbed him in a trade. I wonder if KP even made a play for the kid? If he didn't, it just reinforces my belief that he was off his game on draft day.

I tell you what. I think KP has struggled closing trades in the last year or so. He didn't have one trade in the offseason and it wasn't due to a lack of trying. The week before they signed Andre, he appeared spent to me. Watching him interviewed at the summer league, he just look like a defeated man. He seemed that way then but I also got a lil bit of that last year at the trade deadline.

I wonder if he has what it takes to close the deal on a trade. Im starting to have my concerns.
 
I know he's short and he played for the North-South oriented, run-n-gun Tarheels, but I wanted KP to draft him if at all possible ... I still don't know what his projection is long term, but my guess is that he'll turn out to be a better pro than Ray Felton, for instance.
 
If KP had drafted him, everybody on here would have been freakin out about how small he is!
 
He's good. But, he's TJ Ford good. I don't think he'll ever be anything but a sparkplug type point.
 
KP had targeted Lawson, but was unable to trade up for him. I think he'd be a good fit for this team.
 
TJ Ford is a nice player, just has those injury concerns. If Lawson were a healthy version of Ford, the Nuggets will have themselves a nice replacement for Billups, when Billups' tenure with Denver is done.
 
What? You aren't stoked with the draft pick of Viktor Clavor?:biglaugh:

:devilwink:

Agree, but I go further. Pritchard wasn't off his game on draft day. He has never had a game. He had one good day when he got Roy and Aldridge and that's about it for his GM career so far.
 
That's kind of true. It's like he doesn't know what to do with himself and the roster when it's not draft time.

Last season we had a gold mine in Raef's contract and did absolutely nothing.

I really like Andre Miller but when RLEC = Miller/Howard, that's a big failure on KP's part.
 
he would be stagnating on the end of the bench if he was here.
 
With KP's man-love for Blake, McMillan's offense, Lawson would be racking up the DNP's in Portland.
