Lillard's not the #2 playmaker. He's a great scorer, but he has a lot to learn about PG.

Who should be #2?

 

[VanillaGorilla]

What I want to know is who voted for Will Barton to win R.O.Y.

 

[THE HCP]

Maybe these guys know something about Waiters that I don't. He looked absolutely horrible in Vegas! For the #4 pick....... HORRIBLE!

I think it just shows how few playmakers there are from this draft.

I have a theory. Any funny rookie is an unintentionally funny rookie.

Duh! Nolan Smith was at the Rookie orientation because there wasn't one last year due to the lockout. He's not going to vote for Lillard, he can't vote for himself but he decided to vote for a Blazer.

Here's this year's.
Connaughton got second-most votes for "most athletic". I guess the rookies read the combine results... Also tied for second for "best shooter" - but that's misleading, as he only got 8.8%.

Will Barton?

I like seeing Mo Harkless on the list

So far the rookie having the best career is hands down Damian Lillard.

 

[BrianFromWA]

um, you can argue it, but it is by no means whatsoever "hands-down" Lillard. Anthony Davis led the league in PER and blocks last year. He's getting lots of MVP votes. He's first-team all-NBA and 2nd-team all-Defense. The only thing that is keeping this from "hands-down Davis" is that he misses 10 games/yr.

Each 76er assist is as difficult as 2 Blazer assists.
