This dude has bust written all over him. I just don't get it. A big tall white stiff. Hope i'm wrong but this guy has nbdl written all over him. Who is in charge of these drafts?
 
to answer the thread title, because they didn't have the 7th, 8th, 9th or 10th pick
 
We needed a center

I must've missed Time Travelin' Jordan on the board at 11.
 
because drafting him at 6 would've been too high!

why is he a "stiff"? and what is YOUR definition of a "stiff'? From all accounts he is VERY athletic, has good hands and agility a nice 13-16ft shot and is a solid free thrower. He just turned 20 and C's are projects and take time, what has bust "written all over it" IMO is your attitude towards him and your post.
 
Why is this guy back here? Who left the door unlocked...
 
i forget, is ODENISGOD mixum? or are there two disgruntled blazers fans who like the Bills and make eyesore posts?

I hope i'm wrong but he's not an NBA player. was barely a decent college player. Wow he's athletic! Hello Quintel Woods!!

Yes i'm Mixum you figured it out!! How many times do we have to go threw this?
 
Pfftt.... practice what you preach Fams.

Well this is of course "your opinion" and we will as usual take that for what its worth, is/was he a gamble? well yeah - isn't the draft a gamble in the first place? At the 11th pick in the recent draft IMO is was a good risk/reward pick, "IMO" of course.

well, if you spent 3 minutes listening to Qyntel Woods talk you knew he was dumber than Zach Randolph. You can be as athletic as you want, but if you're dumb, you're not going to be a player worth shit.

And if you listen to Meyers Leonard talk you know he's not stupid. Same with Damian too.

Plus, you're implying he's a white stiff. 3 months ago called, they want their thread back.
 
Did somebody forget to wipe their feet before they came in? I think he may have stepped in troll poop...

He's not a gamble if he was never good to begin with, I know you want to like him because he's a Blazer but i'm just being honest.

I don't think Michael Jordan is a brain surgeon either. Who cares how smart you are? Doesn't matter much when your getting dunked on.

I don't have to wipe my feet this is a computer message board sir, there are no floors. And please stop calling me names and throwing insults my way. Thank you, have a nice day.
 
Oden's a bust. Leonard is a promising young player. Get it right.
 
Who else would have been a better pick at 11?

Tall white guys get unfairly labeled as a stiff all the time. I think he was a resaonable choice
 
7'1.25" and athletic? Also, he's already a jacked 250 lbs.

He has a feel for the game and a high IQ, he's not ready for big minutes but he was in a bad situation at Illinois. He played under a horrible coaching staff and both years were turmoil-plagued.
 
Should of traded both picks up to get Kidd Gilchrist. Throw in Luke Babbitt and Elliot Williams too. But that would have taken a smart GM to pull that off.
 
Sadly, "Smart GM" Rich Cho said no thank you.

You really should save yourself some time and read the posts from pre and post draft. This has been gone over to the point that all you will get isgoing to be snarky replies.

Oh, and if you want to act like a clown, you had ought to wear the orange wig and size 58 yellow shoes, that way there will be no question.

Had to throw an insult it in huh. Just can't have a conversation.
