last north american white lottery pick to pan out?

Gordan Hayward of the 2010 draft.

Hopefully Dekker is more Hayward than Joe Alexander

I'm not entirely sold on Dekker or Kaminsky. I'd rather go with WCS or Turner. Whoever the better defender is between Dekker and Booker is, I'd go with that one. I don't know if Dekkers athleticism will translate to the NBA. He was nice during the tourney, but will he be nice enough to take the Jimmy Butlers, and Klay Thompsons, and off the dribble?

Deeker is hands down the better defender.

Exactly why I feel hella suspicious of Dekker and Kaminsky.

whats this shyt im hearing about wade possibly leaving man....

 

[MIAlien]

is he really 6'7? he looks closer to 6'5 or maybe I'm seeing things

Stanley IS 6'5". They list him at 6'7" and he gets to 6'6.5" with shoes on. Luol Deng is 6'7". That 6'7" shyt is outlandish. He's only half an inch taller than Devin Booker.

he is 6'7 . i think i would take Sam Deeker over Booker.

Riles is trippin if he thinks Booker is Klay Thompson.

The only reason people say Booker is Klay because they both light skin and can shoot.
I just hope whomever we take at 10 gets legit playing time, and doesn't get sent to the bushes after they make their first mistake as a rookie.

He has other things in common with Klay. Neither has a great first step and they have trouble creating separation off the dribble, they both have great shooting form, neither is a great athlete, although Booker performed really well during the Combine and that's changing people's minds about his potential on defense.

Yeah I'm not worried. Ray Lewis hit the market in 2008 and Ozzie brought him back in the end. Ed Reed left after 2012 though

Why make it public though? I'm sure this stuff happens all the time but behind closed doors. Ultimately, they do need to pay the man. He is worth whatever he is asking for.
