Thomas Robinson from the lil tape I seen was enough. Dude is a clear bust


Edit: a 6'8 PF that's a junior? Didn't need to look at the tape really

not sure if that's really a factor. when luis scola and kris humphries are making a living these days out-muscling more talented players for rebounds, i'm sure thomas robinson has a chance to be something.

If you had a 2nd overall pick would you use it on anyone of those guys


You get those players after the lotto

Is Andre Drummond a true center?

I think the Cavs need a real center first and foremost.

But if they get a chance to draft Thomas Robinson I wouldn't pass on him. I think him an Kyrie could be a nice tandem

of course not. i didn't say anything about taking him 2nd breh. but honestly, this draft is full of tweeners and role players that only have one skill. wouldn't be a surprise to me if he actually went that high.

We just drafted another undersized PF last season with Thompson. It wouldnt be smart to draft another one just a year later. Id be happy with Kidd-Gilchrist, Drummond, or Beal.

WAY better at the 4. His an offensive player then a lock down the paint guy

Sullinger would be a good look for the Nugs. 0 chance he falls to #20 though.

Toronto like Wilson Chandler, #20 + Wil for #8 and James Johnson?

Not impossible.

Any hope for J'Covan Brown to get drafted? Every time I see Jamaal Tinsley still out there it gives me hope Brown can have an NBA career.

He really does. There will be teams in round 2 looking for a young developmental PG. This is a very weak PG class. He can get chosen by someone who has enough PF's

 

[NormanConnors]

yeah we just had to improve at the end of the season and win some games, same thing killed us last year. I was hoping we could at least get Drummond.

 

[Mr swag]

ToP 5 better I dip off into my film sessions


1 Davis
2 Kidd
3 drum
4 beal
5 Branes/ lamb

 

[tremonthustler1]

how can my blazers get into the top 5

Hope your team gets into the top 3 with your pick, but they could get the third pick by packaging their draft together.

I think austin rivers will be alot better than what people think he is.......

I don't think so. His only NBA quality is that he can get to the line (and he's not even a good FT shooter). Everything else doesn't seem to translate as much statistically. I guess we'll know if he underachieved at Duke, but I'm not on his bandwagon, I gotta admit.

people are sleeping on robinson because of his height, but he's longer than millsap and he goes just as hard. robinsons gonna be a problem

Any hope for J'Covan Brown to get drafted? Every time I see Jamaal Tinsley still out there it gives me hope Brown can have an NBA career.

jamaal tinsley is still a true pg though. i understand you're saying he's washed up, but jcovan is a very undersized combo guard. im a longhorn so of course im rooting for him though

Not a big fan of this draft. Even Unibrow has deficiencies.
