Add getting rid of a much improved Weems without a good enough evaluation and Bayless without a better backup replacement to the list. Look for Bargs to decrease the Aldridge gap this year though!...
Time will prove them wrong for not signing Brooks but at least we now have a guard, we can go into battle with!
Scouts are loath to risk their jobs by drafting players that didn't play at the same level of competition - comparing apples to oranges. Lots of examples of players who should have been drafted way...
Personally, I think Machado at 37 would be much more value in the pick and he might be a better pro (that is just my opinion).[/QUOTE]
I hold the same opinion except more adamant about it! Machado...
Never heard about Aldridge's back problems at the time. Would absolutely love to acquire Gay and believe he is a franchise player you can build a team around. People have to remember that DD & Ed...
Aldridge would have played centre and probably has played some centre even for the blazers. He would not have been drafted with the intention of playing behind Bosh as you conclude. Bargnani's...
Bargnani was a bad pick when Aldridge was still available. Even Bosh publicly stated that he would choose Aldridge - this is unusual for a player to do. He might still be here if it were not for...
Real danger with this draft...lol! At least they are in the lottery where it's much harder to totally mess things up. Looks like the premium on potential and athleticism might be too high?
The real issue is their drafting.Think the pick came as a surprise to them! In their defence, they probably knew what a good pick it was - immediately after he was pick though...lol! Don't think I...
I don't expect to change the minds of the anti Vince camp but to help clarify the situation for those who would entertain the thought of supporting him. Remember what Glen Grunwald said about him -...
Thought he was a good example because even as a poor shooter he still had the ability to stick timely shots. Kind of highlights that they are two distinctly different skill. Though, it's more common...
In no way mean to discourage you from all the hard work you have done but imo it is more complex than percentages. Bargnani came into the league with good 3 shooting and with lots of work over the...
We need superstars or slightly below superstar status players. Only the three above players from the list qualify, in my humble opinion. We are in a dangerous position where, instead of moving ahead,...
Don't like to speak ill of any prospect but Sullinger will need to become a PG or SG where he can use his big body against smaller NBA players. If he can run off screens and shoot like Reggie Miller...
Like JV not being able to play in the NBA for a year or Ed Davis missing a year of development because of injury or Babcock drafting a Center for need or teams never imagining a player would fall...
Apparently the second most talented player in the draft but not able to put it all together. Hard to make a call on this guy without watching a lot of his games to figure out why he is so ineffective...
Sullinger might not be athletic enough to do well at the next level. I would say away with a capital S!!!!
My biggest concern is that, him having the potential "superstar" moniker attached to his name means that, if he is the real deal, we won't be able to grab him with the 8th pick. Things might change,...
It is my belief that the declining fan base is a direct result of the perception that the team will never be able to win anything. They need to show the remaining fringe fans they can win with a loss...
Winning this game will be a bitter pill to swallow - probably leading to an erosion of the fan base long term.
A win is a twisted dagger in the hearts of the fans hopes and dreams for the future!!...
Good hot of the press info - means he will have to be covered on offence! Going by what's written about him, but the update definitely makes him a more valuable prospect!!
Marshall can't shoot or get to the rim and has to pass the ball before the defence sets up. Why would a defence even bother to cover him? He passes the ball immediately because it's a hot potato...
From what's written about him, he could be the second best player in the draft. Poor level of competition is one way teams miss some very good player. He is the guy that should be passing the ball...
