Much more athletic than Millsap, better ball handler, a rich mans Paul Millsap.

Amare is his ceiling I think, but if you get a rich mans paul millsap, thats pretty good too.
 
T-Rob is a MONSTER physically. I wouldn't mind him playing next to DMC, cause then you have the gifted skill (DMC) with the motor/athleticism (TR) to complement each other nicely, with Jason Thompson coming off the bench.

If they get the time necessary for those picks to develop a little and keep aldridge they would be factors in the west no doubt

Feel the same way.. Dude is gonna be good 
Steal whoever gets him. 
I think Royce White will be better. He's an even bigger sleeper than Jones. 
If White was on a more high profile team and didn't have those anxiety issues, NBA scouts would look at him for who he is and he would be a lottery pick. I wouldn't mind my team taking him.
 
Robinson = High floor, medium ceiling

At the very worse, he'll play hard, rebound and probably not pass the ball much.

At the end of the day... I always ask who are they going to guard, if ends up in the East he'll be fine, if somehow a West team gets him

#2 is fit: 

TRob +Wall is nice 

TRob in Charlotte or Cleveland is a bad fit imo
 
Hopefully Kings pick up Drummond. Didn't really pay attention to him in college, but his game seems to compliment Cousins well. More of an above the rim player and shot blocker plus he can pass the ball. We got lucky with the 5th pick once so maybe we can again. 
 
Anyone else think T-Rob is the most NBA ready player? I feel he may never be a Superstar at the next level but depending on who drafts him, he'll be ready to ball day 1.

Nobody knows?

They smooth skipped over your question. But, I think the teams determine/negotiate which picks will be protected.

I think that he'd be passing his ceiling if he reached Amare offensively. Assuming you mean pre-no-lift and back injury Amare.
 
Guys, let's be serious. He's going to the Hornets. No reason to waste your time with fake trade scenarios. 
 
Chances looking good MKG falls to us at 3, but Charlotte would be crazy not to consider a trade for the second pick especially for more pics. Ill be happy with Robinson if someone gets MKG at 2 though.

I think he could move them into the top 7 for sure.They add their first rounder, maybe top 5....when you think about it, George hill was worth a lottery pick.

I agree that Royce is better, but I disagree with him falling out of the lottery.Talent wise, White is top 5, and I could care less about the baggage, his size x handle = lotto

As much as I hate duke. Even I wouldn't dare put ar in the same breath as Langdon......William Avery maybe

I keed
 
I personally like Royce White he has a real smooth game. I think he will fall though because his game and off the court issues may remind a lot of teams of Michael Beasley. Plus their is the  fact that both of them are twenners between Small forward & Power forward
