This thread needs more Thomas Robinson.
Given what he went through last year and how he plays, I'll be rooting for him to do well.

I know, hence why I said I hope we tank to get into the top 3 worst records. Right now, we stand at 4, which is the worst possible spot to be in. I wouldn't have minded if we protected it top 5, but top 3? Hell no. We had the 4th worse record at the time of the trade, so wouldn't you think you could protect it a bit more then just top 3? There is no doubt in my mind Portland would have done it if we protected it more, but our idiot GM just wanted to make a splash.

2 mid round picks, ehhh.
I wouldn't mind Murray taking a flyer on Fab Melo.

Only euro prospect I like is Tomas Sotaransky, creative ball handler, and good athlete with leaping ability at one point considered a future lottery prospect but his poor performance lately has him as probably a 2nd round pick.
I think playing with NBA caliber finishers in a more open offense could make him a steal, if he falls to the second round.

Is Davis the only "franchise player" in this draft?
I'm interested in Rivers and Barnes. If those two can land on a team with some already establish guys
I see Sullinger as maybe David West. Don't know if longer term can he be a starter though.
This is the only time I actually watch these guys on a consistent bases.

Nobody loses in this draft. This draft is loaded with talent and solid players. 2nd round picks will be really good

I was thinking the same thing scrolling down Ford's mock draft. Hasn't been a draft this deep in a while.

Pro potential I guess but he if we are talking about top CBB over this decade alone he hardly would pop into my mind

Damian Lillard is no joke! Little bias since Weber State is where i go but he looks "promising"

It's not just potential, he is already one of the most versatile players I've ever seen. He can effortlessly knock down a jump shot from 16-18 feet, routinely is around the rim putting back misses or rebounding the ball, he can run the floor well, and we all know about his shot blocking. He's only gotten better on the offensive end as this year has gone along, and refined his defensive game for the better.
Averaging 14/10/5... that's nearly 5 BPG. Crazy, crazy statistic.
I've been watching since 01/02.. the other two in my top three are Emeka Okafor and Kevin Durant. Psycho-T gets a runner-up nomination as well.

It is - that's how the Cavs got the 1st pick in 2011. Stern somewhat felt bad...and with the very small chance the Clippers had in landing the first pick - they did - but the Cavs then owned it. Yay.
On another note...lose Cavs, LOSE! I'm big on MKG.
