On NBADraft.net's updated mock they have us taking SG Nick Young with the second pick. West coast Bobcat fans how is this guy and is he worth the second pick? Reading up on him they compare him to Josh Howard would we use the second pick on a SG? lord knows we need a legit one or is he the guy we look out for if Marcus Williams doesn't fall?

Thoughts?

Doubt Young will stay in the draft.

He's openly been saying for some time now that he wants at least 1 season with OJ Mayo and a chance to win it all.

nick young could be solid, but i think he would be best advised to stay in school considering how deep the draft is gonna be

A year with Mayo will probably make him a lotto pick.

I'd prefer someone with better ball skills who could help with ball movement and create shots for others (Marcus Williams, Derrick Byars or maybe Rodney Stuckey or Nicolas Batum) but I'd still be ok with Young.

I'd be more upset with Afflfalo, Tucker or Thad Young.

He reminds me a lot of Rip Hamilton. He's got that good midrange game as well as penetration.

that's a really good call Bumpus. He, like Rip, creates good seperation from his defender and can get his shot off quickly.

I'll add it to my "N.Young comparison list"!!

I see some Kevin Martin, Kobe Bryant, Dorrell Wright and now Rip Hamilton in him!

Nbadraft.net compares him to Josh Howard.

Nbadraft.net compares him to Josh Howard.


:g:

Not even close.

Alando Tucker maybe, but not N.Young

Well if he's as good as Rip then he's worth the 8th pick.

I'm going on record and saying if Brewer is gone at 8 I want us to draft Nick Young.
