Cho has always said that he will draft BPA and trade for need. I would love a Kemba/McLemore/MKG combo and maybe we can get a couple bigs through FA/trade. Not to mention the other picks we have.

The more I see of this kid...Wow. Looks like someone with an NBA offensive game who can put up points.
Larry Johnson/Jason Maxiell body
Excellent perimeter face up skills on offense, including long range shot. (Better than LJ ever had at that age)
Offensive efficiency: 19 points on 12 shots a game.
Goes hard to the basket, with some thunderous highlight dunks.
Solid rebounder, though you'd like a little more on the college level from someone with his physique.
Low post game is still developing?? Since he can move his feet on the perimeter(offensively), he should have no trouble learning footwork in the post.
Concerns:
At 6'7", might be a 'tweener, primarily on the defensive end.
We don't know his reach yet. I'm guessing around 8'10".......
Is said to have a 7'1" wingspan, which is encouraging.
possible lineup next year:
Kemba
Taylor or Henderson
MKG
Bennett
Biyombo
That's a small frontline heightwise, but there is a lot of muscle and wingspan in that bunch....
Bennett provides the perimeter skills that MKG lacks. And defensively they might be a little interchangeable....
Someone has just watched the draft express video and scouting report uploaded today and fallen in love: http://www.draftexpress.com/article/...y-Bennett-4056
If not, that's just a weird co-incidence
(Laughing) I did watch part of that earlier today. Had no idea it was brand new.Quote:

So we're talking about a PF who according to the linked Draft Express report has: lack of defensive effort; poor defence in the post and lack of a back-to-the-basket game as his principal knocks?
To miss-paraphrase ... 'you lost me at lack of defensive effort.'
That's a no from me ... assuming that Draft Express are correct as I don't know enough about the player to offer my own opinion.
Fair enough. But we are talking about an inside/outside scorer with the physical build to improve as a post player on both ends of the floor.Quote:

Any true Anthony Bennett experts out there?? Swedd, do you have an opinion on him??
cause I checked the standings and right now blazers are the 8th seed which means we would get their pick.
I'd rather get it in a deeper draft but, adding 2 lottery picks to our current roster will help speed up the rebuild.
so true 2 picks would be good for us and I trust Cho to work his magic and make the most out of them.Quote:
